Creativity in sport: my own gymnastic routine

Last week, PYP students created an original sequence/routine by combining all the gymnastic elements they had learned in class.

Each one of them made a show in front of their peers with travels, balances, jumping & landing, rolling, cartwheels/round-offs or handstand.

PE teacher recorded students’ performances in order to work with them later by watching the videos.

To strengthen their critical thinking,  they had to self-assess their own performances and also evaluate their peers.

This activity was called “the culminating experience”. Students achieved self-autonomy and got a consciousness of their athletic skills.
