Description

The unit of work will introduce pupils to the basic principles of attacking and defending in net based games. Pupils will explore where, when and why we throw the ball on a mini court, in order to win a game. Pupils will show resilience as they start to use rackets in order to control the ball.

This unit introduces pupils to net based games by exploring beating an opponent on a mini court. In KS1, pupils will have already developed an understanding of how to use a racket or a bat to control a ball and send a ball accurately into space and so this unit takes that next step into the basic application of these skills. Beginning the unit by using their hands, pupils will aim at space and try to use their accurate throwing skills in order to beat an opponent. Later, pupils will have the opportunity to progress onto using a racket or bat and show resilience as they develop their technique.
