More About This Unit
What do our Year 4 Gymnastics lesson plans cover?
In Lower Key Stage 2 Gymnastics, children should learn, develop, and combine the key elements required to perform gymnastic sequences, with sequences becoming longer and more effective.
Our Year 4 Gymnastics lesson plans improve the accuracy and consistency of linking shapes, balances and traveling. Children are encouraged to be creative and experiment with changes in dynamics when working in pairs and groups.
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, flexibility, strength, technique, and control. These motor competence components are valuable, 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.
