Dear Parents,


Improving our locomotor skills was our main goal in October. We worked hard on run-

ning different distances, both short and long. We played many relay games in which
both changing directions and speed were very important in order to comply with a given

task. We practiced long jumps, and did a lot of jumping over a rope as well, challenging

ourselves by increasing the height in each try. We liked throwing bean bags and Fris-
bees into targets (goals and small basketball hoops).


Obstacle courses were something we all enjoyed a lot and we will keep practicing them

throughout the school year.


Next we moved on to our Ball Handling Unit. Different sized balls (e.g. handballs, bas-

ketballs and some sponge balls) helped us become more secure in our ball handling
skills.


We practiced dribbling the ball on spot, in walk and changing the direction of dribbling.


We worked on throwing the ball in a variety of ways: over our heads or through legs,

facing a partner or standing back to back to him.


We learned the basics of shooting technique – we worked on shooting balls into goals

from different distances, using both, one and two hands. We also tried to score goals by
kicking from different positions on the court, without and with goal keepers on a goal.


Passing in pairs and in groups is always fun for us, so we had fun while becoming bet-

ter and better in ball handling activities.
