Basic rules:

• Don't hurt anyone
• What has been built must not be broken
• If something goes wrong (e.g. breaking the basic rules or being too loud), everyone can apply the STOP rule (everyone stops - then the problem is resolved among the children)

Topics of the psychomotor lesson

• Own body perception
• Strengthening the class community
• Recognize and observe structure/limits/rules
• Practicing social behavior
• Experience yourself and others in a different context (we build something together) – discover new strengths in yourself and others
• Mutual appreciation
• Learn to resolve conflicts independently
• Action planning (what material do I need for my project, which space is suitable?)
• Promote self-confidence
• Support motor skills
• Promote language/verbal expressions desired

Course of a psychomotor lesson

• Hello - Round (Arriving, noticing the others)
• Repeat basic rules (clear agreement)
• The fast game: “Hot chips, fried potato game, hunter’s ball, tire piercing,...” (own body awareness, motor skills)
• Material/body experience: cloths, tires, balls... what can you play with them? Collect game ideas and try them out (alone and together)
• Joint meeting:
• What do you want to build and play today?
• What material do you need for this?
• Where do you want to build?
• Who do you want to build and play with? (Language, continuing material experience and action planning, finding play partners)
• Construction in compliance with the basic rules (social behavior, motor skills, implementation of the plan, self-confidence, observance of rules, stimulation of the imagination)
• Appreciative round (reporter round): What have you built – tell us! (active language, checking the action plan, listening to each other, self-confidence)
• Role play with the built “playgrounds” (observe mutual rules, e.g.: “You are only allowed to enter our ship through this door – otherwise it will easily break!”)
• Cleaning up: Everyone cleans up their used material (structured action, social behavior)
• Relaxation: “Hedgehog walk, pizza massage, tiger raspberry” (body experience, social behavior)
• Reflection: "What did you like/not like today?" Language, appreciation, self-confidence)
• “The big goodbye” (farewell)
