GAME SENSE 
APPROACH! 
WHAT, HOW AND WHY ?
WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH? 
• The Game Sense approach is a strategy that develops the in-depth 
meaning of sport and physical activity as it concentrates on developing 
the skill of thinking through problem solving utilising physical activity 
(Pill, 2014,p.1). 
• The game sense approach is completely student centred, which allows 
students to develop their problem solving, thinking and understanding 
skills while still being fully involved in the game. 
• The game sense approach is a variation of Bunker and Thorpe’s 
Teaching Games for Understanding model (Pill, 2014,p.1).
WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH ? 
• Game sense approach tends to use small sided, altered games 
that integrate important strategic structures, but are adapted to 
fit all different age, size, skill, and motivation (curry, 2011, p.1). 
• The game sense approach groups team sports into four key areas: 
- invasion games e.g. soccer, ultimate frisbee, netball 
- target games e.g. golf, archery, bowls 
- net and wall games e.g. volleyball, tennis, 
badminton 
- striking and fielding games e.g. cricket, softball 
(curriculum support, N.D, p. 7)
WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH? 
• The game sense approach creates a great learning experience for 
students in NSW schools. 
• Research has proven that the ‘game sense’ approach has greatly 
improved students cognitive learning (Brookes, N.D, p. 3). 
• The game sense approach is utilised by firstly playing a modified 
game, followed by helping the players figure out what they need to 
do in order to play the game properly, then teaching the skills of 
the game and finally practicing the particular skill in another 
game.
WHY WE USE ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH IN 
SCHOOLS? 
• The ‘Game Sense’ approach has seen to be a lot more successful in 
teaching students new skills and games than the traditional 
approach. 
• The ‘Game Sense’ approach has many strengths as it teaches 
students what to do through a modified game and letting them 
experience it for themselves, rather than by telling them. 
• The game sense approach challenges students to think about what 
they are doing and why they need to do it, allowing them to develop 
skills easier. 
• This approach is more engaging and fun for the students because 
instead of learning the skill separately, it is intergraded into a 
modified game which allows for students to be more involved and 
hands on. 
• The coach or teacher acts more as a facilitator as it is not technique 
based, which allows the game to go on when possible, making it more 
fun for the students.
HOW IT LINKS WITH THE SYLLABUS ? 
• PE teachers using the Game Sense approach will able to meet the 
requirements of the NSW Quality Teaching Framework and will also 
be able to provide high quality learning experiences for all students. 
• In the PDHPE syllabus under ‘Games and sport’ for stage 2, in 
refers to how well a student ‘participates and uses equipment in a 
variety of games and modified sports’. This learning outcome can be 
met through the new ‘Game Sense’ approach as it allows students 
to engage in modified games, and allows them to develop all 
necessary skills. 
• Also in the PDHPE syllabus one of the learning outcomes for stage 
2, in ‘Moving’ is how well a student ‘displays a focus on quality of 
movement and applying movement skills to a variety of familiar and 
new situations. This is also met through ‘Game Sense’ approach as 
the PE teacher modifies certain games so that the students can 
develop sporting skills and tactics.
HOW IT IS IMPLEMENTED IN LESSONS? 
• The ‘Game Sense’ approach is very student centred as it encourages them 
to develop their own skills and understand, while still being heavily 
involved in the game. 
• To implement this learning approach in the class room, the teacher much 
act more as a onlooker who is just observing instead of an instructor who 
is constantly giving feedback, this will also boast a child’s self-esteem and 
involvement. 
• The PE lessons will become more student centred, focusing meeting all the 
required syllabus points, and ensure the students are developing decision 
making, interacting and communication skills. 
• The games will be formed around minimal rules so that the game can 
continue and have too many stops. 
• Students will work towards a common goal.

Game sense approach!

  • 1. GAME SENSE APPROACH! WHAT, HOW AND WHY ?
  • 2. WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH? • The Game Sense approach is a strategy that develops the in-depth meaning of sport and physical activity as it concentrates on developing the skill of thinking through problem solving utilising physical activity (Pill, 2014,p.1). • The game sense approach is completely student centred, which allows students to develop their problem solving, thinking and understanding skills while still being fully involved in the game. • The game sense approach is a variation of Bunker and Thorpe’s Teaching Games for Understanding model (Pill, 2014,p.1).
  • 3. WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH ? • Game sense approach tends to use small sided, altered games that integrate important strategic structures, but are adapted to fit all different age, size, skill, and motivation (curry, 2011, p.1). • The game sense approach groups team sports into four key areas: - invasion games e.g. soccer, ultimate frisbee, netball - target games e.g. golf, archery, bowls - net and wall games e.g. volleyball, tennis, badminton - striking and fielding games e.g. cricket, softball (curriculum support, N.D, p. 7)
  • 4. WHAT IS ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH? • The game sense approach creates a great learning experience for students in NSW schools. • Research has proven that the ‘game sense’ approach has greatly improved students cognitive learning (Brookes, N.D, p. 3). • The game sense approach is utilised by firstly playing a modified game, followed by helping the players figure out what they need to do in order to play the game properly, then teaching the skills of the game and finally practicing the particular skill in another game.
  • 5. WHY WE USE ‘GAME SENSE’ APPROACH IN SCHOOLS? • The ‘Game Sense’ approach has seen to be a lot more successful in teaching students new skills and games than the traditional approach. • The ‘Game Sense’ approach has many strengths as it teaches students what to do through a modified game and letting them experience it for themselves, rather than by telling them. • The game sense approach challenges students to think about what they are doing and why they need to do it, allowing them to develop skills easier. • This approach is more engaging and fun for the students because instead of learning the skill separately, it is intergraded into a modified game which allows for students to be more involved and hands on. • The coach or teacher acts more as a facilitator as it is not technique based, which allows the game to go on when possible, making it more fun for the students.
  • 6. HOW IT LINKS WITH THE SYLLABUS ? • PE teachers using the Game Sense approach will able to meet the requirements of the NSW Quality Teaching Framework and will also be able to provide high quality learning experiences for all students. • In the PDHPE syllabus under ‘Games and sport’ for stage 2, in refers to how well a student ‘participates and uses equipment in a variety of games and modified sports’. This learning outcome can be met through the new ‘Game Sense’ approach as it allows students to engage in modified games, and allows them to develop all necessary skills. • Also in the PDHPE syllabus one of the learning outcomes for stage 2, in ‘Moving’ is how well a student ‘displays a focus on quality of movement and applying movement skills to a variety of familiar and new situations. This is also met through ‘Game Sense’ approach as the PE teacher modifies certain games so that the students can develop sporting skills and tactics.
  • 7. HOW IT IS IMPLEMENTED IN LESSONS? • The ‘Game Sense’ approach is very student centred as it encourages them to develop their own skills and understand, while still being heavily involved in the game. • To implement this learning approach in the class room, the teacher much act more as a onlooker who is just observing instead of an instructor who is constantly giving feedback, this will also boast a child’s self-esteem and involvement. • The PE lessons will become more student centred, focusing meeting all the required syllabus points, and ensure the students are developing decision making, interacting and communication skills. • The games will be formed around minimal rules so that the game can continue and have too many stops. • Students will work towards a common goal.
