Description

The unit introduces batting vs fielding. Pupils will develop an understanding of the purpose of each team and learn how to apply a variety of skills such as throwing and stopping the ball to keep the batter’s score low as well as their competence in striking in order to score points when batting.

This unit builds on pupils' understanding of using throwing, hitting and striking skills in order to win a game. By drawing on this prior knowledge and understanding from KS1, pupils will develop integrity as they take that first step in learning about striking and fielding games, developing their competence at executing a variety of skills. This initial unit will take a generic look at the batting and fielding before later starting to utilise these skills in more focused units later in KS2.
