This gymnastics group balances for groups of 4 reference sheet and task card set are perfect for your Primary or Secondary Gymnastics Lessons. This resource includes a set of Gymnastics group balances task cards for group balances and routines as well as a differentiated visual aid (with around 30 balances) students can use to copy the group balances from.
The task cards contain 16 tasks on 13 pages. The tasks take students through how to match, mirror and complement individual balances as well as creating their own interpretations independently. They also included tasks that use the group of 4 balances resource sheet:
Students select and practice
Find ways of getting into and out of the balances
Linking 2 group of 4 balances together
Developing their own 4 person balances by matching and mirroring pairs balances, trio balances, top positions or base positions given
Creating a short sequence
Easiest to hardest: Green, Yellow, Red, Purple
I would only suggest purple and red to those that are really competent gymnasts and have done some sports acro before - otherwise support would be required.
Recommendations for use for the A4 resource card:
Give each group a copy of the resource and they can self differentiate
Give each group a copy and give them a colour to try based on their ability
Ask students to pick a balance and change one of the positions to create a new balance and show the class
Get students to adapt the balances for apparatus

This Lesson is a comprehensive lesson plan for Dribbling in hockey for beginners. Probably most appropriate for year 7.
This was created to save time for busy teachers and is made so teachers with little/no hockey experience can teach it just as well as those with lots. You should be able to teach a lesson with minimal preparation and I made these so in most cases they can be just picked up and taught.
Each lesson has assessment levels, clear teaching points, afl opportunities and clear explanations of the tasks. There are no timings included as each school can vary in terms of lesson time. They should provide enough tasks for lessons of 40 minutes and above.

A lesson on using Pythagoras theorem. Includes a powerpoint teaching students about how to apply Pythagoras’ theorem, a differentiated workbook and a rounding dominos activity for the starter. Skills covered include using Pythagoras to find the hypotenuse, using Pythagoras to find the short side and length of a set of coordinates, using Pythagoras to find the perimeter of compound shape
Time saving resource for busy teachers! You should be able to teach a lesson with hardly any preparation (mainly printing and maybe some cutting!).
Students will need to know how to round to significant figures and decimal places in order to access this lesson fully.
Fully differentiated objectives:
Blue:
Use Pythagoras’ theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right-angled triangle.
Gold:
Use Pythagoras’ theorem to find length of a short side in a right-angled triangle
Use Pythagoras’ theorem to find the length of a line segment, given the coordinates of the end-points.
Red:
Use Pythagoras’ theorem to find lengths and areas of compound shapes
This resource includes:
• A PowerPoint
• A differentiated Work booklet that includes self-assessment sections
• 2 sets of dominos on rounding to decimal places and significant figures to use as a starter activity (if you need a more comprehensive set of dominos click here)
• Answers
The PowerPoint includes the following format (watch the preview video here):
• Objective and levels
• A starter
• A “how to teaching portion” with animated examples
• And Afl mini whiteboard quiz
• Plenary (with answers)
Recommendations:
Laminate the dominos for use again
The powerpoint and booklet are currently set up for GCSE maths grades, however you can edit the grades to reflect KS3 or your own schools assessment criteria. In the word booklet if you change any grade (e.g the blue section) it should automatically change the rest of that colour into the same grade.
This will take up a whole lesson at least.
Need more Pythagoras??
Check out my differentiated worksheets here. Great for homework!
Students will find rounding to decimal places and significant figures more engaging with these sets of dominos. Great to use as a starter or plenary in a lesson on rounding to decimal places or significant figures, or as a starter to check for prior learning when teaching something like Trigonometry or Pythagoras. Skills include rounding to 1 decimal places, 2 decimal places, 1 significant figure, 2 significant figures, 3 significant figures and a mix of all.
This activity is a fun and novel way for students to practise rounding to decimal places and significant figures. They can start on any domino they like, answer the question, find the answer on a different domino then repeat the process. If they have answered all questions correctly they should end up back at the domino they started with.
Why dominos is a great activity:
Students can check their own answers
They will complete 20 questions in a way that is completely different from standard worksheets
Students find it fun to search for and find the answers
They can be laminated to be used again

A set of 4 resource cards for students to use for independent learning of dribbling in hockey.
Differentiated instructions for each activities are included on the cards, as are instructions to complete the task and an equipment list and layout.
This product contains the following activities:
Mine field - students need to dribble through cones without hitting them.
Slalom dribble - dribble in and out of the cones
Around the mulberry bush - students dribble around central cones and try to time their runs
Diamond dribble - dribble then pass using a diamond while timing runs
This is a great, engaging activity for a standard form lessons. Skills covered are converting standing form to ordinary numbers. Great for end of lesson consolidation, early finishers, homework or a starter . Especially if you want students to practise and consolidate standard form conversions without using a traditional worksheet.
This activity is great because students can check their own answers as they go through and most of the time they don’t realise they are answering multiple questions.
This product includes 3 unique mazes with full solutions.
Students work their way through the maze, coloring the correct answers and following the path to the next question.

Find ways of getting into and out of the balances
Linking 2 trio balances together
Developing their own trio balances from pairs balances, top positions or base positions given

This is a powerpoint and workbooklet for constructions and accurate drawings where students will learn how to recap how to construct lines, angles, circles and triangles using a ruler and protractor. Then they will move onto constructing perpendicular bisectors and angles.
This is a time saving resource for busy teachers. You should be able to teach a lesson with hardly any preparation (mainly printing and maybe some cutting!).
Fully differentiated objectives:
Blue: Draw accurate lines, angles, circles and triangles (using ruler and protractor)
Gold:Construct perpendicular bisectors (including through a point)
Red:Construct angle bisectors
Challenge (Purple): construct a triangle using a compass (this is not on the powerpoint and is an independent task for students to see if they can work it out)
This resource includes:
• A PowerPoint
• A differentiated Work booklet that includes self-assessment sections
• Answers ( I recommend printing them onto tracing paper as it is very easy to mark then!)
• 3 foldable how to guides for how to do constructions (perpendicular bisector, perpendicular bisector through a point, angle bisector). This is for students to have some independent learning/to help with revision in place of putting it all on the powerpoints. See the preview pictures for what they look like.
The PowerPoint includes the following format (watch the preview video Here):
• Objective and levels
• A “how to teaching portion” with animated examples
• Plenary (with answers)
Recommendations:
Print off the 3 per page foldables on different colours for different topics (see the cover image for an example) -This will involve some extra preparation from the teacher
Print off the 3 topics on one page foldables on white and students can colour the titles in and cut out the foldables themselve - less preparation for the teacher
The powerpoint and booklet are currently set up for GCSE maths grades, however you can edit the grades to reflect KS3 or your own schools assessment criteria. In the word booklet if you change any grade (e.g the blue section) it should automatically change the rest of that colour into the same grade.
