The last unit of Grade 1 this academic year was aimed at developing physical literacy. Grade 1 developed their basic movements skills working both on form and function of different skills. We have explored a variety of basic movement skills during the 6 weeks unit as you can see in the video below.

Currently, in the PE stand alone unit of inquiry, we are learning how basic movement skills enable us to enjoy responsible a variety of activities. We have played the Stepping Stones game. The students had to cross over an imaginary river by stepping on imaginary stones (hula hoops). They did this individually, by pairs and we finally made it successfully with the entire class.
