Year 1 Gymnastics – Rocking and Rolling

Year 1 have been exploring rocking and rolling in their Gymnastics lessons. Children have become confident performing a range of different rolls safely and can are able to identify different body parts that they can rock on.

In todays lesson, children moved around four activity stations to further investigate our topic. At these stations…

1. We performed forwards rolls on the bench to help us stay in a straight line
2. We used hoops to encourage us to push from our feet into our forward roll
3. We looked for places and ways that we could rock on climbing frame
4. We paired up and helped our partners to rock up to a standing position

Have a look at us in action…
