1. Warm up Do warm up learnt from previous lessons
(5 mins) Jumping rope is also an excellent motor skill-building activity. Since kids have to pick up both their feet
simultaneously while jumping rope, it builds bilateral motor coordination. Jumping rope for beginners also
takes a lot of concentration, which helps kids hone their ability to focus.
To teach children how to skip rope, start by giving them the rope to hold by the handles, one in each hand.
Next, they can hold the rope out in front of their body and step over it.
Once they get that part down, they can start to swing the jump rope over their head slowly and let it hit the
floor. Finally, they can start jumping over the rope each time it circles around.
2.
Teach children to wait until the rope hits the floor before they jump. Some do so while it's in the air, which
( 10 mins)
can cause them to lose their balance and possibly trip. If children have any trouble skipping over the rope,
they can keep stepping over it until they are ready to jump.

3. French skipping
Two children stand inside the loop so they are stretching it relatively taut around their ankles. A third
( 10 mins) person performs a series of hops and jumps, chanting appropriate rhymes. When finished, the height of the
elastic is raised to knees, then thighs, then waist.
Start with your left foot inside the elastic loop and right foot just outside. Jump over to the other side so the
right foot is inside the loop and the left foot is outside.
Here is a rhyme you can try:
‘Chocolate cake, when you bake,
How many minutes will you take?
One, two, three, four.’
On ONE: jump up and land with your left foot outside the elastic loop and right foot inside.
On TWO: jump up and land with both feet together inside the elastic loop.
On THREE: jump up and land with both feet outside the elastic loop.

On FOUR: jump up and land sideways to the elastic, with your left foot on top of the back of the elastic and
your right foot ahead (in front) of the elastic.

If the current player fails to execute the correct jump then their turn is over and play passes to one of the
people inside the circle of elastic, who then tries to outdo the previous player.

Helicopter
To play this game, you need a group of kids, a long rope, and sidewalk chalk. Make a large circle on the
ground (its diameter should be twice the length of your rope) and mark a spot for each player around the
end of the circle.
One player stands in the middle while the rest stay in their spots around the edges. This central player holds
the rope up high and swings it in a circle while saying: "Helicopter, helicopter over my head, I choose a color
and the color is ... "
Once she names a color, she rotates the rope along the ground. When the other players hear the color
name, anyone who is wearing that color steps forward and tries to jump over the rope. If anyone steps on
the rope, the central player starts over.
Jump the River
This game is similar to "jump the mountain", but instead of trying to jump high, the goal is to jump further and further
4. distances. Start with two long double dutch jump ropes, with a holder at each end keeping the ropes at ground level and
about 6" apart (the "river"). Children line up in front of the rope and jump over one at a time. Slowly widen the distance
( 10 mins)
between the ropes to make the jump more challenging.
To help children who cannot jump as far, make one end of the "river" skinnier by holding the rope handles on that side
closer together. Have more advanced jumpers jump on the wide end.
Banana Split
This jump rope game doesn't actually involve jumping—but players do have to pay attention to the timing
of the swinging rope. You need a long rope and two people to turn it.
The remaining players form a single-file line so that the first person in line is facing the rope. The turners
swing the rope forward toward the line, then away.
As they do so, the first player must run under the rope and back without touching the rope or letting it
touch him. After one pass, the second person in line joins in and both players run under the rope.
Then three runners go together, and so on. If anyone touches the rope or doesn't make it back and forth in
time, start again with one player running.
4. Wrap-up (5’) The key to teaching someone to skip is all in the buildup. We are basically taking the skip, slowing it down
until technique is mastered, then adding intensity until your kid skips.
