Power Up! Fitness Circuit
Category: Fitness · 4-page printable PDF · Ages 5-6 · Free for ConnectedPE members
A high-energy Year 5–6 fitness and conditioning circuit: six bodyweight stations plus two whole-class Minute to Win It bursts that spike the energy right when a circuit usually sags. Every station card carries Foundation and Challenge variations, coaching cues, and the pack closes with an equipment checklist for a friction-free setup.
The two-tier design does the differentiating for you — students self-select intensity at each station, which keeps the movers moving and the developing students succeeding rather than surviving. Coaching cues on every card mean your station instructions survive even when you're across the gym — and the Minute to Win It bursts reunite the class twice per session for shared, competitive fun. Mapped to AC9HPE6M01.
Four pages, bodyweight-only, minimal equipment. Run it as a recurring fitness session, a unit opener to establish circuit routines, or a reliable sub-ready lesson that any teacher could deliver from the cards alone.
