Have you heard of a 'tuck roll' or a 'pencil roll'?

We have been learning about certain types of actions and skills for our gymnastics. We can see our selves progressing over the last 4 weeks week. Our skills taught are Rolling, Flight, Balance and Travel. We have been practising how to take turns and rotate around the stations. We love the names of the moves that we learnt. They are called an 'elephant roll', 'star jump', 'cat leap', 'stag leap'. We practised how to do a 1/4 and a 1/2 turn on the beam and how to balance. This is what we had to say about our gymnastics.....
