Lesson 7, 8
Travelling and weight-bearing: creating
sequences (3)
Jog … stretch
Practise running a few steps, jumping high

Development of lesson
• floorwork
Show three balances, two with wide shapes
and one with a narrow shape, and link them
together to form a sequence.
Practise taking weight on two hands, kicking
one or two feet into the air and bringing
them down on a different spot.
Create a sequence containing two rolls and
two balances showing wide and narrow
shapes.
Pair work: one partner performs the
sequence and the other follows.
Pairs then perform the sequence together.
• apparatus work
Create a sequence involving travelling onto
the apparatus, performing a balance on it,
moving off it and travelling to form another
balance using the apparatus as support.
Pair work: create a sequence to include one
balance on the floor and one matching
balance on the apparatus, lead into and out
of the balances with a variety of travelling
activities.
Concluding activity
Stretch gently. Jog, walk and stop.
Stretch gently. Walk and relax.
Teaching points
Emphasise wide and narrow shapes, smooth
linkages.
Emphasise timing of sequence performed by
pair together, ensure a clear understanding of
a matching balance.
Assessment: Among the techniques which may be used are
• teacher observation: ability to work with a partner, poise, balance, control
• curriculum profile: use teacher observation to complete curriculum profile.
Follow-up work: Develop specific skills of headstand and handstand where appropriate,
develop different themes, e.g. rotation, mirroring.
