Hi, there.

Welcome to your next remote learning lesson.

This lesson is part of the introduction to target games lessons.

And today's lesson is called Accuracy, can you kick and roll a ball accurately to score points?

My name's Ms. Hacking and I'm really excited to be your teacher today.

So for this lesson, you are going to need some equipment.

You're going to need an object to kick or roll.

Now this might be a soft ball or if you don't have a soft ball, a rolled up pair of socks would work just as well.

You're going to need eight targets.

These could be soft toys, shoes, books, or cushions.

And you're also going to need a timer, which could be a watch, a stopwatch, or something, some kind of smart device that could time you while you're doing your activity.

You might want to pause the video now so that you can go and get all the equipment needed for today's lesson.

So by the end of today's lesson, I'm hoping that we can all kick and roll accurately towards a range of different targets.

And our keywords today.

Let's do my turn, your turn.

So the first keyword, my turn.

Opponent.

Your turn.

So an opponent is a personal team that you compete against in a game, sport, or physical activity.

Our second keyword.

My turn, points, your turn.

So points are the units of scoring earned for achieving a goal, completing a task, or performing well in a game or activity.

And our final keyword today is accuracy.

My turn, accuracy, your turn.

So accuracy is how close you get to the target when you throw, kick or aim.

So before we start today's lesson, it's important that we complete our warmup.

For our warmup, you're going to show what you know about rolling and kicking accurately.

So I'd like you to move around the room carefully throwing a ball or rolled up pair of socks to yourself.

So just in your hands, if you drop it, roll the ball into another space in a room, move to it and then start throwing and catching again.

Challenge yourself by beating your previous score.

And can you get the ball to roll and stop before a wall or a chair?

Try to get to the ball before it stops.

Being very careful to keep away from walls or chairs or tables or anything else in the house that might break.

There is a video showing now of how you can perform this warmup.

So watch it, then pause and have a go at warming yourself up.

So today's lesson is split into two parts.

In the first part of today's lesson, you're going to roll the ball to hit many targets.

And in the second part of today's lesson, you're going to kick the ball to the correct target.

Are you ready?

Let's get started.

So today Laura is working by herself and Izzy is working with her brother Jacob.

They're going to try rolling and kicking accurately and will use rolled up socks as a ball.

In today's lesson, there is going to be some competition and we will be trying to score points.

Laura said that, "Rolling a ball accurately to strike a target and score points requires control.

" And Izzy said that, "Self-belief enables us to focus and try our best even if our opponent is winning.

" So those are exactly two things we need today.

We need control in our rolls and our kicks, but we also need self-belief and determination to keep going even if we are not playing as well as we think we should be or if the opponent is winning.

So to accurately roll the ball, you might want to practice this while I'm going through the teaching points.

Get low by bending your knees.

Use a gentle controlled push so with not too much power.

Keep your eyes on the target.

So make sure your eyes are focused where you want the ball to aim to.

Point your hands and body towards the target to help the ball rolls straight, so wherever you are rolling the ball to, that's where your hand should finish up so that you make sure you're really accurate.

Okay, let's have a go to quick check.

Where should your hand point as you release the ball?

Would it be A, behind you.

Would it be B, up to the ceiling.

Would it be C, at the target.

Or would it be D, towards the floor.

What do you think?

Where would your hand point as you release the ball?

Well done if you said C, your hand should be facing towards the target as you release the ball so that your ball will then roll towards the target.

Well done if you got that right.

Izzy and Jacob are playing a game of skittles.

They've made a triangle with six targets.

They both have two turns to knock down as many targets as they can and after their turn they put the targets back where they started.

So this is a game of skittles.

You may have played similar games maybe at a balling alley before when if you've been temping balling.

They both have 10 turns to knock over the skittles.

They write down how many they knock over in each turn and here are their scores.

So you can see that Izzy scored a total of 28 and Jacob scored a total of 24.

So there, Izzy won because she scored.

She knocked over more skittles over the 10 goals.

Laura is also playing skittles but she's playing against herself as her own opponent 'cause Laura is playing by herself today.

She has 10 turns to try and knock as many skittles over as she can, and counts her total like Izzy and Jacob did.

After each turn, Laura stand to skittles back up and rolls again.

Laura says, "To be able to knock the targets over, you might need to use a bit more power than normal.

