Year 7
During HT2 year 7 students have been introduced to volleyball. The have been working hard on mastering skills in isolation. Students have looked at footwork, the dig and the set. Students have broken the skill down into coaching points and developed a secure understanding of how the skills are performed. Students practically demonstrate skills such as the dig and set. We have looked to demonstrate the dig with excellent foot position, arm position and keeping our eyes on the ball. For the set shot, we look for a diamond shape being made with their hands above the head ready to extend and hit the ball high towards the net.
Year 8
Year 8 students this half term have been working hard in the gym. They have been looking at how they can improve their aerobic and muscular endurance through the use of different methods of training. Students are also able to link exercise intensity to heart rate, so monitor this during lessons to ensure they are working hard enough.
