The Shoe Challenge - Warmer for Physical Education lesson or Sports day

A fun PE warmer using shoes and including everyone! This warmer activity is widely used in summer camps across Europe but after covering PE lessons in normal primary and secondary it works very well as a whole group activity whereby everyone can take part. This activity is also useful for a warmer to any Physical Education lesson, every student can take part. It is also very good to use in sports day, students can all take part in an atmosphere where there are mixed abilities, for example it could be used with year groups and form classes and form tutors can take part too. With regards to differentiation the teams will be mixed up into different abilities so stronger learners from separate teams will aid weaker learners; the groups are all mixed ability. It allows learners to achieve the outcome of taking part in outdoor and adventurous activity challenging both individually and within a team and also to compare their performances with previous ones and demonstrate improvement.
