1 Red had great fun using the large apparatus in PE this week. They used their gross motor skills to help this them travel across, over and under various large apparatus. Whilst finding some elements challenging everyone gave each part a good go and had a wonderful time in the process.
As part of our PE this half term we have been looking at different ways our bodies move during dance. We have imagined ourselves as explorers and we have travelled through different terrains. This week we were imagining we were pirates seeking treasure however, when we found the treasure it was too big to move. Using dance we had to create a movement that would help us transport our treasure. We had so much fun as you can see!
This half term, we are learning how to play football. We have started off with practising our dribbling skills, whilst attacking and defending the ball.
1 Red have been doing Gymnasts in PE this week. They have been learning various ways to curl their bodies to enable them to roll. The had to remember to have good posture when starting and finishing their movements. We definitely have some budding Gymnasts amongst us.
This week in Reception we have been using our knowledge of circles and triangles to sort and create shape pictures. We used lots of positional language as we made our way round the obstacle course. We have been working on our Sounds Write skills and made lots of fabulous creations!
This half-term, we are learning how to play handball. We practised how to pass and intercept the ball in teams.
We took part in our first gymnastics PE session with the coach. We looked at the correct form and posture needed to create a safe and controlled forward, pencil, tuck and backwards roll. We had a great time and can’t wait for next week to learn new skills.
Every Friday in Year One we have a Motor Skills session to help support our fine and gross motor skills. The children are becoming increasingly more confident whilst using the equipment to help strengthen their to muscles to support their physical development.
In PE, we practised our underarm and overarm throws with our PE coach.
This week in PE, we practised our triple jump, which consisted of hopping, stepping and jumping with two feet. Then, we practised relay races in teams.
