Gymnastics - Bridges
Teaching staff were amazed by the level of excellence on show as the children in Hedgehog Class began their new gymnastics units - bridges. Children explored ways they could use their bodies to create bridges at different levels before working with a partner to perform paired bridge balances. They were challenged to make their balances interesting by introducing more than one level and a variety of body parts.
It was a first as the teaching team ran out of success bibs to distribute! Quite simply blown away by the levels of physical (moving), social (working as a team), cognitive (thinking) and emotional (feeling) successes on display this afternoon. We can't wait to get the apparatus out next week as we look to re-create our bridge balances using apparatus.
