Y4 PE: Outdoor Adventure Activities: Problem Solving

Y4E are enjoying our current Outdoor Adventure Activities in PE and recognising the benefits of working effectively as a team in order to solve problems.  The children have been sharing their opinions on the best way to solve the posed tasks and listening to each other to ensure that everyone feels values and included.

Here in the Bench Challenge, the children had to co-operate with each other to get themselves into height order whilst standing on a bench without touching the floor.

As you can see, the moves were tricky but the children demonstrated great TEAMWORK to accomplish the task!

In the Pen Challenge, the children had to work together as a team to place the marker pen down so that it stood up as far as possible from behind a line. Firstly the task was completed independently…

The children then had to try and better their independent measured reach by working as a Team!

We found that by reaching with support using a lever technique or wrist grip for support that their measured reach was improved.

Great TEAMWORK Y4E!
