Bike Ability

On Monday the 27th of August P6 did their first bikability session.   In bikability we practised doing high fives while cycling around the school multicourt.  Each Monday we did bikability for 50 mins.

On the second week we practised our safe starts. To do a safe start you have to look over your right shoulder, stick out your right arm for 3 seconds to indicate,  look over your right shoulder again and then pull out.  We also practised our safe stops. To do this you have to look over your right shoulder flap your right arm like a bird 3 times, look over your left shoulder then pull in

On the third week we went out on to the road and practised our left hand turns.  To do a left hand turn you have to look over your right shoulder, stick out your left hand for 3 seconds (to indicate),  look over your left shoulder and then turn in.

On the fourth week we practised our U turns and our right hand turns. For a U turn you look over your right shoulder, look ahead, look over your right shoulder again and then do a big turn in a shape of a U. To do a right hand turn you have to look over your right shoulder, indecate with your right hand for 3 seconds then look right before turning.

On week five we  practised passing a parked car.  To do this you have to look over your right shoulder indecate with your right arm pull out into the middle of the road, pass the car then pull back in.

On the sixth week we did our assessment what we had to do was go over all of that stuff again and see how well we did. Our teachers were Jennifer and Jackie we enjoyed it and it was great fun
