Wow that is such a great program! Jump rope is so much fun for kids and it really does take alot of energy and hard work. I think it's wonderful what they are doing. Thanks for sharing!
I agree this is a great program. Shay and I are going to be teaching our class about jump roping and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or suggests on some fun ways to introduce jump roping.
What grade level?
I start my k-2 kids with long rope.It's easier teaching the jumping rhythm without worrying about the arms.
For older kids I show them some video clips I have of these AMAZING kids doing AMAZING rope tricks. Part of the video is also instructional and shows kids how to do some of the jumps like the skier, the bell, etc.
They get pretty psyched about it.
