HPE - Unit 1: Super Me, Super We - LESSON PLANS + Student Workbook - Year 1 & 2

Tired of spending your weekends planning? Transform your Year 1 and Year 2 Health & PE lessons with this complete, 9-week gamified unit that turns the "Superhero Academy" adventure of Identity, Emotional Regulation and Movement into reality!

Step into the world of "Unit 1: Super Me, Super We", a comprehensive Health & PE unit designed to save you time and deeply engage your Early Primary students. This unit focuses on building a strong foundation in Self-Awareness and Emotional Regulation, blending an age-appropriate introduction to "Invisible Powers" with active movement challenges, while connecting physical education to social concepts like respect, collaboration and body control.

Packed with interactive, hands-on simulations, this unit will transform your hall or oval into a dynamic "Superhero Academy" where students don't just learn about health, they live it as Race Car Drivers controlling their engines, Emotion Statues and Members of the "Giant Brain".

What's Inside? This 9-week unit is meticulously planned to help you deliver exceptional PE lessons with confidence. You will find:

9 Weeks of Engaging Lesson Plans: Guide your students through a journey of discovery, from mastering body control in the 'Mirror Mirror Warm-Up' , discovering their 'Origin Story' through skipping and hopping , learning to shift their 'Body Engine' gears and uniting as "One Giant Brain" with the parachute in 'Super Squad Cooperation'.

Australian Curriculum Aligned: This unit is fully aligned with the Year 1 and 2 Health and Physical Education curriculum (AC9). It explicitly covers key descriptors for Personal, Social and Community Health (e.g. AC9HP2P01 Identity, AC9HP2P03 Emotional Responses) and Movement and Physical Activity (e.g. AC9HP2M01 Movement Skills, AC9HP2M02 Movement Situations), focusing on skills like identifying personal qualities, dodging, and locomotor skills.

Project-Based & Experiential Learning: Foster genuine understanding with interactive and creative activities that make social concepts memorable. Imagine your students becoming 'Race Cars' shifting from Gear 5 (Sprint) to Gear 1 (Walk), 'Emotion Statues' identifying physical body clues and 'Designers' creating their own Super Suits to represent their inner and outer strengths.

Built-in Assessment & Differentiation: Effortlessly monitor student progress through natural observation opportunities embedded in each activity. Evaluate their 'Body Control' during the Mirror Game, review their 'Regulation Strategies' like "Hot Chocolate Breathing" in the Calm-Down Corner and assess their 'Evasion Skills' as they master the "Plant and Push" technique.

Early Career Connections: Expose students to potential future pathways by weaving career education into every lesson. Connect activities to the work of a Personal Trainer, Author, Sports Coach, Actor, Race Car Driver, Psychologist, Firefighter, Stunt Person and Graphic Designer.

Summative Assessment Task: Conclude the unit with the comprehensive "Superhero Graduation" task, where students navigate the 'Superhero Combine' obstacle course to demonstrate physical skill and regulation, and design their official 'Superhero ID Card', complete with a student-friendly rubric for marking.

FREE Student Workbook also included.
