This afternoon, Year 2 had a very energetic and challenging skipping workshop led by Jodi from Skipping School. We covered lots of skipping skills that we’ll be practising in PE in the lead up to a Year 2 competition in March with other schools.
We learnt click jump, double bounce, speed bounce, hop and swap, side swing, partner skipping face to face and with the long rope we tried run jump out and keep the pot boiling.
Some tips that Jodi shared with us were:
- hold the rope like a smiley face
- have the smiley face behind your legs
- keep your hands wide at the side
- when you hear the click of the rope on the floor you need to jump
We look forward to seeing lots of progress over the coming weeks.
