Movement and Yoga in P.E!

F2 are really loving our Tuesday P.E afternoons! We have had so much fun getting to know and explore the big spaces of the hall and dance studio! The last few weeks in P.E we have focused on good listening, attention and following instructions… and also practicing lining up and following leaders!

This week we explored finding a space in the hall and moving in and out of spaces. We listened to some music and thought about whether or not it was fast or slow music, this inspired us to move our bodies! We moved fast and slow and demonstrated brilliant listening skills! We then looked at following a leader and working together as a team! We loved doing this to music!

In the dance studio we loved looking at ourselves in the mirror, pulling lots of faces! We sang some songs- head, shoulders, knees and toes- and played lots of circle games which was lots of fun!

To finish our session we cooled our bodies down by listening to some relaxing music and focused on being still and concentrating on our breathing! The children were amazing at this and loved doing some yoga movement and poses! We tried cat, cow, downward dog, chair pose, flamingo and tree pose!
