KEY WORDS OR RHYMES FOR TEACHING SKILLS
Young children can remember technique for skills the best by providing key word, rhymes or songs.
It is important to recognise that the K.I.S.S (Keep it short and simple) principle should be used at all times. The amount of words you use will vary according to the child's age and development level.
Forward roll:
Two year old: Hands down, head down (2 key points)
Three or four year old: Tall, small, roll like a ball (3 key points)
It is a great idea to ensure all your instructors are using the same key words, rhymes or songs.
