This week we started to introduce our new sports in invasion games. The students are now using different skill sets to try and demonstrate their ability in the sports we are working in.
Grade 4:
- We started our new sport of netball this week The students are working on spotting open teammates and moving to open space while also completing accurate passes and opening up defenders. They are also working on their shooting skills to be able to sink a basket with accuracy and consistency.
Grade 5:
- The grade 5's started their new sport of basketball this week. They are working on dribbling, passing and shooting accurately while moving and while stationary. They are also working on being able to find open space while working in a team system with a game plan. They are quickly learning some of the basic rules to basketball which will help them to play games next week.
Grade 6:
- The grade 6's are starting their new sport of lacrosse. We are working on our ability to send and receive a ball using an object (lacrosse stick). The students are working on their ability to scoop, cradle and pass a lacrosse ball while also being able to evade defenders that may be trying to steal the ball from them. Lacrosse is a new sport to a lot of the students and their skill development is fun to watch.
Pictures will be posted next week with some examples of the skills we are working on and the progress that the students have made over this short period of time.
