PE Week 3 Gymnastics Equipment
Density Discovery!
In P5/6 this term we are looking at science and how water and other liquids have different states and how they can mix and change states. Â We learned about density this week, and why things float or sink. we measured the density of 4 different liquids: honey, oil, salt water and fresh water, and with our findings we could then create a layered liquid cake showing the different densities of the liquids.
PE Term 2 Week 1 and 2 Gymnastics
Mat Skills Focus:
- Balances
- Jumps
- Rolls
- Handstands
- Cartwheels
Apparatus Focus:
- Pupils will explore different equipment setups
- They’ll be encouraged to create their own ways of moving from one side to the other
This approach supports creativity, problem-solving, and physical literacy.
Everybody loves this term in the gym, so I’m sure their will be plenty to talk about when they get home.
PE Reminder
Please ensure pupils:
- Come dressed appropriately on PE days
- Have appropriate footwear. Now that the weather is changing, footwear can be changed before PE.
- Have hair tied up
- Remove jewellery and watches before the session
