Outdoor Learning Autumn 1
During our outdoor learning lessons the pupils have been developing their team working skills a new tutor groups. The boys have shown resilience when faced with new challenges and losing in games. They have engaged with learning new team games and working with peers that they do not always work with. They have also built trust through activities such as blind folded mazes and trust falls.
When faced with challenges and adapting to the different
rules to a new game the boys took their time to understand what was asked of
them and the main objectives of the lessons were. Once they understood that,
they were able to break down step by step instructions given to them when
required. For example, when the group of pupils scored points using team work
it was important to highlight the impact and the reward working as a team will
get them.
The boys have been demonstrating their ability to work and motivate each other within a team in game settings through communication and listening to each other. They worked together to get the outdoor learning area clear and ready to do other activities after half term.
