- spatial concepts that relate to gymnastics
-
GENERAL/PERSONAL SPACE
-directions(personal space, front/back/side/up/down
-levels(distance from ground, or apparatus)
-pathways(on/around floor and apparatuses)
- effort concepts that relate to gymnastics
-
a. time (fast/slow)
b. flow (free/bound)
c. weight (degree of tension) (firm/fine) - matching
-
=children perform the exact same movements
a. facing the same way (simpler)
b. leading and following cannon (difficult, timing off) -
types of partner work
-
a. matching
b. mirroring
c. meeting and parting
d. leading and following
e. symmetry and asymmetry - curled or ball shape
-
=joints of the elbows, knees, hips, and spine are bent or curled
- relationship concepts relate to gymnastics
-
a. to people with a partner or in a group(complex, older children)
b. to apparatus(simple, younger children) - stretched shapes
-
a. long shape (hands and head are far away from feet to achieve height or distance)ex. "Y" head/handstand
b. wide shape (stretched sideways rather than up)
ex. "X" cartwheel - twisted shapes
-
=rotation of the trunk with the hips and shoulders facing different directions
-always asymmetrical, change in direction, and join movements together - what are body parts used for?
- -may lead or initiate an action, support or recieve weight
- body shapes (defn)
- =the lines or forms the body creates in motion and stillness, resulting from bending, curling, stretching, and twisting actions of the body
- leading and following
-
=like meeting and parting, can be with similiar or differing movements
-both individuals follow the same pathway - use of hands
- -b/c used so much, place whole palm on the floor as a base of support, with fingers spread apart
- meeting and parting
-
=copying or contrasting movements
*more challenging with use of an apparatus - use of the head
-
-important for use with:
a. direction of our vision
b. an aesthetic appeal due to the focus of the body shape
c. continuity of line in body shape
d. inititate a turning actions - mirroring
-
=children face eachother creating a mirror image
-or side by side, back to back
(more difficult) - symmetry adn asymmetry
-
(relates to body shape)
=assymetry is easier b/c it is creating a different shape - use of feet, ankles, and knees
-
-provide and absorb force
-fully extended in springing actions
-feet land: toes, balls of feet, then heels - canon
-
=a particular movement is repeatedly performed by two or more individuals following the same pathway
ex. one after another
