In Real Gym, the children have been focussing on their creative skills.
They are learning to:
- change tactics, rules or tasks to make activities more fun or more challenging.
- respond imaginatively to different situations.
- use variety and creativity to engage an audience.
They have thoroughly enjoyed using hoops, mats, ropes, balls etc to extend their creativity and make a sequence of linked movements, working individually, with a partner and in small groups. They also use, benches and the larger gymnastic equipment.
In outdoor PE, the children have been working on their cognitive skills.
They are learning to:
- explain what they are doing well.
- identify areas for improvement.
- understand ways (criteria) to judge performance.
- suggest patterns of play which will increase chances of success.
- develop methods to outwit opponents.
They have been developing skills to use and adapt traditional games such as a bean bag raid.
