Gymnastics

Room 16 have been doing gymnastics. We did it with Coach Stewart. We learnt how to do forward rolls and backward rolls. We also learnt how to do bear rolls and table turns. There were two methods for the backward roll- putting your hands behind your neck or rotating your arms from in front to behind and pushing your body over.

We learnt how to do a candle stand and a shoulder stand and we have learnt how to do a bridge. All of us got to walk on the beam. On the beam you can walk backwards, forwards or even sideways! You could also turn around when you jumped off for your landing.

This Wednesday will be the last time we do gym with Coach Stewart so we’re trying to learn as much as we can now. It was very fun and tiring but we kept on going until we couldn’t do it anymore!
