Tumbling - 2018

Tumbling Routines

Throughout my Tumbling unit the students learn a variety of individual and group skills that range from beginner to advanced, and the students are allowed to move at their own pace. Some students will spend a whole day learning 1 or 2 new moves, whereas others may move through five or six. However, I always end the unit the same way with my 5th and 6th graders, and that is with a Tumbling Routine project. For this project the students can either perform individually or can perform in a group of 2-3 (depending on the size of the class). For the requirements they must perform 8 different skills if they go solo, or 3 group moves and 4 individual moves if they choose to perform as a group. This year I had my students record and provide feedback on each others routines. The video below was the students' favorite routine from my 5th grade class.
