3 complete lessons on diet and food for GCSE PE including test with homework tasks.

Lesson 1 includes a powerpoint to follow with notes attached giving contextual information. It also comes with a worksheet for lower ability students to follow. Some printing will be required prior to the lesson as students are required to show pictures of food (26 pics are included) and state what food group they're in and later which are the best examples of certain nutrients. Lesson 2 follows a similar plan of powerpoint with teacher notes and worksheet. This lesson is primarily about calories and finishes with a drawing task where students have to draw a previous meal (drawing framework included) and then work out the calorific content. This makes a great display and also allows students to work out what exercise they would need to do to 'burn off' their meal. Lesson 3 is again powerpoint based and deals with food imbalance. This can be a sensitive topic and so should be dealt with carefully. This needs some preparation in terms of bringing some flipchart paper for groupwork and some highlighters. There are a number of articles included about anorexia, obesity and malnutrition that students should highlight. Each one has a colour coded title to allow you to give it to the correct student. It's a traffic light system with Red being the hardest documents to read for the more able student and green the easiest. I have included the food imbalance video which is on the powerpoint separately just in case there are any issues with uploading. Finally, there is a 25 mark GCSE style exam. Any and all feedback, positive or negative, is appreciated.

Each quiz has a selection of 25 questions in different topics with each question having a different points value. Decide on the points value and topic you want and the appropriate question pops up. Navigate to the answer using the arrows and then use the arrows again to navigate back to the question board. The options that have already been chosen appear on the question board shaded so that the same question cannot be asked twice in any one quiz. The topics are as follows: Quiz 1 Born on the 25th - identify the celebrities who have Christmas birthdays. 12 Days of Christmas - What were the gifts from the famous carol? Christmas haters - Who are the people being described? Santa Who? - Who are these famous people disguised as Father Christmas? Christmas Trivia Quiz 2 Cracker Jokes - finish off the joke. Movies - identify the Xmas movie from the picture. Santagrams - unravel the Xmas themed anagram. Santa International - What is Santa known as around the world? Santa Who? - Who are these famous people disguised as Father Christmas? I'd split the class into groups and have each group take it in turns but it can be managed in many ways. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated, either positive or developmental. Happy Christmas.

You can run this activity over a number of days or as one longer activity. There are over 50 questions that need to be cut out and folded over and an answer sheet. Each student picks a question and then answers it on their sheet. The questions are all personal and are designed to reveal a little about their personal history, their thoughts and their interests. Once complete, they return their questions and pick another. This can be done alternatively in pairs where the first student would ask their neighbour the question and write down their response so that they are learning about their classmate. The next question has to be asked to someone else and their sheet completed thereby getting to know other people too. This information can be used for a class display or a quiz based upon their classmates or just for fun to look at the following year. Sample questions: What is your favourite photo? If you could invent anything, what would it be? Some questions are closed questions, try and get students to expand upon a "Yes," or "No," answer.

Three lessons. Glossary with checklist to assess learning after every lesson. All on powerpoint and accompanied with a worksheet for Low Attainers to complete instead of making notes. Each lesson begins with a "Do Now," activity for students to complete as soon as they enter the class. Key terms are discussed at the start of the lesson. Exam style questions that are differentiated. Students choose whether to answer the 'Normal' questions or to 'Level-Up!' Tasks within the lessons are a combination of group tasks and individual tasks. It may be an idea to have groups pre-selected. Lesson 1: PE in School Lesson 2: Sports Strategies (PESSYP & PESSCL) Lesson 3: School and Healthy Lifestyles Powerpoint includes teachers notes at intervals to offer further guidance. All feedback greatly received.

Power point guides students through reviewing the previous year. Students complete 1 of 3 worksheets that asks different questions about the past year (example: Who were your best friends? What could you have done better?) Because the sheets are all different, students won't simply copy their neighbour's information. Following that activity, students move on to looking forward to 2017 and creating resolutions in four fields: School, Home, Health and Happiness. They are requested to come up with specific steps to enable them to better achieve their resolutions. There is a sheet for them to complete accordingly. Finally, we try and emulate this with school targets. It would be ideal if these were available but, if not, it could be set as a homework or an extension task to complete. Again, there is a sheet for students to complete if required. The idea for this was to review the resolutions at regular periods but it would also be nice to keep them all in a folder to get out at this time next year, becoming an ongoing activity and a nice keepsake for students. Many thanks. Any feedback, good or bad is gratefully received.

Get ready for the end of term with fun resources to fill in those crazy times that senior leadership schedule but then don't actually plan for! You know what I mean. Anyway, rant over. Fun quiz about the year we're about to leave behind, a Christmas quiz and a New Year target setting exercise to satiate those senior leaders and convince them that goal setting is the sole route to success! Sorry, ranting again.

Is Sport Sexist? Writing to argue task with lots of research activities. Ready for immediate use.

This is a topic that I would advise be completed over a two lesson period rather than rushed and squeezed into one. In my experience, most of my GCSE classes believe that sport ISN'T sexist because they see top sportswomen representing their country and people like Karren Brady and Delia Smith being influential figures at football clubs. This lesson seeks to redress those beliefs and enable students to apply a more balanced and thorough view. The lesson begins with a Do Now task where the answer is that all the activities are competed by only one gender. The main part of the lesson are a number of tasks to be completed. These can be done on an individual level or in groups. The activities are as follows: Select and retrieve. Students read one of the two articles and select passages of interest and relevance. Spot the difference. Students look at the differences between the genders in two different sports. Mystery Guest. Students name the sportspeople and attempt to explain whether they found it more difficult to name one gender over the other. Gender Equality. To add some balance there are examples of women being treated "equally" in sport, but is it fair? What’s your opinion? Some statements about sports issues that may or not be deemed sexist. Students should formulate an opinion based upon them and be able to explain their thought processes. Why the difference? A number of sports are listed with examples of the differences between them when it comes to gender participation with some questions to answer. Once students have collated some information from their sheets they get into groups with students who have had different sheets and share their info. It's important that they make notes so that they have a broad view of sport as opposed to just their info. sheet. Using these notes, students should then pick out their best points and complete the "writing to argue," worksheet. This should be the tool that enables students to write an essay using their knowledge to support their opinion. This can be done as a homework task if required. Any feedback, positive or developmental, is greatly appreciated.
