Challenge 3 - Speed Bounce

Speed Bounce

All you need for this week's challenge is a small space and an object you can use a small hurdle to jump over. Start by standing feet together, next to your hurdle. The aim is to jump by taking off and landing on 2 feet, sideways over the hurdle as many times as you can in 30 seconds. If you land on the hurdle or move it as you jump over it, just reset the hurdle and carry on. 

Make it harder

  • Use a slightly higher hurdle
  • Try the challenge with a hop

Make it easier

  • Use a slightly smaller hurdle
  • Try the challenge by bounding from 1 foot to the other to get over the hurdle

If you would like to share your attempts at each challenge you can ask the grown ups in your household to film you or take a photo of you doing the challenge and then send it in to Mr Thomas at dthomas88.307@lgflmail.org along with your score and possibly a write up about how the challenge went in your household.

'This is the speed bounce challenge. I used a higher hurdle and hopped and my score was 56 in 30 seconds.' 

Well done Luke for scoring 39 in the Speed Bounce challenge. Great effort and you beat your big brother!
Good start Alex, well done. I know you won't be happy about Luke having a higher score than you at the moment though. Keep trying!
First parent video/photo of a challenge has been sent by Alex and Luke's dad! Well done for being the first official parent and bigger well done for beating the boys!
