Shapes in the air!

In Gymnastics, Year 3 have been learning about body shapes. They began by learning how to make static shapes including a star, pike, straddle and tuck. This week, they moved onto shapes in the air. Children were given the opportunity to practise jumps and turns, taking off from the bench and landing on the mat. They gave each other feedback on what went well and how to improve. Staying balanced when landing was quite tricky! They enjoyed using the apparatus and are looking forward to combining these shapes into a sequence of movements and performing for their peers.
