Surviving My First PGCE PE Class! :D

We were meant to how our first PE lesson some four weeks ago, but our lesson ended up being postponed. As a result, a sense of dread had developed amongst my friends and I about the lesson, not least because the tutor is rather enthusiastic, perhaps overly so.

Nevertheless, we survived and everyone seemed to enjoy it. We must have looked like lunatic asylum patients for quite a lot of it - moving in 'trains' by running/hopping/crawling/etc, at other times throwing up a ball and clapping as many times as we could whilst also swapping our balls with another 'trains'. Everyone laughed though and the tutor [thankfully a stand-in as the normal tutor was absent] made sure we all understood the purpose of the warm up activities we did. For example, she showed us the criteria for outstanding PE lessons and we could tick off everything on the list from the activities we did. :D

A few of the sessions to come are still a little scary - dance and gymnastics in particular - but the rest sound pretty good and it was quite nice to do something a little different on a Monday afternoon [3pm-5pm lol]. :D
