Year 6 P.E. Gymnastics Topic!


 
 

Over the past half term, we have been working on some amazing paired gymnastic sequences, which we filmed over the last 2 weeks. We performed in pairs and were shown how to put up all the apparatus, which included: the benches, climbing frame, mats, the tables –not dinner tables - and the dinosaur (named after its shape). Each week we were timed when setting the equipment up, but this also had to be done safely so time was added for any dangerous behaviour. This would also happen if the equipment was unstable or insecure! Our fastest time was 3:45 for all of the equipment to be set out!!

Everybody had a performance check list and they had to do as much as they could to develop the best sequence possible. There were some things that only people on certain equipment could do – such as: roles, jumps and balances. However some features were achievable on all of the equipment, for example: mirroring and synchronisation.

All in all it was a great topic, despite some great challenges, but the sequences were amazing and thoroughly enjoyable. Hopefully you’ll be able to watch one of the sequences attached to this blog!!

Thanks, Karim in Year 6.
