This week we used the Olympics as a theme for our lesson. First we designed Olympic medals and then we created Olympic and Country flags using the equipment.

We had great fun in PE today, taking part in an obstacle course to develop agility, stamina, coordination, balance and many more skills athletes need for all sports.
We have been doing Athletics in PE. We have been performing in events from the 3 categories running, jumping and throwing, focusing mainly on our sports day events.
We have been using rackets in PE. We have developed our skills using different equipment, including balloons, fluffy balls, hand paddles and various different rackets. We loved hitting balloons. Because they are slower, we had lots of time to get the racket in place.
We have been doing games in PE. We have played in small and large teams, practicing aiming, moving, tracking the ball, defending and attacking.
We have started the new term in PE with a dance block. We follow a scheme of work which involves a lot of movement both travelling and on the spot. We look at a lot of contrasting ways like lively and gentle and fast and slow. We also include counting, stopping and starting at the right time, changing direction, using the space well, creativity and imagination.
In our first lesson one of the activities was a follow the leader travel contrasting with a stopping waving and clapping sequence. Here we are in action.
This was our last week of gymnastics. The class have loved this block, especially the equipment, using it very creatively. We have seen lots and lots of learning taking place including balance and control, co-ordination, gross motor skills, core stability, strength, flexibility, stamina and confidence, as well as less obvious aspects like respect and tolerance, decision making and prioritising. A great block with so much effort put in. Well done P2B.
Here we are exploring this weeks equipment.
More excitement this week in the form of a trampette. This is a miniature trampoline that you use like a springboard. The pupil steps on and jumps off showing a 1 foot-2 feet-2 feet foot pattern. Other changes included a double bar, a high bench, a high ladder, obstacles on the beam, the springboard beside our long box and the wide box was another block higher.
Here we are in action.
Week 2 of the equipment saw a different set up for the pupils to explore. The main differences were we had the ropes out, included a change of direction, the wide box was slightly higher and the bench up to the long box was flat and lower.
Here are some pictures of us working
We are doing gymnastics in PE. We started with 2 weeks concentrating on mat skills including balances, jumps, rolls and bunny hops. This week the class were excited to see all the gymnastics equipment out.
On the equipment we will be making decisions on how to use each piece. This week we discussed how the skills we have already learnt are important on the equipment. For example
Here we are exploring the different equipment.
