Physical Education - Monday
12 Skill Challenge-Catching and Throwing
Equipment required:
2 x tennis balls
Beanbag (a small soft toy or pair of folded adult socks will do)
Wall space
Teaching Points:
• Look at the ball in the air and watch it land into your hands
• Put your little fingers together and make a “birds’ nest or bowl” for a 2 handed catch
• Stand with you your feet shoulder width apart
• To catch have your elbows in front of your body
• Try to move your hands with the ball so that your hands are relaxed and soft when you catch the ball.
Watch the following video LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wk59o3zJ3w0 and go through the skills with Cam. Remember if you can do a trick 5 times in a row move onto the next challenge. If you find a skill too hard keep practicing. Throw the ball up to head height or just above.
The wall challenge is to see how many left to right then right to left handed catches you can do in 30 seconds. Have an extra ball handy and if you drop the ball after say 4 catches, the next successful catch is 5.
Do the skills again using 1 hand or your non-dominant hand to catch, eg if you write with your right hand, use your left.
Additional Activities.
1) Make up your own 12 skill challenge to test mum, dad or a brother or sister.
2) Go back to the soccer skills from last week and see what areas you can improve on :
Art - Tuesday
Your task this week is a catch up week on the last 3 tasks set for “Still life”. If you ran out of time to complete any of the tasks/drawings, use this week to finalise your masterpieces!
Extension …if you have finished all the drawings …
I would like you to review your artwork and see if there are any areas that could do with more attention and be pushed further...whether that is more shading, define the edges of your objects.
Also I'd like you to write a sentence about your artwork…
How did you find this process? For example, (was it hard, if so, what was challenging for you?)
Tell me about your artwork… what made you pick these objects to draw? Did it make you feel something?
