During the 2n term, students from 2nd grade, have been practising different ways to jump. We jumped with our feet together, inside a bag, using a trampoline or from a table, among others. At the end, we became professional jumpers.
We have made a video to show you some activities we did.
Along this 2nd term, boys and girls from 4th grade have been working badminton. On the one hand with this sport, we could improve our reflexes and coordination. On the other hand, we could work different physical education content like space and time or objected management, among others.
Along the second term the 1st graders continued improving the balance control through different activities (games, circuits…). After that, we worked on the content: jumps, turns and movements. We performed many activities and exercises in order to improve our abilities. We jumped, turned and moved in endless and original ways. We enjoyed it!
Com molt bé sabeu tots, és molt important mantenir el nostre cos actiu durant aquests dies. La pràctica regular d’exercici millora el nostre benestar físic, mental i social. És per això, que des de l’àrea d’educació física us volem proposar uns reptes que us mantindran actius durant el confinament. Són reptes senzills, de curta durada i que no necessiten gaire material.
During this 2nd term, students from 5th grade have been working on Basketball. We started practicing how to dribble a basketball. Then, in groups, they prepared a basketball challenge to train different skills and finally, we did a match to put into practice all we had learnt.
Along this 2nd term, students from 2nd grade to 5th grade, have been working on their body expression. We want to show you the final result of each activity they did.
– Human mandalas and basket beat with 5th grade
– Rythm with P.E. equipment and draw with our body with 4th grade
– Dance with 3rd grade
– Puppets, mime and shadows with 2nd grade
Paris and Bats worked really hard during the first term. We started learning and revising new English vocabulary about movement: walk, run, crawl, jump, hop, roll, slide, etc. Then we learned that with jump rope we can improve motor coordination, speed, agility, reflexes, resistance, strength, etc… During this unit, we invented 6 different levels of difficulty, and we had to try to achieve all of them:
Gymnastics is an exciting activity and sport for its unique contribution to general fitness, coordination, agility, strength, balance and speed. It’s the reason why 4th graders started the first term becoming professional gymnasts. The final aim of this unit was to prepare a gymnastic performance working with cooperative groups. In the video below you can see the final result.
We started this term practicing Athletics. We focused on 6 athletics events: long jump, high jump, 100 meters hurdling, shot put, discus throw and 100 meters. During some classes, we trained hard and at the end of the unit, we tried to improve our own results. We also compared our results with the world records, they are amazing!
2nd graders started the first term playing cooperative games. Then we learned that balance is the ability to stay upright or stay in control of body movement. There are two types of balance: static and dynamic. Now we know we need a strong balance to move efficiently, so balance helps us to run harder, bike longer or swim stronger, among others. At the end of the term, we played some games to revise where are the left and the right side of our body.
In the photos below you can see some activities we did. We hope you enjoy.
