What you’ll learn
I can perform a routine and provide constructive feedback to others.
Key learning points
- Move: a quality routine requires control, consistent flow, accurate timing and excellent movements from start to finish.
- Think: deciding which movements to perform as a group requires analysing various options.
- Think: if a mistake is made, continue to keep the routine flowing and show poise to minimise further deductions.
- Feel: demonstrating confidence when performing helps execute skills making it more visually pleasing for the audience.
- Connect: motivating and setting targets for classmates can help as they seek to complete their best performance.
Words to know
- routine
- a series of specific movement and balances that you practice and perform in a particular order
- perform
- to show a skill or routine in front of others
- flow
- moving from one movement to another without stopping
Common mistakes
When working in bigger groups, there may be issues with group dynamics as pupils have to negotiate which movements they will use. Not all pupils in the group may be able to perform the movements.
Pupils could delegate a leader or be encouraged to listen to each other when working in bigger groups. Pupils may have to consider adapting their routines to help other members of their group.
For parents, carers and teachers
- Pupils may need support when peer assessing. You could demonstrate the process displaying the worksheet with some examples of the sort of feedback you would expect.
