Instructions in PE

PE equipment

Give sequences of one then two instructions, for example: 'Run to the post then turn around', 'Jump then run to the window', 'Throw the yellow ball', 'Jump three times then turn around'

Variations:

Have a fixed set of instructions, for example turn around, throw the ball, run to the post, jump in the hoop. Let the children take it in turns to be the teacher, giving the other children the instructions. It may be useful to have picture prompts for the instructions which the children can use.

If the child gets it wrong you can:

- repeat the instruction doing the actions together;

- hold up a finger for each instruction you do to remind the child that there was more than one instruction;

- use less steps in the instruction

General class room instructions

No specific equipment

Be careful about how much you are expecting the child to understand - use no more than two steps in the instruction.

Some situations require very little understanding of language, for example asking 'get your coat' when it's home time requires no language understanding as this what a child would normally expect to do at this time.

Barrier games

Paper, coloured pens, a barrier so that children can't see what each other is doing

Black sheet press have a range of ready made sheets for doing these activities.

At first, you can start by giving the instructions.
