Locomotion: can you link a set of balances together to create a short sequence?

Remote learning: locomotion

Unit Summary

The unit will increase pupils' motor competence when running and jumping. Pupils will show self-belief as they explore different ways of moving and balancing, and linking these together.

Lesson Summary

You will learn to link a range of balances together with flow to create a short sequence.

Key Notes

  • Move: linking balances together with flow needs control and accuracy.
  • Think: focussing throughout the sequence leads to a quality performance.
  • Feel: trying hard to make our sequences flow shows self-belief.
  • Connect: sharing our ideas with others needs respect and empathy.

Vocabulary To Learn

  • sequence: a set of movements or actions performed in a specific order
  • flow: moving smoothly from one action or movement to the next
  • empathy: understanding and sharing the feelings of others

Common Mistakes To Avoid

  • A sequence is one balance performed after another.
