Year 5 - Physical education
Gymnastics: flight
This unit will enable pupils to explore and perform a variety of jumps, knowing how to take off and land safely. Pupils will create sequences in groups, combining a variety of jumps and turns on apparatus with changes in level, direction, canon,unison and flow.
You will learn to create a sequence that combines a variety of jumps performed on apparatus with changes in level, direction, canon and unison, as well as group balances, and reflect on ways to improve.
Move: high quality performances require consistency in flow, extension, control and how still the balances are held. Think: thinking about the quality of the sequence and how to make improvements where necessary requires reflection.
to look at something carefully and decide how good it is.
Mistake: Pupils may not contribute to reflections as a group as they may lack confidence to speak up in front of others. Pupils may lose flow in their sequence when they add balances. Correction: Encourage every pupil to contribute in group reflection tasks and consider ways in which everyone can give feedback. Pupils should think carefully about how they will get into and out of their balances to maintain flow throughout the sequence.
