Warm-down activities Pupils should gently hop around the area
and slow down to a walking pace. They should find a space and
stretch to touch their ankles and reach to the sky to finish.
Everyone claps hands to show how much fun we had in the lesson. Gather the pupils around in a group.
Discuss what was learnt. Ask for volunteers who can demonstrate how
to send, receive, kick and travel with a ball. Emphasise that we
can practise these skills in further lessons. Talk about how we can improve our ball
skills at home. Ask the pupils about ways of staying fit and
healthy - who plays for a local football team? Emphasise that
regular exercise improves health and helps body parts to work well.
Give the class an opportunity to ask any questions and then let
them get changed. Extension activities In the next lesson(s) further develop the
games by introducing new elements. For example, in Take Over use
ability groups from the outset so that the most skilful ball
players are stretched and the lesser able players experience
enjoyment and success. In 1,2,3,4, 5 ask the pupils to "call out"
each others' name as they pass the ball in order to increase
confidence and be aware of what it is like to be playing a real
game of football. Encourage the class to collect photos of
their favourite footballer to make a display. Explain that the
internet has good links to find out about football in Wales and the
UK such as www.dragonsoccer.co.uk and www.thefa.com. Ideas for assessment - Assess whether pupils show control and are able to safely move
into a space without colliding
- Consider whether the pupils can work cooperatively with a
partner and can abide by simple rules
- Judge whether over time the pupils show good control in
dribbling the ball
