Rolling Skills and Beanie Babies

This week's lesson focuses on rolling skills: log rolls, forward rolls, and backward rolls. All skills are done on the wedge to making rolling easier. Gymnasts will climb up the wall to practice their handstands. Please ask your child to show you how they can climb the wall! Our coordination activity is the Beanie Babies.

Tuesday's Class

The gymnasts in Tuesday's class are doing a wonderful job in class! Today we worked on 7 different stations which included handstands against the wall, wall walking, a cartwheel station, rolling skills on the wedge, the balance beam, jumps for strength and endurance, and the rock climbing wall. Each station is pictured on this blog.

Children worked in small groups and did a nice job of cooperating.

Your child is becoming strong, flexible and determined!
