In the morning room9 went to  skipping. Melissa handed out the skipping ropes.The first thing room9 had to do was to stand in a straight line outside.The first movement room9 had to do was 20 forwards skipping.  To do forwards skipping, you put the rope behind you and then you start to skip.The second move was 20 backwards skipping.  To do backwards skipping you got to put your rope in front of you then you jump.The third movement was 20 side to side.  To do the side to side move, you place your rope behind you then jump side to side.The fourth move was 20 slide skipping.  To do slide skipping  you put the rope behind you the you slide.The last thing they did was a competition to see who could jump the longest.  After that the children in room 9 were all tired. When the skipping was over they made their way to class and carried on with their work.
