P6 have been doing gymnastics in PE.  So far we have had 2 weeks on mat skills and 1 week on all the apparatus.  Our focus is on flexibility and creativity.

We have learnt that we will perform skills easier and with better technique, the more  flexible we are.  Some examples are stepping into a handstand or cartwheel, in our shapes tuck, pick, star, straddle and straight and on the bar when taking our feet up to or through our hands.

Creativity – When using the equipment we try to use a variety of ways to travel across, on, along, over and off.  We are also looking for flair, originality and imagination .

Here are some pictures from the block so far.
