More About This Unit
What do our 1st Grade Soccer PE plans cover?
In Grade One Soccer, children should improve their ability to move fluently changing speed and direction. They should continue to develop key fundamental movement skills, both with and without a ball, moving in a safe way.
Our 1st Grade Soccer lessons help children develop basic ball control, experiment with different types of sending and receiving, and show some success when aiming at a target.
Why are Soccer lessons important for elementary-age children?
Soccer lessons play an important role in elementary school Phys Ed. They provide opportunities for students to master basic movements and develop fundamental movement skills such as running, jumping, throwing, and catching, and developing balance, agility, and coordination. Soccer lessons also give children a chance to participate in team games, using simple tactics and forming simple plans to achieve success.
Elementary School Soccer is also great for promoting values such as respect and for helping children become physically confident and competent to support their health and fitness.
