To do it our students will work in groups so they will be in charge of learning specially about one of the games so they will be able to explain it later to their classmates and also, they will work on the creation of the materials together. We will play different games these are some examples: 

- Ringing the bull

- Jumping the rope (skipping rope) singing songs such as: o Robin Hood o Teddy Bear o Jump With Me o Bumper Car

- Toad in the hole

Technology and Arts and Crafts 

In order to play different games, we need to create the specific materials that we are going to need in Technology, and they will decorate them in Arts and Crafts. They can learn how people from other countries do their own materials to play these games, they can also learn how they decorate them and the techniques they use to do it. 

Music 

They will also learn songs in Music so they will be able to sing them while doing different activities such as jumping the rope. They will learn where from are these songs, and how important they are for people’s culture. 

English

They can learn about the British culture and the places where they play these games, also about the time of the year that they play them, etc. They can also learn about similarities with Spanish traditional games and specific vocabulary that they will need to play. 

They will play the games when everything will be finish. They will enjoy their own creations and also the high school will earn more materials for the PE area because we can ask our students to give us their creations after the unit so more students can enjoy and learn about British games.

Sometimes I find it easier to explain some contents that we are going to see in our classes by making them watch a video on their own. So for this flipped classroom activity they have to watch this video on the internet and answer some questions after. We will treat this contents in class later. I like to use this kind of content for the 3rd grade. You can see in the next page the activity that I give to my students through google teams so they can learn more about nutrition, diet, macronutrients, etc.

DIET AND ENERGY SOURCES 

First of all, please answer these two questions before you watch the video. 

A. BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO 

1. What do you think "balanced diet" means? 

2. What does your body use for energy?

Watch this video about diet and energy sources. Pay attention because after you watch it you must answer some questions. 

                     https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g99HsEihogg

B. AFTER WATCHING THE VIDEO: 

1. Name all the macronutrients 

2. What is the main role for carbohydrates? 

3. What kind of nutrients provide fibre? 

4. What nutrient can be easily stored in our body? 

5. What nutrient is important for athletes’ recovery? 

6. Who needs to consume more calories adults or teenagers? 

7. Who needs to consume generally more calories men or women? 

8. Which foods are sources of carbohydrates? Write at least 5 examples 

9. Which foods are sources of proteins? Write at least 5 examples

11. What happens when we consume more calories than the body uses? 

12. How can we keep track of the energy that we consume? 

13. What kind of nutrients will need a rugby player after a match? Why? 

14. Could you tell me what kind of nutrient is important to consume when doing exercise during a hot summer afternoon? 

Write in your own words the importance of a balance diet.
