More About This Unit
What do our Year 1 Gymnastics lesson plans cover?
In Gymnastics KS 1, children should learn and develop fundamental movement skills. These skills increase a child’s confidence and competence and include travelling, balancing, rolling, and jumping.
Our Year 1 Gymnastics lesson plans help children explore and form simple sequences of different actions, moving safely, changing direction and speed.
Why are Gymnastics lessons important for primary-age children?
Gymnastics lessons are an essential element to primary school PE. They can offer endless opportunities, as well as fulfilling National Curriculum requirements of developing balance, agility and coordination. These fundamental movement skills are crucial for a child’s motor development, and transferable, in all other sports, as well as helping promote children to lead healthy, active lifestyles.
Primary School Gymnastics is also great for building confidence, developing social skills and allowing children to recognise and celebrate their successes.
