LKS2 – Classes 5 & 7 – PE

Today in PE, year 3 continued their topic of cricket. This week, we based our learning and games around how to be a fielder. To begin with, we did a warm up of scarecrow tig and then familiarised ourselves with the various cricket positions with a warm up activity involving wickets and a ball. After, we split off into groups of 8 and got into these different positions such as a wicket keeper, two batters/ runners and fielders. The aim of the final activity was for the  fielders to use teamwork to retrieve a ball back to the keeper whilst the ‘batters’ took turns to run from wicket to wicket before the ball was returned.
