Greet students at the door and ask them to proceed to team positions.

Say to students: 

  • Today is going to be an exciting time to use many of the skills you have learned and practiced in Physical Education throughout the year!
  • You have learned and used so many different skills, and it’s going to be fun putting those skills into action today! It will be a great time to show what you know and how well you know it!
  • We call these two things: competence and confidence! Repeat those two words after me please (Competence/Confidence)

*If preparing for a cumulative event such as field day, share this with students in the welcome so they will understand why/how they will be using their previously learned skills.

Transition:

Direct students to stand in personal space in their team position. Say to students, show me your biggest smile if you are ready to move, have fun and show off your skills today!
