Each student will be given a list of jumps and tricks to complete. Once they can successfully execute the jump/trick 7 times, they may move on to the next skill. After all of the jumps have been completed, each student will come up with a routine that consists of 10 different tricks completed at least 5 times without missing or the rope stopping. Each student will have numerous opportunities to complete the jumps and routine. Ropes are available for checkout from Mr. Elam or Mrs. Price to practice at home.
