Words to know
- coordination
- the ability to move 2 or more body parts at the same time

Common mistakes
Pupils don't concentrate, so they don't realise when it is their turn. Other team members shout at them to take their turn.
Encourage players to pay attention to their team so they know when it's their turn. Other team members can kindly prompt them if they miss their turn.
For parents, carers and teachers
- The theme of this lesson can be tweaked to suit your current topic, e.g. move toys from one planet to another or going on holiday. Remember the Peak-End rule: pupils are likely to judge a lesson based on how they feel at the end. Help them to think positively with prompts at the end of a lesson.
