In todays PE lesson, we concentrated on developing our tracking and catching skills. We needed to keep our eyes focused on the ball, apply a ready position and move our feet to the ball. First, we warmed up by playing ‘head, shoulder, need and toes” while avoiding the cones and catching the ball. Children then placed their beanbag on top of a cone. They jogged around, avoiding the cones. When I called ‘head’ pupils move to any cone and practise throwing the beanbag up, touching their head and catching the beanbag. We then played “baller” and “switch” for our skills development.

This morning in our Scottys session, we had to use our listening skills and our communications skills to navigate our way around the obstacle course. We had to make sure we were giving clear instructions so that the listener knew exactly what to do. However, we also had to make sure we were listening carefully so we were doing to correct thing. Teamwork was essential in todays Scottys session in order to be successful.
