Free short notes and revision cards
Grade 1 Health and Physical Education on Temari has 10 revision cards, arranged by the chapters of the Ethiopian national curriculum. Every card says when the rule applies, what each symbol in it stands for, and the mistake students most often make with it. They are free to read and need no account.
When you use it
Reach for this when a question asks whether a movement is done from place to place or on the spot.
Watch out
Do not sort a movement by its name. Jumping appears in both groups: plain jumping is listed as moving from place to place, while alternating-leg jumping is listed as on the spot. Ask whether the body travels to a new place.

| Type | Meaning | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| From place to place | Movements that carry the body from one place to another | fast walking, running, walking backwards, galloping, jumping, hopping |
| On the spot | Movements done while standing in one place, moving parts of the body | balancing, alternating-leg jumping, turning the body left and right, stretching, sitting and standing up |
| Skill with balls and materials | Movements done with small balls or other materials | throwing and catching a ball, hitting a ball, rolling small balls, hanging and climbing down |
When you use it
Reach for this when asked to name or classify the types of basic movement skill, or to give an example of each.

When you use it
Reach for this when asked how to perform the brick brick lower-body movement, which is a series of jumping steps.
Watch out
Land on the pad of the foot and raise the shoulders while doing it. Both are required points of this movement.

| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Stand in a space with enough room. For bending or turning, mark the spot and stand on it. |
| 2 | Listen to the music or the clapping. |
| 3 | Coordinate the arm, shoulder or waist movement with the beat you hear. |
| 4 | Perform the movement quickly. |
When you use it
Reach for this when asked how to perform a rhythmic upper-body movement such as clapping, shoulder movement, forward and backward bending, or left and right turning.
Watch out
When turning left and right, stand apart and do not touch classmates. Touching or standing too close breaks the rule of this movement.

| Ball caught | Points for the team |
|---|---|
| Before it touches the ground | 100 |
| After one bounce | 75 |
| After two bounces | 50 |
| After three bounces | 25 |
When you use it
Reach for this when a question asks how points are counted in the 500 game or how a team wins it.
Watch out
Points depend on how many times the ball bounced before it was caught, not on how it was thrown. Add each team's points as the game goes, and the first team to reach 500 wins.

| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Identify the problem |
| 2 | Know the situation in which the problem arose |
| 3 | Gather ideas that solve the problem |
| 4 | Make a fair and responsible decision |
| 5 | Be reasoned and accountable for the decision made |
When you use it
Reach for this when a question asks how to make a responsible decision or which steps to follow when solving a problem with others.
Watch out
Do not skip step 2. A decision made before the situation is understood is not a responsible decision.

When you use it
Use this when a student is practising the basic gymnastic skill of rolling forward on a mat, with hands on the mat and the head kept off it.
Watch out
Students must line up and take their turns, and must not overlap on the mat. Take care at every roll so that no one is injured.

When you use it
Use this when a student practises hanging from a horizontal bar to build upper-body strength and improve body shape. Students bend the knees while hanging and lower themselves in their turn.
Watch out
Before each student takes a turn, check that the bar is secure and at the height of that student. A bar that is not safe or not matched to the student's height can cause injury.

When you use it
Use these steps when you are asked how the traditional game Bub is played, or when you need to set up and run a game of Bub.
Watch out
Pieces are placed two at a time, not one at a time, and the starter is chosen by lot before the first push. Write the order of play in sequence, because marks are lost when the steps are mixed up.

When you use it
Use this rule when you need to decide who loses a game of Bub, or when you are asked what must be true before a player is declared the loser.
Watch out
Having fewer than two pieces is not enough on its own: the player must also have no piece that can move. A player with fewer than two pieces who can still move has not lost yet.
