Barn Owl Class Gymnastics

This term, Barn Owl Class have been enjoying some Gymnastics in PE. 

We have been learning some basic gym moves like pike sit, straddle fold and V sit. We have also been really focussing on 3 things when we use the apparatus...

1. balancing - how many different ways can we balance? can we hold the balance for 3 seconds?

2. Travelling - how many different ways can we travel across the apparatus? 

3.  jumping - Can we jump and land with 'soft' knees and do a 'finale' finish?

The children have mastered lots of different skills and have found SO many ways to travel and balance! forwards, backwards, sideways, on backs and fronts and even upside down!

They have been a joy to teach in PE - being wonderfully keen and enthusiastic to develop their skills and showcase their moves! Well done Barn Owls!
