Command Sports

Objectives

The learner can consolidate new vocabulary.

Preparation

Introduce the commands, the meaning and the moves e.g.

Command high knees!
Command jump!
Command sit!

Instructions

• Form a circle.
• Give a command and make the appropriate move. The learners copy you.
  Do this a couple of times.
• Add a rule: a learner who’s made a mistake, gives the next commands.
• Add another rule: if you give the instruction without introducing it with the word ‘Command’, the learners must remain still.

Add a last rule: give a command but make a different move. The challenge for the learners is to follow the command but not to copy the move.

Tips for the instructor

Increase the fun by increasing the speed of the exercise.
