In P.E. today we started our preparations for participating in the London 2020 Mini Marathon. P1,2 and 3 started by getting some of their running distance completed, P4 and 5 did some training for their run on Thursday and P6 and 7 helped with the organisation and preparations. All pupils will have the opportunity to complete 2.6 miles.

P.E. 23.6
Good morning boys and girls. I hope you are having a great last week of term. I have a P.E. version of snakes and ladders for you to try.
I see you are having a Disney theme this week so I have also attached the Disney Fitness activities we completed a few weeks ago in case you would like to try them again.
Thursday P.E. 18.6.20
Good Morning P1, 2 and 3. For P.E. today we have a balancing activity.
Before we begin, let’s warm up. Either choose a GoNoodle or JustDance track from YouTube or do a few minutes of switching between jogging on the spot and jumping jacks.
To begin the activity you can either use a dice or ask a member of you family to call out a number between 1 -6. For each number you roll/is called out, you make a balance shape with that number of body parts touching the floor. You shouldn’t balance on your head. If you roll the same number again you must create a different balance. Can you hold your shape still for 4 seconds? No wobbling! Can you have straight legs or arms and pointy toes? Repeat 4-6 times.
Next, watch the following link and create your sequence.

Finally, ask someone to look at the time on their phone or watch. Jog on the spot for what you think is exactly 1 minute, sit down when you think you have the time correct and the person timing will tell you how close you were.

Good Morning P1, 2 and 3.
For P.E. today, please click on this link for your warm up.
Then, ask someone in you family to write down their phone number. The phone number tells you which of these positions to do. Each one should be held for 10 seconds. Can you complete it again using another phone number? Can you make up your own pose? Have fun!

Good Morning P1, 2 and 3.
For P.E. today there are 2 different games for you to try. Click on the link and give them a go. If you don’t have any of the equipment suggested, soft toys and pairs of socks always work well instead.
