USING MATERIALS, TECHNIQUES, SKILLS AND MEDIA
|
Investigat
-ing
and developing fitness
|
Show an ability to engage in physical activity which
raises the heart rate;
be able to say how the body feels after such an
activity.
|
Sustain energetic activity for a period of time;
know and describe some of the obvious effects of
exercise on the body.
|
Show some ability to sustain energetic activity
for longer periods of time;
know and describe in basic terms some of the effects
of exercise on the body.
|
Demonstrate stamina, strength and flexibility appropriate
to the level of physical development; know own limits in participation;
show knowledge and understanding of the effects
of exercise on the body.
|
Maintain and extend personal exercise habits;
show awareness of the relationship between exercise
and physical well-being;
monitor, over a period of time, the effects of exercise
on fitness.
|
|
Using the body
|
Perform a range of single actions, such as running,
stretching and balancing, with some control of body weight;
be able to share space when performing actions.
|
Begin to combine and link actions together;
develop control of the body and increasing skill
through better understanding of force, speed and space.
|
Link actions together with increased fluency;
demonstrate increased control of the body and ability
in refining movement skills within defined working spaces.
|
Demonstrate increased knowledge and understanding
of the basic principles of movement through an improved repertoire
of movement skills;
show awareness of direction, level and pathway.
|
Consolidate and extend quality and knowledge and
understanding of movement skills in a wider range of activities;
show control of direction, level and pathway.
|
|
Applying skills
|
Use single actions or a series of single actions
appropriate to simple given tasks;
recall and repeat with some accuracy single actions
or a series of single actions.
|
Repeat appropriately a range of movement skills
in response to simple given tasks, eg. moving along a piece
of apparatus, jumping and landing safely.
|
Use knowledge and understanding to apply skills
with control and accuracy in predictable situations, eg. a
dance or a game.
|
Use movement skills in a wider range of contexts
and be able to adapt these skills effectively in predicable situations,
eg. low hill walking.
|
Demonstrate independence, knowledge and understanding
and practical ability in different forms of physical activity;
show an ability to adapt quickly and effectively
to unforeseen or swiftly changing situations, eg. a simulated
water rescue.
|
|
EXPRESSING
FEELINGS, IDEAS, THOUGHTS AND SOLUTIONS
|
Creating
and designing
|
Express own ideas in movement;
select and organise appropriate responses to simple
given tasks;
show simple structuring in starting and finishing.
|
Express ideas and feelings through simple sequences
of movements;
develop very simply one idea in response to a given
task or as part of solving a simple problem.
|
Express ideas and feelings through more complex
sequences of movements;
demonstrate a range of responses to structured tasks;
understand and use some features of different forms
of physical activity in planning solutions, eg. inventing a
simple game.
|
Create a structured response in movement to ideas,
thoughts and feelings, eg. as part of a small group creating
a section of a dance;
identify problems and effect solutions to set tasks,
eg. suggest tactics in a team game.
|
Use repertoire of movement skills to create personal
and group responses and to devise more complex and extended solutions
to problems or tasks, including those identified by pupils themselves.
|
|
Co-operating, sharing, communicat
-ing
and competing
|
Co-operate with others in sharing space and equipment;
show their movement ideas to others and respond
to simple movement signals given by others.
|
Share ideas and work co-operatively, with a partner
and in small groups to fulfil tasks;
show movement ideas to others and respond to simple
signals given by others;
participate in simple competitive situations.
|
Co-operate and compete in small groups where a degree
of individual responsibility is required;
show work that has been produced with others;
respond to signals given by others in a variety
of simple contexts.
|
In co-operative and competitive situations, share
responsibility for tasks (in both leading and supporting roles);
show structured work devised with others;
continue to develop speed and some subtlety in giving
and responding to signals in a range of simple contexts.
|
In co-operative and competitive situations, assume
a range of roles effectively and take some responsibility for
aspects of own learning;
prepare and perform work for others, outwith the
class;
continue to develop speed and subtlety in giving
and reading signals in a wide range of more complex contexts.
|
|
EVALUATING
AND APPRECIATING
|
Observing, reflecting, describing and responding
|
Observe simple actions, describe some features of
these and offer some personal response at a simple level.
|
Using given criteria, observe and describe simple
activities, including own work, and give a personal response.
|
Observe, reflect upon and describe the performance
of self and peers, against specific given criteria;
offer evaluative comment and suggest ways of improving
skills.
|
Observe, reflect upon and describe the performance
of self and peers, making reference to criteria;
share opinions and accept constructive criticism
from peers.
|
Observe closely, identify and comment upon key elements
in performances;
monitor and adjust personal performance against
given criteria, recognising own strengths and development needs.
