P5 Gymnastics

Primary 5 have enjoyed progressing their ‘mirror, match and in canon’ movements onto the apparatus. They worked with a partner on different pieces of equipment to show a variety of balances and skills. The wall bars were certainly popular!! Well done children 🙂

This morning P5 started a new gymnastics block in P.E. They worked with a partner to match and mirror each other’s actions and movements. They then worked in small groups to perform movements in canon ~ one at a time. Next week they will progress to using these 3 techniques on the apparatus. Great work P5!
