Gymnastics

K-6 classes are involved in a gymnastic unit at the moment.  We began the unit January 9th and it will end on February 7th.  The students are very excited to be moving on the various pieces of equipment that, with the help of the Physed Leadership students we have out in the gym. We have benches, mats, crash mats, bars, trestles, balance beams,  and slides  in stations that the children rotate through in a gym class.  We explore movement in a variety of ways making shapes, travelling different ways, holding balances, changing directions..........  The children's comments are "This is fun!"  "Look what I can do!"  "Watch me!"  "I never knew I could do this hard movement!"
