Reception

Physical activity is vital in early child development. Gross and fine motor experiences develop through games and indoor and outdoor activities. Through these activities, the children develop their core strength, stability, balance, spatial awareness, co-ordination and agility. 

We experimented with ways of travelling and balancing, such as different ways of moving across and over a bench. This included balancing in different ways and landing safely.

We incorporated dance into PE with the theme of Chinese New Year and used streamers to travel copying and repeating movements . We explored actions for fireworks, dragon and tiger.We were learning to change the speed of my actions based on the music. Children were encouraged to think about choosing fast actions when the music is fast and slow actions when the music is slow.

We have a coach in PE and we are learning to move a ball in a range of ways by throwing, catching, batting and striking.
