Suggested Instructional Strategies Students continue to develop locomotor and non-locomotor skills in general and personal space while working through gymnastic themes, such as balance, travel, flight, takeoff and land, and weight transfer.
Students perform individual and partner sequences on the floor, and on small or large apparatus .
Provide a movement sequence, and add movements from other themes. Have students practise takeoff, flight, and landing from benches, boxes, or a beat board. Have students practise moving from bench to mat. Repeat, adding a wide shape. Sequence a variety of movements from the different themes that have been covered.
