10 lesson scheme of work suitable for KS3. Each lesson includes a starter / intro activity, learning outcomes, skill development practices, games & plenaries.
The lessons provided are ones I have used with my KS3 groups & work for a range of abilities. Activities have challenge / progression activities as well as scaffolded ideas to support low ability groups.
Lessons:
Basic grip & rules
Basic shot: Push
Basic shot: Drive
Serve
Topspin
Backspin / Slice
Doubles
Advanced shot: Loop
Advanced shot: Smash
Tournament
Also included;
Resource cards to support teaching of different shots - serve, push, drive, topspin.
Table tennis skills station cards which can be used at any point for independent learning / recap lessons.
GCSE table tennis assessment criteria which helps make good links to the GCSE spec (Edexcel)
Table tennis tournament template - Easier to print / add names.
These lessons were created to be embedded into the KS3 curriculum and give students a taste of what studying PE at KS4 entails. The aim of these lessons is to give students a basic understanding of key topics studied in GCSE PE and engage students in a different way of learning in KS3 PE lessons which would normally be completely practically based.
Students will complete one theory lesson during each block of practical lessons throughout the year (one theory lesson every 6-7 weeks). Throughout KS3 students should develop a basic understanding of all topics before starting GCSE PE in year 10.
The lessons were tailored to the Edexcel GCSE PE (2016) specification and each year group focuses on a different topic within their lessons.
*Would be suitable for other GCSE PE qualifications with similar content.
*Also useful as a wet weather / cover lesson to keep students engaged in a classroom.
Included:
7 lessons based around one ‘Big Question’ on Sport psychology and Socio-cultural influences.
A graphic organiser / booklet which can be printed out and given to students to work in each lesson (in place of working in an exercise book).
A PowerPoint with all 7 lessons – Each lesson including…
o Title slide
o Engage/starter tasks
o Shared learning outcomes – using big & small question
o Share new information – Students fill in the blanks in their booklets to gather new information shared in the lesson.
o Mini plenaries to check understanding throughout the lesson.
o Tasks – Application activities where students demonstrate their learning.
o Final task is to complete the ‘small question’ for the lesson which involves an extended answer. Hints included to support students with what to include and a ‘WAGOLL’ of what a good one looks like!
o Plenary task to wrap up the lesson.
Links to GCSE curriculum: Each lesson includes GCSE content which has been simplified / scaffolded to be suitable for younger students. Extended answers to the small question at the end of the lesson use the same ‘PEB’ structure that is encouraged at GCSE level (Point, Explain, Benefit).
*Some videos which were initially embedded into the PPT have been removed to reduce file size. Links for the videos have been posted into the slides.

Includes:
Power point and learning outcomes. Starter activity similar to scrabble, to create a word relating to the topic using the letter tiles on the screen (good bit of numeracy!)
Graffiti wall - students to write what they know about each question on fitness testing - can refer back at the end, really effective to demonstrate progress.
Main activity is an information relay. Provide each group with a large, blank handout to complete. One student at a time goes to look at the completed handout at the front / outside the classroom to bring information back to their group.
Final slide gives a plenary activity for students to answer some questions on fitness testing.

Health and Performance - One page revision sheets - Edexcel GCSE PE Component 2
Includes a one page revision sheet for the topics covered in component 2:
Health, Fitness and Well-Being
Sport Psychology
Socio-cultural influences
3 lessons created to deliver remotely on Teams to my GCSE PE group whilst they were isolating at home.
Powerpoint includes:
Lesson on topic 1 - Health, fitness & well-being (focusing on lifestyle choices & diet).
Lesson on topic 2 - Sport Psychology (focusing on feedback & mental preparation).
Lesson on topic 3 - Socio-cultural influences (focusing on influences on participation & sporting behaviours).
Each lesson contains:
Starter activity to define key words from the topic.
Topic recap of everything that is included in the topic.
Content slides to recap a particular area of the topic (this was chosen based on their performance in the most recent mock assessment).
4 practice questions with PowerPoint timers & self-assessment slides.
9 mark answer to set on Teams after the live lesson has finished.
My group enjoyed being able to still complete some revision at home in the format of a normal lesson. Students only need a pen & paper to complete the work so it is easily accesible & requires no handouts to be provided before students are isolating.
This is an excel spreadsheet which I have developed to monitor progress of the GCSE PE cohort & also speed up a lot of data analysis work!
Spreadsheet includes:
Overview tab which demonstrates progress over time & performance in all 6 assessments.
Individual assessment tabs to show marks scored in each question.
Staff need to update the tracker by inputting individual question marks into the correct assessment tab - the total score, % and WAG are automatically generated, as well as the overview tab at the front. Each question is RAG rated to show which questions need to be revised!
PPT instructions file included.
Includes 6 end of topic assessments & mark schemes. *Note that the tracker is set up to be used alongside these assessments - using different assessments will require the exam tabs to be amended.
Full scheme of work for ‘Applying principles of training’ (R042) unit. From Cambridge National Level 2 Sport Science.
Scheme of work includes:
121 slide PowerPoint covering all 4 learning outcomes.
All lessons centered around a big ‘learning question’ which they work on throughout the unit. (How can training programmes be designed to develop sporting performance?)
Each learning outcome contains lessons to develop content & understanding of the topic, with application to tasks / scenarios to prepare them for the assessed work at the end.
At the end of each learning outcome is an ‘assessment preparation’ task which provides information on the assessed piece of work, mark scheme and what needs to be included.
LO3 includes interactive PPT slides where students can navigate themselves to the fitness test information they want to find out - by clicking on hyperlinked buttons within the PPT (view on slide show to access).
Also included:
Fitness testing record sheets
Fitness testing protocols & normative data
PAR-Q
6 week training programme template
This scheme of work has been developed alongside a series of practical based fitness lessons to secure understanding of the theory covered in the SOW. I have provided students access to this PowerPoint using MS Teams so they have the information they need to write their assignments.
Based on Edexcel, but content is easily transferable to other exam boards.
Includes:
Powerpoint and learning outcomes.
Starter activity to recap bones from previous lesson (skeletal system).
Presents new information on joints and types of movement to give an understanding before main task.
Main task to work around the room completing a worksheet on the 8 sports people, identifying joint, joint action and articulating bones.
Differentiated worksheet
Final task students apply their knowledge to exam questions & self/peer assess with given mark scheme.
*I did this lesson in the sportshall, with the powerpoint projected onto the wall, with the pictures printed and stuck around the hall. This gave space for the students to work & you could see them performing the actions on the pictures to try and figure out the joint / bones which are involved in the movement! The students really enjoyed the lesson & were really engaged throughout!

Includes:
Revision questions on components of fitness (Differentiated). I did this by giving pairs one of the 3 cards (high ability / middle / low ability) and getting them to choose a question to answer. They needed to create a mark scheme of what they thought should go into a good answer for their question. The questions can then be answered by another pair who give their answer back, and have it marked by the students.
Components of fitness loop card game - Print and cut the cards from the power point and hand out to the students. The first one stands up and reads out the question on their card, and the person who has the answer stands up and carries it on. (The cards are printed in the correct order so will need shuffling before handing out!!)
The students really enjoyed the loop card game! Creating mark schemes can be difficult, but once they get the hang of it their exam answers will massively improve!
Cricket non-participant / self-assessment worksheet
I created this resource to use with a non-participant in my Y7 & Y8 cricket groups & also for cover for a student in isolation.
Suitable for KS3.
Differentiated for less / more able.
Edexcel GCSE PE (New Spec) Revision sheet - Component 2 Topic 1 - Health, fitness and well-being
