Why this why now

Pupils will already have developed their balance, core stability, body tension and basic awareness of flight through gymnastics and dance will have also contributed to aesthetic awareness and routine creation. Pupils will experiment with and plan their own sequences of increasing complexity with simple link moves. Pupils will have the chance to further develop their reflective and analytical skills in upcoming units. The intention is also to expose pupils to an activity they could pursue beyond the curriculum.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Pupils know that gymnastics based activities require good body awareness, balance and control.
  • Pupils understand creativity and continued practice helps develop a high quality routine.
  • Pupils are able to support one another to analyse and improve their skills.
  • Pupils show a willingness to try a range of skills and a variety of combinations individually, whilst being supported and evaluated by others.
