These lessons were created to be embedded into the KS3 curriculum and give students a taste of what studying PE at KS4 entails. The aim of these lessons is to give students a basic understanding of key topics studied in GCSE PE and engage students in a different way of learning in KS3 PE lessons which would normally be completely practically based. Students will complete one theory lesson during each block of practical lessons throughout the year (one theory lesson every 6-7 weeks). Throughout KS3 students should develop a basic understanding of all topics before starting GCSE PE in year 10. The lessons were tailored to the Edexcel GCSE PE (2016) specification and each year group focuses on a different topic within their lessons. *Would be suitable for other GCSE PE qualifications with similar content. *Also useful as a wet weather / cover lesson to keep students engaged in a classroom. Included: 7 lessons based around one ‘Big Question’ on Anatomy & Physiology and Health, Fitness and well-being. A graphic organiser / booklet which can be printed out and given to students to work in each lesson (in place of working in an exercise book). A PowerPoint with all 7 lessons – Each lesson including… o Title slide o Engage/starter tasks o Shared learning outcomes – using big & small question o Share new information – Students fill in the blanks in their booklets to gather new information shared in the lesson. o Mini plenaries to check understanding throughout the lesson. o Tasks – Application activities where students demonstrate their learning. o Final task is to complete the ‘small question’ for the lesson which involves an extended answer. Hints included to support students with what to include and a ‘WAGOLL’ of what a good one looks like! o Plenary task to wrap up the lesson. Links to GCSE curriculum: Each lesson includes GCSE content which has been simplified / scaffolded to be suitable for younger students. Extended answers to the small question at the end of the lesson use the same ‘PEB’ structure that is encouraged at GCSE level (Point, Explain, Benefit). *Some videos which were initially embedded into the PPT have been removed to reduce file size. Links for the videos have been posted into the slides.

18 slides with professional athletes and a component of fitness which the hot seated student needs to guess. (Obviously sit the hot seated student with their back to the board!!) Great starter / plenary / revision activity which the students really enjoyed. Some struggled with knowing who some of the athletes were, so some discretion may be required to accept answers naming the sport which the athlete is doing, along with the component of fitness given!

Includes 6 revision worksheets to use as a revision tool to recap all aspects of the GCSE PE curriculum (Edexcell 2016 Spec) Topics: Health, fitness & well-being Sport psychology Socio-cultural influences Anatomy & physiology Movement analysis Physical training

Created for Edexcel, but easily transferable content to other exam boards. Includes: Powerpoint with learning outcomes. Presents new information on muscles / types of muscles / muscles & movement / antagonistic pairs. Task - Matching task to identify all muscles (similar to bones activity on skeletal system lesson). Can be set out like an information relay - detailed muscles information sheet which can be put at the front / outside the room. Differentiated worksheet to complete.

I created a mock assessment to use after teaching the Health, fitness and well-being topic from the new GCSE spec. (Component 2, topic 1).Exam questions found from previous Edexcel assessments with the same / similar content. Assessment - Follows the structure to that of a real assessment, multiple choice questions, variety of short answer questions and a 9 mark question to finish. Mark scheme included. Powerpoint - Goes through each question and reveals answers. Good to use as a feedback lesson.

Includes: Revision questions on components of fitness (Differentiated). I did this by giving pairs one of the 3 cards (high ability / middle / low ability) and getting them to choose a question to answer. They needed to create a mark scheme of what they thought should go into a good answer for their question. The questions can then be answered by another pair who give their answer back, and have it marked by the students. Components of fitness loop card game - Print and cut the cards from the power point and hand out to the students. The first one stands up and reads out the question on their card, and the person who has the answer stands up and carries it on. (The cards are printed in the correct order so will need shuffling before handing out!!) The students really enjoyed the loop card game! Creating mark schemes can be difficult, but once they get the hang of it their exam answers will massively improve!

Includes: Power point and learning outcomes. Starter activity similar to scrabble, to create a word relating to the topic using the letter tiles on the screen (good bit of numeracy!) Graffiti wall - students to write what they know about each question on fitness testing - can refer back at the end, really effective to demonstrate progress. Main activity is an information relay. Provide each group with a large, blank handout to complete. One student at a time goes to look at the completed handout at the front / outside the classroom to bring information back to their group. Final slide gives a plenary activity for students to answer some questions on fitness testing.

I created a mock assessment to use after teaching the Socio-cultural influences in sport unit from the new Edexcel GCSE Spec. (Component 2, topic 3). Exam questions found from previous Edexcel assessments with the same / similar content. Assessment - Follows the structure to that of a real assessment, multiple choice questions, variety of short answer questions and a 9 mark question to finish. Mark scheme included. Asessment /35. Powerpoint - Goes through each question and reveals answers. Good to use as a feedback lesson.

I created these slides to use in practical PE lessons with my GCSE group & displayed them in the sports hall where we do table tennis lessons. I found the criteria for practical sports assessment very wordy and difficult for the students to comprehend what level they are working at, or how to progress to the next level. It has been really useful to assist with peer assessment in lessons, as students can easily understand what is expected of a performer working at a specific level. The terminology used was based on the criteria for Edexcel (2016). Other exam boards are very similar, although the grading may differ.