" And to add more power to your roll, you might want to swing your arm back a little further, step forward with a bigger step, or move your arm faster when you roll.

However, Izzy said, "Remember, if we are inside, we must be careful not to knock anything by rolling too fast or too hard.

" So we need to be really accurate with the amount of power we use.

Yes, we want to use enough power to knock over our target, but we don't want to be silly with the amount of power we use and knock over something in the house that could get damaged.

Okay, let's have a go to quick check then, shall we?

True or false?

You should take a bigger backswing to add more power to your roll.

Is that true or is that false?

Well done if you said that's true, but can you tell me why?

So it's true because a bigger backswing will help you roll the ball with more power and therefore it will help you to knock over more of the targets.

So well done if you put something along those lines that a bigger backswing generates more power.

Okay, now it's your turn to have a go at the task.

So if you're working with someone else today, you're going to play skittles with a partner.

So you're going to make a triangle with six targets, one at the front and then two in the middle and three at the back, just like the image on the screen.

Your targets can be toys or books or cushions.

Take two turns each to knock over as many targets as possible.

So you have two turns, then your partner would have two turns, then you would have two turns, then your partner would have two turns.

And after each of your turns, each of your two turns, pick up the skittles so that they are facing back up again.

After your two turns, pick up the targets and put 'em back where you started just like we've said and write down how many targets you knocked over each turn.

Have 10 turns each, then add up your total score.

So just like Jacob and Izzy did earlier in the lesson, you are going to have a go at 10 turns each.

If you're playing by yourself today, you're going to do skittles on your own.

So again, you're going to make a triangle with six targets, just like the image, one at the front, then two in the middle and three at the back.

The targets can be toys or books.

Roll the ball and count how many rolls it takes to knock over all the targets.

When they're all knocked over, stand the targets up and start again and try to knock them all over using fewer rolls than before.

So maybe it takes you eight rolls to knock over all the targets in your first go.

Maybe the second time you can do it in less than eight.

There is a video showing now to show you how to complete this task if you're a bit unsure, but then pause the video and have a go at playing skittles either with someone else where you are or on your own.

Okay, let's reflect on our first task then.

Move, rolling a ball accurately to strike a target and score points requires control.

And Laura said that, "I used control to accurately knock over the targets.

" And did you, were you controlled with the amount of power that you used and your accurate rolling.

Think, knowing which target to aim for requires concentration.

And Izzy said that, "I concentrated by pointing my arm towards the targets that hadn't fallen over on my first turn so I could beat my opponent.

" And did you?

Did you try and aim for specific targets?

Feel, trying hard to achieve our best throughout the game requires self-belief.

And Laura said that, "I use self-belief to keep going even when I didn't do as well in my second turn.

" So yeah, even if you didn't do as well or your opponent started winning, it's important to show self-belief and keep going.

Connect, always playing by the rules requires fairness.

And Izzy said that, "I followed the rules of the game and only counted my points when the targets fell over.

" So she played honestly and with fairness and I hope you did too.

Okay, let's move on to the second part of today's lesson where we're going to kick the ball to the correct target.

So another way to move the ball accurately along the floor is by kicking it accurately.

And Laura said that, "Kicking using the correct technique requires accuracy and control.

" So to accurately kick the ball or a rolled up pair of socks, stand with your non-kicking foot next to the ball.

Look at where you want the ball to go.

Swing your kicking foot to hit the back of the ball in the middle.

Keep your eyes on the ball as you kick, as it might not go straight if you look up before you finish.

Follow through with your leg to help the ball go straight.

So Izzy and Jacob have four different colored targets each.

Izzy will tell Jacob which target color he has to kick the ball to.

He scores a point if he hits that target.

Jacob will then tell Izzy which target color she has to kick the ball to and hit to get a point.

They count how many points they achieve in five minutes.

So for example, if Jacob shouts blue, Izzy has to kick the ball to the blue target.

And then if Izzy shouts green, Jacob would have to kick the ball towards a green target so they have to be really accurate in which target they hit.

Now Laura is working by herself today.

So she writes down each color on its own piece of paper and unfolds all four pieces of paper over so she can't see the writing.

She takes one piece of folded paper and opens it to see which target color she's to aim for.

She then folds a paper again and puts it with the other three.

She gets a point if she hits that target color.

