Lesson notes

Learning Objectives

Indicator: B3.1.2.1.3 - Jump continuously a self forward turning rope in a circle (skipping with rope).

By the end of the lesson, learners can:

Hold a skipping rope correctly with both hands, with the middle of the rope on the ground or slightly above, and swing it clockwise to turn the rope in a circle around the body.
Perform a continuous series of step-hops over a self-turned forward rope, starting with a double take-off (both feet together) and progressing to single step-hops.
Maintain a steady rhythm of jumping for at least 10 consecutive turns of the rope without stopping or tripping.
Demonstrate correct body posture and arm position while swinging the rope clockwise, keeping elbows close to the body and using wrist movements.
Apply corrective feedback from the teacher to improve the timing and coordination of the jump and rope swing.

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Take learners through 5 minutes jogging to warm the body up. Guide learners to pick their skipping ropes and find self-space. Hold the handle of the skipping rope side by side with the two hands with the middle of the rope on the ground or slightly above. Hop over it and swing the rope clockwise to turn round the body in circle as they continue series of step-hops starting with double take-off. Advance should progress to single step-hops and change clockwise rope movement to anti-clockwise. Allow learners to progress at their own pace. Give corrective feedback for skill improvement. End the lesson with cool down.
