As part of our PE unit for this half term, The children in Nursery have been focusing on gymnastics.
We have been learning about being a gymnast and the different kinds of movements they complete and practice to create a routine. We have learnt different styles of jumping such as;
- Tuck Jumps
- Straight Jumps
- Bunny Hops
- Frog Jumps
- Star Jump
We have learnt different styles of rolling such as;
- Pencil Roll
- Teddy Bear Roll
- Egg Roll
- Dish Roll
- Rock on Back
We have also learnt how to hold a balance on one leg for 3 seconds.
To end our unit of work we have put together all of our learning to create a simple routine which consisted of travelling along a bench and jumping from a height and landing on two feet, into a roll of choice and finishing with a balance which was held for 3 seconds. Have a look at some examples of our amazing routine work!
