Skip Hop

Skip Hop
By Lara Mullally
On the 16th of November a man came in to teach us skipping.  He took class by class to go out and skip. When it was our turn we went into the hall.  First we did a warm up.  We did forwards and backwards skipping for the warm up and some cool tricks, then we started to do some hard stuff.
 We did thing where you had to skip in the figure of eight.  It worked like this, you had to run in jump once then run around the person holding the person holding one side of the rope and then run in and jump again.  Then we had to do it with the whole class, the man said that whoever, touched the rope was ‘out’.  In the end only Hannah, Maeve, Patrick, Matthew and Seth were left ‘in’.  We did it eight times then we had to go back to class.
Later on, we went back with the whole school. The man called up the best people to come up and show their skills. After a while he called up Hannah, Maeve, Patrick, Matthew and Seth to do the figure of eight.  We got a score of 16 times.  We went back to our classrooms afterwards.
Our class went outside to do more skipping at 2 o’clock.  This time we just practiced doing the figure of eight, then the class was over.  We said ‘Goodbye’ and went back inside.  It was time to go home.

On Friday the 16th of November Lee came into do skipping with our school.  Everyone did 45 minutes with their class.  Then after lunch we had a skipping show and a few people from each class did some skipping tricks.  At the end of the day 5th and 6th class were very lucky to get half an hour extra time before Lee left.  We had so much fun and I wish I could do it again.

A guy called Lee came to school and he showed SOOO many cool skipping tricks and routines, some of them where double dutch, 360 turn , figure of eight  and sooo much more. He said that he worked with boxers, gymnasts, football players etc. . We had a little show doing the skipping tricks that we learned
