In Spring 1, the children did gymnastics with our PE coach. They learnt how to balance in various ways – on one foot and involving equipment like benches, for instance. They also used a range of equipment to learn how to climb on and jump off. The children had to listen to and learn safety rules for when using the equipment. Some children had to overcome some nerves when it came to jumping off the bigger equipment. It was amazing to see how the more confident or experienced children really helped to encourage and support their peers. We had hand holding and positive words demonstrating amazing teamwork and friendship skills. All the physical skills learnt in this unit will help to develop their co-ordination and spatial awareness.
