|
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 |
