KS1 Dance – Toys SOL

UPDATED AND IMPROVED ON 21/02/2022

This resource is for KS1 teachers teaching dance through the Physical Education part of the national curriculum during the topic of toys (or any topic connected to toys, gifts, celebration etc).
This ‘Toys’ scheme of work is great to teach after the holiday season. It allows pupils to share their holiday experience through emotion and movement games along with developing their creativity through choreography tasks.

This SOL comes with:

• 6 lesson plans, detailing the activities in each lesson along with coaching points to aid teaching.
• A 6 lesson PowerPoint including notes under each slide to help with the delivery of the lesson.
• A CPD document that should help with aspects of teaching dance that a none dance specialist might find helpful.

Notes:
The timings of the lesson and the activities within the lesson plans can of course be adapted. Activities can be changed, lengthened, shortened, taken out, differentiated etc.
Feel free to adapt this resource to suit your own needs as well as the needs of the children.
Feel free to use your own music. I used ‘Epic Music – Toys Come Alive’ on YouTube

I loved teaching this SOL and I hope you do too. If you find it helpful, I would massively appreciate it if you could leave me a review 
