Session1

Totravel and jump fluently and hold balanced positions demonstratinga variety of stretched and curled shapes.

Toreceive and transfer body weight safely in different situations andcreate a sequence with a partner.

Toidentify how the overall performance of a sequence can beimproved.

Toadapt and transfer skills safely onto more complex apparatus atevery stage of learning.

Warm up:

* Travel around the room onballs of feet following a curving pathway. Signal the children tomake themselves as small as possible.

* Repeat activity, this time,explain to children that when they rise they must roll over beforecoming to their feet.

Floorwork:

* Travel over the floor withbodies in a curled up position. Signal the children to changetheir mode of travel.

* Ask children to make acurled up shape taking their weight on their back. Travel(sliding, shuffling, rolling).

* Repeat asking the childrento try travelling backwards, forwards or sideways

* Children jump as high asthey can from two feet.

* Children jump from two feetand try to make a curled shape whilst in the air.

* Children to run, jump toshow a tucked position in the air, land and sink carefully into acurled position to continue moving.

*Explore all the apparatus, moving in different way between,underneath, on, off or over, always being aware ofothers.

*Stand on a low part of the apparatus and make sure you have a clearspace in front of you. Jump from the apparatus showing a stretchedshape in the air, land on two feet, sink down carefully and rollaway.

*Repeat task using a tucked jump.

*Travel in/out, over, under, on, off showing curled and stretchedmovements and when a space is clear, jump from the apparatus into aroll.

Thechildren will:

Travel showing a range of stretched and curledshapes and join together two more contrasting actions.

Demonstrate stretched and curled balance ondifferent body parts showing and understanding of high, medium andlow positions.

Session2

Totravel and jump fluently and hold balanced positions demonstratinga variety of stretched and curled shapes.

Toreceive and transfer body weight safely in different situations andcreate a sequence with a partner.

Toidentify how the overall performance of a sequence can beimproved.

Toadapt and transfer skills safely onto more complex apparatus atevery stage of learning.

Warm up:

* Run in and out of each other and, whenyou see a clear space ahead, jump into it, land lightly and run onagain.

* Run, leap from one foot onto anothershowing a stretched body shape in the air, land and continue. Makethe shape in the air stretched and long from front to back.

Floorwork:

* Standing or lying on the floor, stretchfrom tips of fingers to tips of toes. What shape have you made(star or pin)? Can you move fully stretched in either of theseshapes?

* Stretch body fully with four partstouching the floor.

* Stretch the body in different directionswith 3 parts in contact with floor.

* Repeat with 2 parts in contact withfloor.

* Taking weight on hands, fingers pointingforwards, strong straight arms, shoulder width apart, head back,kick one leg up behind you and try to get it higher than yourhead.

* Run and jump to show a stretched shapein the air, land and sink down into a roll showing a stretchedshape and continue moving.

Apparatus:

*Explore different ways of stretching, arching and curling, whenmoving between the apparatus under, over, along or throughit.

*Travel over, around and along the apparatus, with feet higher thanhead.

*Climb or spring onto the apparatus using hands and feet slide offthe apparatus fully stretched.

*Climb or spring onto the apparatus and jump of showing a stretchedshape in the air, land and roll away.

Thechildren will:

Travel showing a range of stretched and curledshapes and join together two more contrasting actions.

Demonstrate stretched and curled balance ondifferent body parts showing and understanding of high, medium andlow positions.

Session3

Totravel and jump fluently and hold balanced positions demonstratinga variety of stretched and curled shapes.

Toreceive and transfer body weight safely in different situations andcreate a sequence with a partner.

Toidentify how the overall performance of a sequence can beimproved.

Toadapt and transfer skills safely onto more complex apparatus atevery stage of learning.

Warm up:

* Run STOP, very still with strong bodytension, one foot in front of other.

* Run STOP in a different still,stretched or arched shape.

* Run STOP in a still, curledshape.

Floorwork:

* Move into a curled shape, hold it for amoment, then move into a stretched or arched shape and hold it.Can you travel along the floor in this way?

* Run, jump into a space, land and sinkdown to roll in a curved position.

* Can you travel along the floorsometimes stretching/arching, sometimes curling and sometimesrunning, jumping and rolling?

* Working with a partner. A makes acurled shape and B copies it. Repeat swapping roles.

* Join two movements together, onestretch or arch and one curl. Discuss and work out your favouritemoves then both perform the same movements at the same time.

Apparatus:

*Explore the apparatus by travelling in different ways between,over, under, along and through it.

*Approach the apparatus quickly using small curled up movements andleave it moving slowly and using stretched movements.

*Find a curled up or stretched out way of getting onto theapparatus, show a partner and copy each othersmovements.

*Choose your favourite two movements and perform them side by sidewith your partner.

Thechildren will:

Travel showing a range of stretched and curledshapes and join together two more contrasting actions.

Demonstrate stretched and curled balance ondifferent body parts showing and understanding of high, medium andlow positions.

Identify and perform matching shapes with apartner, facing each other, one behind the other, side by side, orpassing over a partner.

Toreceive and transfer body weight safely in different situations andcreate a sequence with a partner.

Toidentify how the overall performance of a sequence can beimproved.

Toadapt and transfer skills safely onto more complex apparatus atevery stage of learning.

Warmup:
* Run, jump into a space and move on.
* Run, jump into a space and sink down and roll to continue.
* Run and show different shaped jumps.

Floorwork:
* Travel on the floor a short distance and move through two orthree stretched and curled positions.
* Repeat and change direction each time the type of movementchanges.
* With a partner, perform two moves learnt previously.
* In pairs, one leading and one following, move over the floorusing stretched and curled movements with changes of speed anddirection.
* Repeat with children changing roles.

Apparatus:

* Travel over, under, through alongapparatus and floor exploring curled, stretched and archedmovements and shapes.

* Travel between, over, under, along,through apparatus showing curled and stretched shapes, but leavethe apparatus with a stretched jump and curled roll on the floor totravel away.

* Follow-my-leader with a partner. Oneleads over, under, along, through apparatus and floor, and partnerfollows as precisely as possible.

Toadapt and transfer skills safely onto more complex apparatus atevery stage of learning.

Warm-up:

* Trot around the hall on balls of feetand jump up into the air concentrating on quiet landings.
* Constantly change speeds by walking, trotting and running aboutthe room avoiding contact by moving backwards, forwards andsideways.

Floorwork:

* Travel around the room in a smallcurled up position.

* Travel on feet or hands and feet in astretched out position.
* Side by side with a partner, travel along the floor curled orarched and then run and jump into the air curled up.

* Repeat but this time travel stretchedout and jump up into the air in a stretched up position.

* One partner make a stretched out shapeflat on the floor and the other one travels over making the samestretched out shape in the air.

* One partner makes a curled up archedshape on the floor and the other one travels over in the samecurled up or arched shape.

Apparatus:

*Explore the apparatus over, under, along, through etc.
* Travel over, under, along, through apparatus and floor showingas many varied stretched and curled positions and movements aspossible.
* With a partner Follow-my-leader slowly travelling in curledand stretched positions.
* Experiment with one partner curled up or stretched out on theapparatus, close to it, and the other partner travelling over thesame shape.

Thechildren will:

Travel showing a range of stretched and curledshapes and join together two more contrasting actions.

Demonstrate stretched and curled balance ondifferent body parts showing and understanding of high, medium andlow positions.
