Wednesday 14th June 

Todays session was over in the school field for Athletics. Our focus for today was jumping. The children were put into groups and were given time to explore jumping and what is required for a jump to be effective. The children came up with their own techniques before putting them into practice for the following types of jumps; 2 feet to 2 feet, 2 feet to 1 foot, 1 foot to 2 feet, 1 foot to the other and 1 foot to the same foot. We then looked at the different a run up made. We finished with a competition to see how far each group could jump as a team. From this we were able to see how far a professional athlete can jump on their own!
