Physical Education

Creating Target Games

Over the last 3 weeks in physical education lessons, years foundation, 1 and 2 have been creating their very own target games. 

Students have refined their fundamental movement skills and applied movement concepts and strategies in different physical activities and to solve movement challenges.

I have enjoyed observing them as they have worked sometimes in teams and at other times independently to make-up their own games. 

It is impressive that students had the ability to apply inquisitiveness, reasonableness, intellectual flexibility, persistence, open- and fair-mindedness, a readiness to try new ways of doing things and to consider alternatives.

Critical thinking is at the core of most intellectual activity that involves students learning to recognise or develop an argument, use evidence in support of that argument, draw reasoned conclusions, and use information to solve problems.
