Physical Activity

Hi all,

My assessor is due to visit soon, I work with children 2-4 years. I have to plan and carry out a physical activity to cover CYPOP4. I am thinking of having balls (different sizes) football net, basketball net etc in our large indoor room as this would suit all ages and encourage hand eye coordination, lots of body movements and allow children to express themselves in a large physical environment. Some children may want to run around fast, while others may concentrate on throwing and catching etc.
Please let me know what you think. If I was going to use our garden it is not big enough for this activity but I could use slide, sand etc.

I am also being assessed on health and safety (CYP3.4) the same day. I will risk assess my activity before hand!

Thank you for your help I feel very behind on this diploma as our assessor couldn't start until January even though we started course in Sept and when I read how many units other people have had signed off it will be a miracle if we all complete this by July 11...!

Balls and catch points sound great add the consideration to change environments to your risk assessment, a good thought for children's freedom to explore/learning of spatial awareness and the danger of many collisions.

Hope you have fun with it xx

Babies and young children need physical activities and exercise to increase their stamina and strength this will improve muscle tone and muscle usage. Leading to Better balance and flexibility in the child, Improved bone strength and heart and lung capacity, improved coordination, catching and throwing skills, enjoyment, motivation and social skills, energy boost, helps stop stress and anxiety, positive affect of self esteem. Physical activity and movement help stimulate much brain growth and facilitate key connections for learning, regular exercise and engagements in all varieties of physical activity are critical for healthy brain development in children. pre mobile needs time to develop muscle tone so they can begin to crawl. These activities are used good for physical development at our preschool indoors stairs, wooden large bricks to climb and balance on, moving to music, balls to roll, soft play to climb on and move about on. Sit and ride toy which changes into a walker. Outside slides, logs to climb and balance on, trikes and balance bikes, tractor wheels to climb and use to pull on, balls to roll. These are some of the activities we have at the preschool our environments are planned around giving the child the maximum opportunities to have physical activities and children need space to do physical activities.

this should help you

with children 3 and over its part of the curriculum, and with any age it promotes a healthy attitude to exercise
if you have a study book such as Children's Care Learning & Development by Penny Tassoni etc nvq units 303 & 307 should help. sorry I don't know the equivalent unit numbers for Diploma course
