Whistle - Teacher on the shore will blow their whistle 3 times in
long blows and wave both hands above their head (incase it is too
windy to hear whistle from the shore), students will paddle back
into shore as quickly as they can. Teacher supervising out on the

Paddle Tag Whilst on the water. The
teacher will name who the tagger is.
Students have to get away from the
tagger. The tagger has to tag the end or
the front of their peers kayak.
The Purpose for this activity allows the group to be stable, can talk
to the group at once and makes it easier to hold onto the kayaks in
a group.
This also creates teamwork and communication between one
another, and being conscious safety when coming in together a a
group.
Allow students to put all skills learnt throughout the lesson
together, to be more competent with Kayaking.
Students are able to confidently assist others who have capsized
to get into their own kayak. If feeling confident enough, students
can practice getting into their own kayak without anyones
assistance. This will aid them when they find themselves in a
situation where they have capsized when no one is around to
assist.
