Running

Hedgehog Class loved their first session of curricular PE with Mr P. 

The focus of today's learning was to explore how to use our bodies to make us run as fast as possible. 

Mr P taught us the correct technique used for sprinting with the aim being to help us to run as fast as possible:

Head position - straight ahead and focused
Arms - pumping them backwards with our elbows bent and keeping them close to our body

We LOVED being able to use stopwatches to measure our success. 
 

Hedgehog Class loved their PE lesson with Mr P this week. Longer distance runs were the order of the day with children returning to the stop watches to time themselves to see if they could improve their personal best time for 3 laps of the school field. Minutes, seconds and even hundredths of a second were required - all very serious! I wonder if you can spot who's leading the pack?
