This term over the past 8 weeks, every Wednesday we do gymnastics in the school hall. We had two coaches one boy named Kane and one girl named Kylie. We even had a guest coach called Teddy. Room 8 learned 7 different skills and technique about gymnastics. My favourite part was everything.
These are the things that we learned:
Statics:Staying still or keeping your balance.
Landing:Landing safely in a motorbike.
Swing and spring: The playground is swing because it has monkey bars. A spring board is spring because you can jump on it.
Rotation: When you do a half turn and full turn.
Locomotion: Moving around in different ways.
Manipulation: Moving things with your body.
