Following the GetSet4PE scheme of learning, our Physical Education (PE) lessons for term 5 will focus on athletics and cricket. Our PE lessons for term 6 will focus on athletics and rounders. Our PE lessons will be on Tuesdays and Friday; children can wear their PE into school on both of these days.
Athletics
Throughout our athletics lessons, we will complete challenges for distance and time that involve using different styles and combinations of running, jumping and throwing. As in all athletic activities, pupils think about how to achieve their greatest possible speed, distance or accuracy and learn how to persevere to achieve their personal best. We will learn how to improve by identifying areas of strength as well as areas to develop. Over the course of this unit, we will take part in the following athletic activities: long distance running, sprinting, triple jump, discus and shot put.
Cricket
During our cricket lessons, we will develop the range and quality of striking and fielding skills and their understanding of cricket. We will learn how to play the different roles of bowler, wicket keeper, fielder and batter. In all games activities, pupils have to think about how they use skills, strategies and tactics to outwit the opposition. In cricket, pupils will achieve this by striking a ball and trying to avoid fielders, so that they can run between wickets to score runs. Churchill Class will be given opportunities to work in collaboration with others, play fairly demonstrating an understanding of the rules, as well as being respectful of the people they play with and against.
Rounders
Throughout our rounders unit, we will develop the quality and consistency of their fielding skills and understanding of when to use them such as throwing underarm and overarm, catching and retrieving a ball. We will learn how to play the different roles of bowler, backstop, fielder and batter and to apply tactics in these positions. In all games activities, pupils have to think about how they use skills, strategies and tactics to outwit the opposition. Pupils work with a partner and group to organise and self-manage their own games. Pupils play with honesty and fair play when playing competitively.
