What you’ll learn

I can work within a team to dodge effectively and score points in a game situation.

Key learning points

  • Move: dodging into space and using the correct technique improves our chances of scoring in a game situation.
  • Think: working together to apply tactics is important when trying to score points in a game.
  • Feel: demonstrating self-belief requires us to work as a team to avoid being tagged.
  • Connect: when playing as a team, it is important to stick to the rules and play fairly.

Words to know

tactics
a carefully planned set of actions that are used by a team or an individual to achieve a certain goal
team
a group of people who work together with the objective of achieving the same goal
score
the record of the total points earned in a game

Common mistakes

Pupils may think that they can only be a good team member if they score lots of points.

Scoring a point means everyone in the team has done their job well, not just the individual who scored. Only some team members need to have the role of scoring points; doing your job well will help the team members whose job it is to score points.

For parents, carers and teachers
  • Encourage teams to regularly discuss, evaluate and adapt their tactics. The practice activities have a significant focus on working together as a team. Reward and acknowledge any pupils who are demonstrating teamwork skills such as listening, encouraging, swapping roles and suggesting ideas.
