What you’ll learn

I can change the size of my actions whilst travelling.

Key learning points

  • Move: changing the size of our actions and shapes requires control.
  • Move: control helps us to travel from one location to another while using changes in level and direction.
  • Think: imagination helps us to create a range of actions to communicate our ideas.
  • Feel: creating a range of ideas for our actions requires courage.
  • Connect: sharing ideas with our partner and creating actions together demonstrates fairness.

Words to know

size
how big or small a shape or action is
travel
to move from one place to another
control
performing an action as we mean to or as we are asked

Common mistakes

Pupils think that creating actions that communicate wind involves running fast for strong wind and walking slow for a light breeze.

We can create actions using changes in size, levels and direction including travelling and creating shapes to communicate wind.

For parents, carers and teachers
  • Using visual prompts such as images or films of clouds drifting and changing shapes can prompt a wider range of responses from the pupils.
