My PGCE experience

Today i ran 3 P.E sessions, i took Y4, 5 and 6 sessions. I was kind of dreading it as i didn't know if the pupils would be very well behaved as i know how giddy they can get during PE but they were really enthusiastic and seemed to really enjoy it. I used warm up and cool down tasks that i have learnt through my dance training and they got really into them. I've also been asked to run an after school street dance class on Thursday which should be fun. Y6 were especially well behaved as they got sent back from their PE lesson yesterday for not behaving, so i guess i got an easy job of it. I think what i learnt most today was how to control the pupils after an energetic activity. I found the best way wasn't too shout. My class teacher told me to blow the PE whitsle and count to 3 out loud, this really worked and the class were silent before i got to 3.
