Physical Activity observation
 
hia my assessor is coming out next week to watch me do a physical activity with the children.

as our topic at work next week is under the sea, ive found a game called 'Running Fishies' and just wondered if this would be ok for my physical activity observation?

this is how you play the game:

Sit players in a circle, facing outwards. Label each player with the name of a fish.

I will call out the name of a fish. All the living fishes with that name stand up and run around the circle. If I calls out the following, the
players should change their behaviour as they move around the circle as follows:
calm sea = walk
rough sea = run
choppy sea = jumping round the circle

This continues until I call “sharks are coming”. The runners then run back to their starting place as quickly as possible. The last player back is 'eaten' by the shark and faces inwards. Inwards facing fishes no longer run.
