‘MOVE WITH’
UNIT AND LESSON NUMBER: INTERMEDIATE LESSON 8 Movements covered in this session P I V O T / T U R N / T W I S T + S E N D / R E C E I V E ( C O N S O L I DAT I O N O F L E S S O N 7 ) EQUIPMENT AND RESOURCES IDEAL l 30 cones l footballs l large balls l ladders x 4 MINIMUM OR ALTERNATIVE l Hall or playground markings l small amount of cones l different sized balls or other items to throw/catch
T E A C H I N G P O I N T S F O R T H I S L E S S O N : How to teach these movements P I V O T / T U R N / T W I S T : AS PER PREVIOUS LESSONS S E N D / R E C E I V E : AS PER PREVIOUS LESSONS W A R M U P A C T I V I T Y: ‘BUNDLES’ GAME: GENERAL AGILITY l Children jog around in space

l On command they have to get in a ‘bundle’ of a given number, points awarded to the quickest TEACHING/PLANNING NOTE: This is a consolidation lesson to allow the children to practice the complex pivot movement from the last lesson, INTER 7. As such the instructions are the same (apart from the final progression which uses a large ball instead of a beanbag) as follows:
DIAGRAM 2
l Set out 4 ladders with cones alternately either side as per DIAGRAM 1
Feeder
l Demonstrate how pupils need to move in a pivoting motion as per DIAGRAM 2, reaching down to touch cones
Feeder
l Increase pace as pupils’ skills improve PROGRESSION: l Lead on to providing a feeder each side of the ladder as per DIAGRAM 3 throw and catch a beanbag back alternately all the way down the line. Children swap with a feeder when they read the end. (TEACHING POINT: ensure children know who has to swap so that all children get an equal turn). END GAME: l Which team can get all the players to the other end in the fastest time, without dropping the ball? EXTENSION SUGGESTIONS: WARM UP: Children could use different movements to move around the hall e.g. bunny hop/hop/leap/star jump. MAIN GAME: Provide different methods of feeding the ball e.g. throwing to head, bouncing to foot – also can children balance a beanbag on their head while they move down the ladder?
