K4, K5, and 1st grade continued to get ready for JRFH this week!!! We started class reviewing the basic cues and then we practiced jump roping. Next, we manipulated the jump ropes by making shapes and numbers, as well as, math problems with the ropes. To end class, we played a gamed called Leap The River.

2nd grade also continued preparing for JRFH!! We began class by going over the basic cues of jumping rope. We then went over some basic jump rope tricks. These included the bell, ski, straddle, scissor, and one foot jumping. We finished class participating in some long rope games.
