Big Question:

How can we generate maximum elevation and control during flight phases in gymnastics?

Key Objectives:

• • Develop the ability to take off from one foot and two feet, gaining elevation from powerful run-ups and dynamic take-offs
• • Link skills to perform actions and sequences of movement with increasing complexity

Big Question:

How can we control our body position and create aesthetic shapes while airborne?

Key Objectives:

• • Develop the ability to take off from one foot and two feet, creating controlled shapes whilst in flight
• • Evaluate peer performance using accurate technical gymnastics vocabulary

Big Question:

How can we combine different jumping and springing techniques to create fluid, controlled sequences that demonstrate mastery of flight?

Key Objectives:

• • Link multiple gymnastics skills to perform cohesive actions and sequences of movement
• • Execute landings with soft knees and strong symmetrical positions consistently

Big Question:

How can working with a partner enhance your flight and apparatus skills in gymnastics?

Key Objectives:

• • To use apparatus to mount and dismount in imaginative and controlled ways
• • To create partner sequences involving elements of flight with synchronisation

Big Question:

How can we use technical language to help others perfect their gymnastics performance?

Key Objectives:

• • Evaluate peer performances using correct gymnastics technical terminology
• • Create smooth, graceful transitions between jumps using varied pathways

Big Question:

How can we create group gymnastics sequences that combine different levels of flight with precise timing and control?

Key Objectives:

• • Link gymnastic skills to perform coordinated actions and sequences of movement
• • Explore and demonstrate different levels in sequences including flight and ground-based travelling