Laura does this for five minutes to see how many points she can achieve.

So she randomly picks a piece of paper and whatever color it says, so for example if it says pink, she would aim at the pink target.

And then she puts the paper back, shuffles the papers up again and picks another piece of paper.

Okay, let's have a go to quick check.

Where should your feet point when kicking a ball?

Would it be A, at any target.

Would it be B, at the target you are aiming at.

Or would it be C, sideways.

What do you think?

Well done if you said B, your feet should point at the target you are aiming at when kicking the ball.

Okay, another quick check then.

True or false?

You have to play against someone else to make a game competitive.

Is that true or false?

It's false.

Can you tell me why?

So you can play against yourself to try and beat your last score and that would still make a game competitive.

So you don't always need another person to be your opponent, you can actually be your own opponent.

So well done if you put something along those lines.

So Laura says, "It's important to always play fairly even if you're playing by yourself.

" And she said, "Can you think of how you can play fairly?

" Now Izzy said, "Yeah, by following the rules and being honest when counting our scores.

" So that's important when we're playing any game that we always show honesty as particularly when we are counting our scores.

Okay, now it's say your turn to have a go at Task B of today's lesson.

So firstly, if you're working with a partner, this is the activity you're going to do.

You need to have four colored targets or different targets.

For example, a book, a tin, a toy and a cushion.

You take it in turns to kick the ball towards a target that your partner shouts out.

If you hit the target that your partner calls you score one point.

See how many points you can score in five minutes.

To make it more challenging, if you hit a target, your partner can move that target before the next turn.

So they might move it to a harder space so it's harder for you to hit it.

And if you're working by yourself today, you can have four different colors or types of target.

For example, a book tin toy or a cushion.

You write down the names of each target on different pieces of paper, fold the paper over and put them in a bowl.

Each turn, take one piece of paper to open and see which target you should aim for.

If you hit that target, you score one point.

See how many points you can get in five minutes.

And again to make it more challenging, if you hit your target, you can move it before your next turn.

Repeat this whole activity and see if you can beat your first score by scoring more points.

So there is a video showing next of how to complete this activity if you're a little bit unsure, but if you know what to do, pause the video now and have a go at kicking the ball accurately to the correct target.

Okay, let's reflect on our second task then.

Move, kicking a ball accurately to strike a target and score points requires control.

And Laura said that, "I use control to accurately kick the ball to the correct target.

" And I bet you did too, making sure that your kick was really accurate and controlled so that you hit that correct target.

Think, knowing which target to aim for requires concentration.

And Izzy said that, "I concentrated by accurately aiming a ball towards a target my partner had called.

" And I bet you did too.

You concentrated hard to make sure that you hit that correct target with your accurate kicking.

Feel, trying hard to achieve our best throughout the game requires self-belief.

And Laura said that, "I use self belief to keep going even when I didn't do as well in my second turn.

" And did you?

Did you show self-belief that even when things didn't go as you wanted them to, maybe you missed a target, you kept going and you kept trying to hit that target.

And finally, connect.

Always playing by the rules requires fairness.

And Izzy said that, "I follow the rules of the game by only counting points when I hit the correct target.

" And I hope you did too, that you didn't cheat and you kept to the rules of the game by only scoring that point when you hit the correct target.

So well done if you did that.

Okay, so before we finish today's lesson, it's important that we complete our cool down.

So for our cool down, I'd like to place two targets about one big step away from each other to make a gate.

Move around the room with a ball or rolled up socks.

Every 20 seconds, stop and roll or kick the ball accurately between the targets.

Whilst you're moving slowly within the space, think about how you were successful when using an accurate roll or kick today, which actions were more controlled?

And what could you do between now and the next lesson to practice your skills further.

Okay, that gives us just enough time left to summarize today's key learning points of the lesson.

Move, kicking and rolling a ball accurately to strike a target and score points requires control.

Think, knowing which target to aim for requires concentration.

Feel, trying hard to achieve our best throughout the game requires self-belief, particularly if we aren't winning or if we've missed a target.

Connect, always playing by the rules requires fairness and this is whether you're playing with someone else or whether you're playing by yourself, it's always important that you play by the rules.

I really enjoyed being your teacher today and I hope you've enjoyed this target games lesson.

I look forward to seeing you again soon.
