Today, Year 4 were lucky enough to receive a visit from Leeds Skipping School who ran a brilliant session. This is I’m preparation for our attendance at the Leeds Skipping Festival in the spring. We had such a fun morning!
The skips we learnt were…
- double bounce
- single bounce
- side straddle
- side swing
- cross over
- pretzel
We learnt and practised all of the skips that we’ll be performing in the festival. I was so impressed with the amazing skipping skills Year 4 could already demonstrate and we can’t wait to keep practising even more!
Help at home: if you have a skipping rope, ask your children to show you the six skips we learnt today.
