This unit develops Year 5 students' ability to create sophisticated partner sequences using the 'under and over' theme, combining technical control with collaborative choreography. Students progress from fundamental partner rolling and shape-making to creating dynamic sequences where they travel over, under and around each other with precision and flow. The unit emphasises trust, communication and mutual support whilst advancing individual gymnastics skills to a higher level of technical excellence.
