Teachers’ Notes Being healthy is an important factor for our quality of life. Phys Ed For Years 1 - 2 is written to help students enjoy participating in physical activities at school. It is also designed to help students become more aware of how physical activities affect the body as they work their way through the book. Linked to the current Australian curriculum, this book focuses on three areas of the Health And Physical Education curriculum in particular:

Teaching children how to stretch is important, not only to prevent injury but also to develop students' awareness of the body. Remind students to stretch gently and to take particular care when stretching their heads and necks. As your students do these stretches, take this opportunity to name different body parts and muscle groups and discuss what their importance is to us. Appointing a different student each time to lead the class in warm up and warm down routines will build their confidence.

Balance 1

Activity

It would be tricky to do just about anything if you couldn’t balance. Balancing is something that we learn to do as we grow up. When babies are learning to walk for example, they take very wobbly steps, because they are still learning to balance.

Game 2: Divide the class into groups of 4. Students should face each other in a tight circle and touch their right hands together above their heads. Slowly they should press and step back until they support one another with their weight on their hands.

Teac he r

Game: This is a running game about avoiding collisions. Divide the children into groups of 6 and tell them that the aim of the game is to avoid running into one another. Each group should stand in one corner of the square in single file. One student at each corner, jogs to the diagonal corner, then turns left and jogs to the back of the next corner line. The next student, jogs diagonally as soon as the one ahead of him/her arrives. Watch out for traffic! The students can jog at first until they are confidently avoiding each other and then encourage them to speed up.

Area: Outdoor space. Equipment: Set of sashes or bibs, witches hats.

Area: Outdoor space. Equipment: One small rock per team, witches hats.

Game: Divide the students into pairs and tell them that the aim of the game is to snatch their partners' tails. Hand out one sash for each pair. Sashes are tucked into their waistbands so that they look like tails and must be hanging down. Set the boundary area for the game using witches hats. On "go", the tails must run from their partners who try to snatch their tails. Children swap roles after all the tails have been snatched.

Game: Divide the class into teams of 6. Mark out two lines 15 metres apart using witches hats. Teams are to line up in single file behind one of the lines with their palms open. 1 member of each team holds a rock and walks along the line of players. He/she drops the rock into the hands of another player who runs to the line opposite while everyone tries to tag him/her. If the player with the rock makes it safely, he/she is the next player to drop the rock into another player's hand. If he/ she is tagged, the tagger drops the next rock.

Suggested activities: • Review parts of the body and make a list with the class of what we can do with these parts and how they move. • Watch short video clips of different types of movement. Students do a Think/Pair/Share to explain what an athlete or performer needs to be thinking about to complete a specific movement demonstrated in the video clips (balance, team tactics, etc.). • Make movement cards showing different actions and ask students to pull out a card and create a dance with their card. • Design a recovery poster as a class showing ways that students can recover after an energetic activity. • Show a short dance clip in a different style each week and learn the sequence as a class. Try the style to different music and discuss what happens.

Page 28 There are different types of fitness, such as muscular strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance. Cardiovascular endurance refers to being able to keep running or playing a sport for 20 minutes or even longer and is a very important element of health. We can measure this fitness by taking our pulse. This lets us know how much our heart is working. Often this is referred to as measuring our heart rate. A resting pulse will be between 60 and 100 beats per minute. Students should begin to understand that when they exercise their pulses beat faster because the body is working harder to pump blood around the body. Often, the pulse in the neck is easier to find. The resting pulse should be taken first, preferably after students have been sitting for at least five minutes. Usually, this activity works best conducted as a whole class activity, getting everybody ready first and counting the pulse silently, while running the clock. While heart rates are measured in beats per minute (BPM), it is often more convenient to take a pulse for a shorter period of time, say thirty seconds or even fifteen seconds and then multiply this figure by two or four respectively to achieve the full measure. This is particularly significant for accuracy of exercising pulse rates. If someone is exercising and then stops to take their pulse for a full sixty seconds, by the end of the measuring time, their pulse will have slowed, affecting the accuracy of the true

Teac he r

Background notes: • Understanding movement helps us to know our bodies and how best we can manage them. • Different movements have different intensities and cause reactions in our bodies. • Breathing and heart rates are ways to measure fitness. • Movement is fun and gives us positive feelings. • It is tricky to try new movements and activities at first. • Movement can be performed with different equipment.

working measure. Breathing will change with exercise so that the lungs and working muscles can get more oxygen. If this does not happen, then it will not be possible to continue exercise. As exercise demands increase, we would expect to see increases in heart rate and correlating increases in breathing rates.

My Body Reacts 1

Activity

When we do different activities our bodies react in different ways. Being aware of this helps us to look after ourselves.

 Match the reactions to the activities by drawing lines. Some reactions might be linked to more than one activity.

Too Easy Or Too Difficult?

Activity

Some movements are easy to do because we perform them everyday, like walking. There are movements that only people who train every day to perfect them can do, like juggling five balls or somersaulting backwards off a springboard. As well as practise, our genes can determine whether we find particular movements easy or difficult. For example, some people might be naturally more flexible than others, some people might be built for sprinting, while other people's body types might be suited to throwing the discus or javelin.

Ask students to line up according to the number of letters in their first name / number of people who live in their house / number of pets that they have / size of their shoes / birthday / tallest to shortest. Ask students to think of a positive adjective to describe themselves that starts with their initials (example: M.J – marvelous and joyful). Students sort themselves into alphabetical order according to their initials and share their adjectives. Speed interviews – students form pairs by finding someone of similar height. Students form two circles with partners facing each other. The teacher stands in the centre and announces a speaking topic, “My greatest wish is… / I really love to… / I will never…”. Pairs have 30 seconds to talk to one another and then students forming the outside circle move one step to their right and onto the next person. Speed interviews are over when they arrive back at their original positions. Name tag swap: Students are given someone else’s tag and need to find them and introduce themselves. Students introduce the person who’s name tag they had, to the whole class. Learning names – form a circle. The first person says an adjective starting with the same letter as their name. The next person does the same after repeating the first person’s name. Continue and see if the last person can name the whole class, i.e. I am Super Sam. This is Super Sam and

Background notes: • We need to learn how to work with others to get the most out of team games and activities. • Team strategies need to be regularly practised to be effective. • Cooperation can be difficult and always needs negotiation. • Sometimes game rules need to be changed to be able to include everyone. • Model how to give and receive constructive criticism of a movement activity or game. • Rules help games to run smoothly and keep people safe. • Fair play makes games more enjoyable for everyone.

Forming Groups: • Write numbers or letters onto ping pong balls and throw them for students to catch. Groups are formed according to the ball that is caught (all the 2s together, all the 3s, all the 4s, all the 5s, etc.). Prepare balls in advance and keep them in a container to use them regularly. • Give students an animal name randomly. Students close their eyes and make the animal noise to find the other members of their group. • Give students a coloured sticker. Without talking, students must form groups according to their sticker colour. • Randomly create groups by telling students, ‘those who were born in the same month go together’; ‘those who are the same height go together’; ‘those who watched the same T.V. show last night go together’, etc.

Each child could skip for one minute. 2) The boys could set up a competition and count how many times they can hit the ball continuously without letting it swing by them. They could keep the score. 3) The girl could hit the ball up in the air and whoever catches it switches places with the batter. 4) The boys could kick it to each other in a triangle, or see who can kick the ball the most times against the wall and keep score.
