Common mistakes
Pupils shout loudly thinking this will improve communication. Pupils high 5 with too much force.
Encourage the use of good sentences spoken at a normal talking volume. Be explicit about using gentle high 5s and ask pupils to imagine how a butterfly would high 5 their friend.
For parents, carers and teachers
- If the teams do not seem equal after the first game, make suitable adjustments. Remember the Peak End rule: pupils are likely to judge a lesson on how they feel at the end. So, help pupils to think positively about their experiences with positive reminders at the end of the lesson.