Based on Edexcel, but content is easily transferable to other exam boards. Includes: Powerpoint and learning outcomes. Starter activity to recap bones from previous lesson (skeletal system). Presents new information on joints and types of movement to give an understanding before main task. Main task to work around the room completing a worksheet on the 8 sports people, identifying joint, joint action and articulating bones. Differentiated worksheet Final task students apply their knowledge to exam questions & self/peer assess with given mark scheme. *I did this lesson in the sportshall, with the powerpoint projected onto the wall, with the pictures printed and stuck around the hall. This gave space for the students to work & you could see them performing the actions on the pictures to try and figure out the joint / bones which are involved in the movement! The students really enjoyed the lesson & were really engaged throughout!

3 lessons created to deliver remotely on Teams to my GCSE PE group whilst they were isolating at home. Powerpoint includes: Lesson on topic 1 - Health, fitness & well-being (focusing on lifestyle choices & diet). Lesson on topic 2 - Sport Psychology (focusing on feedback & mental preparation). Lesson on topic 3 - Socio-cultural influences (focusing on influences on participation & sporting behaviours). Each lesson contains: Starter activity to define key words from the topic. Topic recap of everything that is included in the topic. Content slides to recap a particular area of the topic (this was chosen based on their performance in the most recent mock assessment). 4 practice questions with PowerPoint timers & self-assessment slides. 9 mark answer to set on Teams after the live lesson has finished. My group enjoyed being able to still complete some revision at home in the format of a normal lesson. Students only need a pen & paper to complete the work so it is easily accesible & requires no handouts to be provided before students are isolating.

This is an excel spreadsheet which I have developed to monitor progress of the GCSE PE cohort & also speed up a lot of data analysis work! Spreadsheet includes: Overview tab which demonstrates progress over time & performance in all 6 assessments. Individual assessment tabs to show marks scored in each question. Staff need to update the tracker by inputting individual question marks into the correct assessment tab - the total score, % and WAG are automatically generated, as well as the overview tab at the front. Each question is RAG rated to show which questions need to be revised! PPT instructions file included. Includes 6 end of topic assessments & mark schemes. *Note that the tracker is set up to be used alongside these assessments - using different assessments will require the exam tabs to be amended.

Unit of work for KS3 athletics. Lessons included: - Throwing events (discus, shot, javelin) - Sprinting - Long jump - High jump - Relay All lessons include differentiated activities for more / less able, learning outcomes, teaching points and some have images which can be printed & laminated to use as flash cards. I have found these really useful to use with a range of high & low ability groups.

10 lesson scheme of work suitable for KS3. Each lesson includes a starter / intro activity, learning outcomes, skill development practices, games & plenaries. The lessons provided are ones I have used with my KS3 groups & work for a range of abilities. Activities have challenge / progression activities as well as scaffolded ideas to support low ability groups. Lessons: Basic grip & rules Basic shot: Push Basic shot: Drive Serve Topspin Backspin / Slice Doubles Advanced shot: Loop Advanced shot: Smash Tournament Also included; Resource cards to support teaching of different shots - serve, push, drive, topspin. Table tennis skills station cards which can be used at any point for independent learning / recap lessons. GCSE table tennis assessment criteria which helps make good links to the GCSE spec (Edexcel) Table tennis tournament template - Easier to print / add names.

GCSE PE - Component 1 Exam practice revision lesson (Edexcel 2016) Includes: Silent starter activity - mulitple choice exam questions Breakdown of three exam questions from past papers, with helpful hints to support more independent answers (PEB). Worksheets for more / less able students to complete exam questions on. Green pen activity to peer/self assess answers. Plenary activity to review keywords / definitions.

I created this worksheet to use as a homelearning task for my GCSE PE group after teaching 1.2 from component 1 (Cardiovascular system)

Table tennis skills stations to develop serving, push & drive shots, spin and angle on shots. Used for KS3 & KS4 lessons towards the end of a unit of work on table tennis, for students to set up their own activities to develop skills of their choosing. Or setting up a few tables for each of the 4 stations, and working in groups on a rotation to use all 4 stations. I have had really good responses from students who enjoyed the amount of practice they had in the lesson, as well as all of the practices being set out as a challenge / game against the others in their group! Each station has 3 levels of difficulty which makes it easy to give the exact set up to students of a wide range of abilities!

Created for Edexcel GSCE (New spec) Component 2 - Topic 3 - Socio-cultural influences Includes 25 cards with question and answer. Question on the right of the card with the matching answer on the left hand side of another card. A great resource for engaging the whole group in revision! Additional slides can be added to generate more cards / questions. I have also created loop cards for topic 1 and 2 from component 2.

Created to use for GCSE revision to review muscles & bones. Print & laminate the word document to create matching cards. Great starter / group activity. Colour coded cards - different colours for muscles / bones. Uses main muscles & bones needed for most GCSE PE exam boards.
