Today in our PE lesson we have been doing a variety of activities to develop our throwing skills.

The children focused on throwing for accuracy and concentrated on throwing their beanbag or ball at a target. Our success criteria for a great overarm throw are:

  • stand sideways
  • step forward with opposite foot to throwing arm 
  • hold opposite arm up for balance and aim
  • follow through with arm after releasing the object

The children moved around three different stations with different games on each practising these skills and made great progress. Well done!
