Product Description

From the Author

This is an excellent book for any coach, PE teacher or primary school teacher. It contains 100 fun activities that children will love playing. I use many of the games/activities in my daily teaching and coaching. There are many warm up ideas and fun games with the majority requiring little equipment. There are a number of sports specific chapters (e.g. basketball and netball, soccer and hockey) as well as a chapter containing games for use with a parachute.

4.0 out of 5 stars Brings ordinary sport games to life! 26 May 2009
Format:Paperback
This is a great little book that has many ideas to help spice up ordinary sports games (e.g. basketball, football, baseball, etc). Kids will really enjoy the different alternatives as opposed to just another boring game of rounders. Great for teachers or activity leaders. Only down-side is the rather expensive price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun and Games review 21 Feb 2009
Format:Paperback
Fun and games is a fantastic collection of ideas which have had a major impact in the teaching and learning of Physical Education in our school. The ideas are original and innovative and allow different learners access to a range of challenging skills. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to teachers of all key stages and would suggest it would be a valuable research in raising the standards of teaching within your department. It provides new and experienced teachers differentiated ways of developing the skills taught in class which is fun and enjoyable for the students. I have also recommended this book to all our level one coaches as a way of broadening their coaching ideas as many of the games are easy to set up and implement.
