Year 6 have been enjoying  Gymnastics and Tennis, their two weekly PE lessons this term.

 

In Tennis, we have been practising these skills individually and with our partners:

  • To develop placement of the ball using forehand and backhand.

  • To develop accuracy and consistency using the underarm serve.

  • To develop volleys.

  • To employ tactics when playing with a partner.

  • To apply rules, skills and principles to play against an opponent.

Today, on this beautiful sunny day, we had the chance to put all of  our tennis skills into practice with doubles matches, where we had to work as a team with our partner instead of against them. We took it in turns to serve from the baseline and played against lots of different pairs of opponents. We had a great time, showing our developing tennis skills and having fun in the fresh air.

Which is your favourite P.E. lesson at school and why, Year 6?
