Comment: We watched "Jump Rope for Heart: Skipping Team" in the assembly this afternoon. What skill and talent these students have with just a skipping rope. Watch the video again. Pay close attention to the moves. What moves/tricks did you find amazing? Which move/trick do you think you could try and be successful at? Break that move down into smaller parts and it will be possible if you practice at it.

I loved the move where one guy went under the other two guys well trying not to trip the rope! That looked hard! I think I could do the move were one person holds to rope and jumps well the other jumps in time with out the rope.

I think that when the three guys made a tower while skipping was really cool. I could do that if I practiced hopping on my hands without a rope first. I know that jumping on your hands is really hard because I've tried it before.

I really liked how one guy was jumping rope while doing all these spins and somersaults. I really don't think I can be able to do any of the cool moves except for the criss cross if I took the time into it.

I liked the one were the guy went under the other guys without even touching the rope. I could maybe do something with 2 ropes and skip over both of them. oh and if you keep putting the time at 47 seconds it looks like he is a portal jumper. see you all tomorrow.

The trick that I thoughts was cool was when there was two people swinging the ropes and tree guys did a piramid and jumping on there hands at the same time, I don't think I could do that. I could maybe do some of the easier ones if I put my mind to it! Bye, how was the girls basketball play day?

My favorite trick was when they jumped roped and did cart-wheels and somersaults, I don't thinks I can do those ones but I think I can do the one that someone holds the rope and two people jump together. Well, bye and see you guys tomorrow! :)

The most amazing move that I saw was when the two dudes went over the one dude in like a push up position on double rope. I saw one where a guy were moving his skipping rope really fast and moving his feet like he is running or jogging, that is the move I could try and be successful at. See you all tomorrow!@#$%^&*() :D

I loved them ALL! I think my favourite was the two people on the end holding the rope and there was three guys and they did a pyramid thing and it looked AMAZING. I think the only one I could do is the on where someone skips the rope and you just jump on time and everyone is all in a line. See you all tomorrow.

I liked the one where they were in rows and one guy put it around them and they jumped it at the perfect time and honesly I don't think I could do any of the tricks.

My favourite trick in that video was the one where all the people were lined up and the guy jumped with them in perfect time. I probably couldn't do any of those but I'm good at turning the skipping rope over for other people!

I could probably do that criss cross thing that they did if I really put time and effort into it! I thought it was really cool when the one guy went underneath the two guys while still jumping rope. Some of these people are really talented.

I think the move what someone did skipped, and did the cartwheel. I thought it was cool becuase it is hard to do cartwheel with grabbing the handle with it. I think I can try that. First, you practice cartwheel, and then, you practice jumprope, and last, you start practicing. Skip, and do cartwheel with grabbing the handle of the jump rope, then skip again!

I don't find any of them amazing, I have seen the video so many times. I am used to it. I am already working on a skill, and I don't want to interupt that. See you all today.

I really like how one guy was doing a plank and 2 other guys were crawling under him. I think I might be able to jump on some one back and jump of with lots of practice.

I loved it when 3 guys were almost crawling under each other! They made it look so easy, although that is such a complex trick! I'm not really good at skipping (although I love it!), so maybe I could try a criss-cross or something much less complex. I could try to get faster at regular skipping so that when I cross it won't seem as difficult. Okay, bye!

I can't choose between the three guy crawling under each other while jumping or when the same three guys did a cheer-leading pyramid while jumping! they were both really cool and thy both looked very hard and complicated to do. I think I would probably try the running in place, the 2 skips at a time or the cross because they do look a bit more easy than the others and like something I would be good at. I think polarcolar could do all the different skips! She is an amazing skipper! Well! Bye!

I liked the one where the three guys jumping under eachother and I would probaly start practicing with some friends and maybe try to do it with out the skipping rope in the truck and once I got the hang of that I would try it with the skipping rope! Bye!
