Stages / Time Activities and Presentation Ss’ Grouping Teaching aids
Classroom greeting
Walk nicely
Speak calmly without shouting
1. Warm up Place shoes together with toes pointing inwards
(10 mins) Stand in line peacefully
Handshake greeting at the door
Enter the room appropriately and sit in a circle on the mats
Improve lateral movement
To develop their sense of laterality, have them kneel on the floor, then instruct them to turn to lift their left
hand, their right leg etc.
2. Movement 10” Shadow mimic play
Have your child be your shadow and mimic all your actions as you walk about and perform simple actions
(i.e. marching in place, cross crawls, bringing elbows to the knee, raising arms above the head etc).

3. Games 10” Work on balance

Encourage your child to balance on one leg, and then the other for as long as possible. Use balance beams
or “walk the line” with a piece of painters tape on the floor. Nature playscapes are also great for this, they
usually have large logs for balancing on.
Walk through the jungle.
The adult leader talks the children through the activities appealing to their imagination
and presenting them with solutions. Activities are limited only by the imagination
of the instructor and the children. Examples:
• How can we help each other jump over the brook? Could be a variety of widths.
• Path is blocked – too high to get over – find a way to get past? Crawl under.
• Can you find a way to get down a very steep hill without falling? Roll.
• Tiptoe through some shallow water.
• Shuffle between 2 trees that are close together (side-step then feet together).
• Show me ways to get us over this big log. Jump, climb over.
• How will we get away from the bear?
• Hurt our foot, now what are we going to do? Hop on 1 foot.
• Find a way to get across the river? Perhaps balance on a log across.

Date of teaching:
• Pretend we are monkeys (run on hands, while springing on feet).
• Pretend we are frogs jumping from lily pad to lily pad (from squat knees apart-hands
between knees) jump forward to squat.
Speed
Children are told they are cars and asked to “start their engines”.
Drive your cars around without bumping into another car – if you can, you will be given
your “driver’s license”. Instructor can suggest various movements if children are only
going forward at different speeds. Cars can:
• Be driven backwards • Make wide turns
• Go faster downhill • Make short turns
• Go slower uphill • Zig zag to avoid other cars
• Come to stop signs • Back into garages
• Go over bumpy roads • Slow down for yellow lights

Students discuss in partnerships

Reflection
Gymnastics is one of three foundational sports along with swimming and athletics.
This means that movements learned in gymnastics will be repeated across various other sports.
