Comprehensive

planning support

Planning is simple with editable medium-term plans

and step-by-step lesson plans.

Support

Reduce the number of beasts or

repeat the same patterns.

Extend

Encourage more independent

movement without help.

Reflect and review:

Ask the children to discuss their

favourite minibeast movements.

Ask:

–

Howwell can youmove in time to

themusic?

Warm-up:

Musical statues

Ask the children to spread out around the room. Play

the music for the children to move and dance to, and

when you stop the music, the children must stop still

and not move - like statues. When the music starts

again, the children continue dancing.

Skills learning and development:

Introduce the theme of the Ugly bug ball. The children

will create a dance to put together in three phases.

1. Ugly bugs going to the ball.

2. Bugs at the ball (medieval ballroom dancing).

3. All the bugs go home separately.

First, the children will explore how ugly bugs move.

Name some minibeasts – caterpillar, spider, butterfly,

woodlouse, grasshopper and snail. Allow the children

time to explore how each of these might move.

It is key to consider the level and speed at which

they move. The children share ideas and try out the

movements.

Ask the children to agree on their favourite four

minibeasts.

Develop the movements so that the children perform

the moves for a count of 8 or 16. They practise so that

everyone changes their movements at the same time.

Application and practice:

Play the music while the children listen. Point out the

introduction – this is when the children will gradually

move into a space from the edges of the room into

their first minibeast position and move about.

As the music changes, they go into their ugly bug

moves.

Support

Allow the children to decide

how hard they push themselves.

Extend

Challenge the children to tense

all of their muscles throughout

these moves.

Reflect and review:

Ask:

–

Howdo you feel after takingpart

in this exercise?

–

Whichmovedid you likebest and

why?

Warm-up:

Perform the following moves in beats of eight to music.

Link the moves together as you change from one to

the next: marching on the spot, side lunges, marching,

lunges, grapevine, stretch arms, circle hips, stretch legs.

Skills learning and development:

Sitting crossed-legged, (straight back, relaxed

shoulders) ask the children to breathe in through their

nose and out through their mouth.

Repeat the above, and the children breathe in, they

raise their arms up above their head in a circular move,

and then lower them as they breathe out.

The children then shrug their shoulders to loosen them

up. Try both shoulders at the same time, and then

alternate. Next, with hands on shoulders, twist from the

waist to one side, and then the other.

With a partner, ask each child to recap on the moves

from previous sessions. They should give each other

feedback on the success of their moves.

Introduce the pencil point pose. The children sit on

the floor with their legs stretched out in front of the

body. Arms are by their side with palms face down on

the floor. Ensure they keep their backs straight and

their toes pointed. Breathe in for four and out for four.

Repeat this eight times.

In pairs, ask the children to peer assess. You could also

choose some children to model this pose to the rest of

the class.

Application and practice:

Perform a routine to link these new moves together,

along with the moves from the previous sessions, e.g.

rock pose: rest on knees with back straight and hands

on knees. Hold this for a count of eight breaths. Then

up to standing and move into mountain pose for eight

(breathe in for four and out for four); repeat eight

times. Then move into Siamese pose, and again repeat

eight times.

Move down to rock position and repeat this four times.

The children can then move into pencil point pose.

Repeat this new move four times, and then finish with

mountain top pose.

To wind down, play relaxing music as the children

lie down. Encourage them to concentrate on their

breathing.
