Year 5 Gymnastics – Bridges

This Half-Term Year 5 have been learning about Bridges in Gymnastics. We have explored ways of making a range of different bridge shapes, by ourselves and working collaboratively. We have discovered that we can make our bridge shapes more interesting by performing them on different body parts, on different levels, and by traveling in them.

We have also been experimenting with ways that we can travel under our friends bridge shapes without making any contact. We found various ways of achieving this including rolling, sliding, and crab walking.

Have a look at some of the bridge shapes that we created…
