teaching basic gymnastics: Gymnastics of the Mind Raffaella Cribiore, 2005-01-24 This book is at once a thorough study of the educational system for the Greeks of Hellenistic and Roman Egypt, and a window to the vast panorama of educational practices in the Greco-Roman world. It describes how people learned, taught, and practiced literate skills, how schools functioned, and what the curriculum comprised. Raffaella Cribiore draws on over 400 papyri, ostraca (sherds of pottery or slices of limestone), and tablets that feature everything from exercises involving letters of the alphabet through rhetorical compositions that represented the work of advanced students. The exceptional wealth of surviving source material renders Egypt an ideal space of reference. The book makes excursions beyond Egypt as well, particularly in the Greek East, by examining the letters of the Antiochene Libanius that are concerned with education. The first part explores the conditions for teaching and learning, and the roles of teachers, parents, and students in education; the second vividly describes the progression from elementary to advanced education. Cribiore examines not only school exercises but also books and commentaries employed in education--an uncharted area of research. This allows the most comprehensive evaluation thus far of the three main stages of a liberal education, from the elementary teacher to the grammarian to the rhetorician. Also addressed, in unprecedented detail, are female education and the role of families in education. Gymnastics of the Mind will be an indispensable resource to students and scholars of the ancient world and of the history of education. |

teaching basic gymnastics: Teaching Parkour Sports in School Gymnastics Sascha Rochhausen, 2011 Parkour Sports combines the trend sports of parkour, freerunning and parcouring. All of these disciplines are founded on moves derived from classic gymnastics skills, which makes them eminently suitable for school sports classes.

Sports teachers and trainers will find that the moves contained in this book are presented and explained in a clear and easy to understand manner and require a minimum of prior preparation.

teaching basic gymnastics: Drive Daniel H. Pink, 2011-04-05 The New York Times bestseller that gives readers a paradigm-shattering new way to think about motivation from the author of When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing Most people believe that the best way to motivate is with rewards like money—the carrot-and-stick approach. That's a mistake, says Daniel H. Pink (author of To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Motivating Others). In this provocative and persuasive new book, he asserts that the secret to high performance and satisfaction-at work, at school, and at home—is the deeply human need to direct our own lives, to learn and create new things, and to do better by ourselves and our world. Drawing on four decades of scientific research on human motivation, Pink exposes the mismatch between what science knows and what business does—and how that affects every aspect of life. He examines the three elements of true motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose-and offers smart and surprising techniques for putting these into action in a unique book that will change how we think and transform how we live. |

teaching basic gymnastics: Teaching Basic Gymnastics Phyllis Cooper, Milan Trnka, 1994 Teaching basic gymnastics: a coeducational approach provides methods of teaching and spotting for many beginning and some intermediate gymnastic skills. Emphasis is placed on guiding instructors in working with students in typical physical education classes. Instructors are urged to encourage students to seek their own individual levels of success rather than perfect performance. In most physical education classes, the typical student does not have the time to develop skills beyond the level of advanced beginner. Therefore, Teaching basic gymnastics does not address true intermediate or advanced skills. The events presented in the text include coeducational apparatus, individual and dual activities, pyramids, and modern rhythmic gymnastics. The level and number of skills presented in each teaching situation will depend on the amount of time available for the gymnastics unit and the instructor's expertise&… Throughout the text attention is given to the importance of providing a safe learning environment by way of careful inspection and proper use and placement of mats and apparatus. Class organization is also discussed. |

teaching basic gymnastics: Bringing Symbols to Life Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov, 2018-09-04 ‘In order to channel water, we dig ditches and furrows, and to light our houses we install electrical circuits. These examples are analogies: if we want to be able to pick up the spiritual energies passing through the atmosphere and make them circulate, we must install channels and circuits within ourselves as well. The gymnastic exercises we do each morning are a way of capturing these energies and making them circulate. This is because the geometric figures that correspond to the different movements relate to spiritual forces and entities. When we trace these figures in space, we are attracting the forces and entities to which they are linked, so that they can work in us.’ Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov |
