What you’ll learn

I can contribute to team fitness challenges by performing exercises to the best of my ability.

Key learning points

  • Move: running fast requires you to slightly lean forwards, keep your head up and pump the arms and legs simultaneously.
  • Think: fitness is having the speed, strength and stamina to meet the needs of the activity.
  • Feel: completing a task with positive outcomes can lead to a sense of accomplishment.
  • Connect: collaboration involves working as a team to meet shared goals or outcomes.

Words to know

fitness
your ability to meet the needs of the activity using speed, strength and stamina
success
the accomplishment of an aim or purpose
endurance
the ability to keep going for a long period of sustained exercise (also known as stamina)

Common mistakes

Believing that hard work involves rushing to complete the maximum number of repetitions but with poor form.

Doing less movements with the correct technique will have a more positive impact on fitness than blasting out lots with poor form/range of movement.

For parents, carers and teachers
  • Prepare Learning Cycle 2 in advance by printing Additional materials pages 2 and 3, cutting the pictures out and sticking them under your cones so it is quick to place them out.
