5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the PE-phobic teacher... :), 25 May 2010
This review is from: Games, Ideas and Activities for Primary PE (Classroom Gems) (Paperback)
As with the Classroom Gems Mathematics book, it has clearly laid-out activities where hints and tips have been given in concise chunks. As an NQT without a great deal of PE experience, I have found this series invaluable to dip into, and have shared them experienced teachers who have also found new and interesting teaching ideas within. A great present for those entering the primary classroom - particularly if, like me, you need some guidance with the rules and ideas behind the equipment!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not suitable for Foundation Stage, 12 Feb 2011
This review is from: Games, Ideas and Activities for Primary PE (Classroom Gems) (Paperback)
Good layout and probably great for key stage 2+ but I bought if for foundation stage and only managed to use 2 ideas form the book. There is a lot on team sport i.e football in it, I don't consider myself to be a PE 'phobic' and guess that this book would be suitable for someone who didn't really like PE but for older children.

4.0 out of 5 stars Handy hints and Ideas, 27 Mar 2010

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Games, Ideas and Activities for Primary PE (Classroom Gems) (Paperback)
I've two of these Classroom Gems books now. What I find really useful about them is that the ideas are practical and adaptable. Where appropiate they highlight the Cross-Curriculem links and they effectively give suggestions for an entire lesson plan, so when stuck and need quick ideas, most of the hard work has been taken care of for you. This book follow suit and give loads of ideas that could easily be applied when playing popular sports and games for most curcumstances, rather than just having a 'kick around' for the lack of nothing else to do.
I'm not that experienced in playing sports...let alone teaching them, so I found this very well laid out and presented well to help me make my last few physical activity lessons that were thrust upon me at the last minute a little more interesting and more structured.
