PE with 7 children

We enjoyed PE with only 7 children. It was slightly different as we had to design the activities for the rest to do, We had to select the equipment , plan the activity and the associated rules. Finally the rest had to try them out and evaluate them.

Ben and Jay planning how to steal the equipment from the other team and win.

James playing Jordan, Katie and Pippa's " space invader "game.Here craetivity, communication and team work skills were needed.

Sam and James planned a skills based cricket game designed to improve batting accuracy.

Everone was involved in Ben and Jay's "fun obstacle" game. Team work, communication and cooperation were all needed ,

At the end of the session it was decided thatt most games were successful. A good time was enjoyed by all.
