I created this resource for my form a few years ago for a bit of fun and it turned into quite an event. I've added to it by creating a true or false quiz for a bit of fun and context to give the students some ideas. As well as being a bit of a lark, it actually gives students an opportunity to get creative, to do some research and to spread the word about the plight of one of our most entertaining but also threatened animals. All feedback is gratefully received, whether positive or developmental. Thanks.

This resource is ready for immediate use and is aimed at GCSE PE students, however it would also be useful in a variety of other subjects. It has the Tour de France as it's main focus, utilising imagery, video and examples to help students understand the importance of sponsorship within sport. The powerpoint prompts debate and asks questions of the class for students to answer both verbally and in their books. Access to the internet will be needed as there are youtube clips to link to. Also included is a worksheet for less able students to complete instead of writing notes and copying out. This allows for differentiation as they will get all the correct information down whilst also doing the work required of them. Any feedback, positive or developmental is greatly appreciated.

This lesson utilises the Toronto Wolfpack rugby league team as it's source material in it's unique position as the first transatlantic sports team. After first highlighting the fact that all of the teams in the Kingstone Press League 1 are Welsh or English, students are asked to guess the location of the league leaders which is of course, Toronto. Following there is a brief fact file about the Wolfpack and then a think, pair, share task looking at the positives and negatives of having a team based in Canada, play in Britain. Students are then challenged to tackle one of three tasks, looking at either logistics management, grass roots or marketing, all of which are directly related to the Wolfpack. This allows for differentiation as students can pick their challenge or have the teacher select one for them in order to push students. Finally we have question time. All students should attempt EITHER the normal OR the level-up before attempting the killer question. The normal question is aimed at lower ability students, again allowing for differentiation. The killer question is related to another sport entirely in order to encourage students to transfer their knowledge to another area. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, positive or developmental.

6 rounds of 39 questions all about the past season and the history of the EPL. Questions vary from multiple choice, match ups and straight forward questions. No matter how knowledgeable your students are, they'll be challenged and even if they have no interest in sport whatsoever, they'll still be able to participate fully and enjoy the quiz. This is ideal for the start of the new school year. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, positive or developmental.

I’ve designed this as an ongoing resource to be returned to every regularly for the duration of the World Cup tournament. It comes with a powerpoint that has all the participating teams on it. If you play the powerpoint then the images will quickly change. Press “S” and the slideshow will stop on a team. Press “S” again to re-start the slideshow. Using this method, each child can randomly select a team to follow. This team will also feature in their booklet as a research project. The booklet starts with a page about the hosts of the tournament, Russia. It’s a research activity and so access to computers or books is helpful. Next we look at the geography of Russia and the location of the stadiums. There are two sheets here which look identical but are not. One is aimed at a higher level than the other and this is distinguished by the World Cup icon in the top right. All future differentiated sheets for the higher ability have this icon. Then we have the history of the tournament and again a differentiated version for lower ability students. Following is a picture quiz where students have to name the winners of the previous tournaments. Next is a research project where students are asked to design a poster for their previously selected team. There is a differentiated version for lower ability students with a number of prompt questions to help with research. The next sheets each relate to the England football team. The tasks are to create a song/rap or chant, to design their football kit. Next is an art project looking at the work of Wassily Kandinsky, a famous Russian artist with a particularly bright and vivid style. Students are asked to reproduce his work and this can be extended to adapt a football picture into his style of work and a blank canvas for the truly creative. There then follows a focus on five famous players with an attached fact file and a drawing to colour in. Once this is completed there is a blank fact file for students to pick their favourite player and complete accordingly. Next comes an English language task where students are asked to conduct a post-match interview with a player of their choice. Finally there is a puzzle page with riddles and a word-search. The answers are on the final sheet. There are a number of ways in which you can run this project: You could compile the workbooks beforehand and hand them out so that they are differentiated to each class members ability. You could hand out each page individually and then compile them at the end. My ideal would be that everyone gets a different sheet so that everyone is doing a different task within the same time frame and then they are compiled at the end. Any feedback, positive or negative, is greatly appreciated.

Powerpoint presentation on sponsorship that identifies what gets sponsored in sport by concentrating on Mo Salah Before looking at a wider number of sportspeople.

Number of tasks to do throughout the lesson, both written and discussion based.

AQA specification on the Principles of training - SPORT. Lesson starts with a ‘Do Now,’ activity and then works through Specificity, Progression, Overload, reversibility and Tedium with mini-tasks along the way. Lesson finishes with safety concerns. Teachers should be familiar with teaching methods such as “Think, Pair, Share,” and success criteria.

This is a GCSE PE lesson covering the elements of Risk and Challenge ending with an exercise on risk assessment that can be used as a homework task, extension task or starter for the next lesson. The learning objective is: Understand why people take part in hazardous activities and how the challenges that exist are different for different people. The lesson comprises of a powerpoint that links to a youtube video of a freediving world record and the challenges and risks involved before linking to PE lessons. There are a number of collaborative learning exercises used within the lesson which can be used at your discretion. To enable differentiation, the lesson comes with a worksheet for the less able so that they can concentrate on quality of work instead of quantity. The lesson comes with a separate handout for all students with regards to the risk assessment mentioned earlier. All feedback, positive or developmental is greatly appreciated.

This is an updated lesson which was previously available for free and was downloaded over 1000 times in Great Britain and the US combined. It looks at the two areas highlighted using analysis of youtube clips to give examples. Questions are split into two groups to create effective differentiation with a supported worksheet for those of a low ability. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated whether positive or developmental. Any questions, please ask.

There are two resources here. The first is an activity book featuring a wide range of activities that encompass geography, history, literacy and numeracy. It's activities include art based tasks as well as creative writing and researching facts. One of the sheets looks like a duplicate but it isn't, it is a higher level sheet for the more able. You can hand out the sheets individually, compiling them at the end of the project or put them all together at the start to create a resource that students work through at their own pace. Included is a team generator on powerpoint which is operated by pressing play and then stopped and started with the 'S' key. This has been adapted from my previous resource on the FIFA World CUP which was downloaded 2703 times, had a 5 star rating and was selected by the TES team for their Secondary newsletter.
