All classes have been doing tennis in PE.  With the weather starting to improve, we have been able to get into the multi court where there is much more room.

TERM 4

All classes will be swimming for 6 weeks from the 26th of April.

This week in gym, P2/3/4 played 2 v 2 hoop ball.  This is a throwing and catching game, scoring by bouncing the ball in the opponents hoop.  Ollie and Sydney showed amazing defending skills by blocking their hoop, but also when finishing an attack they both moved very quickly back into a defense position.  They earned themselves Team of the Day for their outstanding work.  Well done boys.

 

All the classes have been doing invasion games.  We have been developing our skills for the different games, mainly focusing on basketball and football.  We have been learning about attack and defense.  We have also considered other skills that we need in games, like team work, decision making and communication.

Here are some pictures of the classes in action.

Happy New Year everyone and welcome to Term 3 PE.

All classes will be starting with Invasion Games with Respect and Tolerance, followed by Tennis with Cue Recognition.

We will be outside as much as possible so please dress appropriately.

I am looking forward to seeing you all next week and getting started on a new activity.

In PE we are doing Christmas activities.  This week’s games focused on stamina, co-operation, observation, creativity, tactics, aiming and decision making.  We had great fun finding Christmas pictures, hitting snowmen with snowballs, having a snow ball fight and making snowmen.

Wow, the kids have amazed me so far.  I have added some of the great work below.  There is a post for each class, but they are quite long so you may have to scroll down a lot to find your child’s class.

Watch out for more posts showing what we are up to in PE.

We have been learning to roll, jump, balance and take our weight on our hands in handstands and cartwheels.  Here are some pictures and videos of our work so far.

We have been doing lots of great work in gymnastics, learning to jump, balance, roll and bunny hop.  Here are some pictures and videos from our jumps and balances.

Jumps

The class  learnt that there are only 5  ways you can take off and land, but you can change the action in the air to create hundreds of different jumps.  We focused on landing and staying on our feet by bending our knees slightly.  Here are some of our jumps.

The class have been working really hard on gymnastics.  So far we have covered several themes including jumps, balances, partner balances, rolls, handstands and cartwheels.  Here are some of our highlights.
