Verbal Cues

15

Internal cues (teaching points)

focus on the body movements

associated with the skill

External cues focus on the

movement effect or the outcome

associated with the skill

Internal and external cues can be used together (Palmer et.al 2017)

Landing

16

… feet wide apart

Arms stretched out

in front ...Land on the feet… toes -ball - heel

Head up...looking

straight ahead...Bum tucked under the

body Bend the knees

External Cue:

Steady head for the camera

Reach out front towards the

wall

Sit on a stool

Land with feet at either side

Using the skill of throwing,

devise a game with the following:

▪ A focus on ONE teaching point

▪ Rules for the game

▪ A scoring system

▪ Layout and safety considerations

Domain Standard

Teachers’ collective/collaborative practice

Teachers implement whole-school approaches to teaching and learning to improve pupils’ experiences and outcomes

Match the PE specific focus to the domain/standard

Is assessment used to support pupils learning in PE

classes?

Are all 15 FMS being taught

progressively 2-3 times over 8

primary school years?

Getting started: identifying a focus

1.

2.Domain Standard

Learner experiences Pupils reflect on their progress as learners and develop a sense of ownership of and responsibility for their learning

50

Getting started: identifying a focus On pg. 10 of your booklet identify which sample PE focus for SSE couldmatch the following domains and standards?

Domain Standard

Teachers’

individual practice

The teacher has the requisite subject knowledge, pedagogical knowledge and classroom management skills

A.

Domain Standard

Learner outcomes Pupils develop the knowledge, skills and understanding required by the primary curriculum

Considerations: External Facilitators

56

What are the benefits and drawbacks of utilising external facilitators in PE?

Potential Benefits

● Expertise

● Equipment

● External facilitator learning

● Teacher learning

● School community partnership

● Opportunity for class teacher to

build on their own skills

Potential Drawbacks

● Lack of curricular knowledge

● Sport Emphasis within PE

● Lack of pedagogical knowledge

● Qualifications

● Cost

● Relationships

Bowles (2014), Mangione, J. et al (2018), Griggs (2010)

Consider the impact on teaching and learning in PE

It’s best to pull whenever you can, push whenever you must, and nudge all the time (Hargreaves

and Fullan, 2012)

Leadership in PE

Pull

● Classroom displays and

hall displays

Nudge

● Sharing resources/links

with teachers

Push

● Using PE as a focus for

SSE

Consider the actions you might take to lead and support change in PE in your school on Pg. 13.
