ATHLETICS: JUMPING EVENTS The athletic jumping events are:
1) High Jump: competitors must jump over a horizontal bar
without the aid of any devices.
2) Long Jump: in it, competitors sprint down a runway and jump as
far as they can from behind a foul line into a sand pit (a pit
filled with sand.)

long jump, but involving a “hop, step and jump” routine. The competitor runs
along the track and must do a hop, a step and then a jump into the sand pit.

over a bar

MERENGUE Merengue is a style of Dominican music and dance. Partners hold each other in a closed
position. Partners bend their knees slightly left and right, thus making the hips move
left and right. The hips of the leader and follower move in the same direction
throughout the song. Partners may walk sideways or circle each other, in small steps.

RACKETS 1.- BASIC RULES.
Rackets is a game played by either two players (singles) or four (doubles)
It is played on a rectangular court, divided by a net in the middle.
Players stand on opposite sides of a net and they or the rackets can not cross it.
They have to use a racket to hit a ball, from down to up.
You have to hit the ball before second bounce and pass over the net. Only once
bounce is valid.
If the ball touch the line is good.
2.- ASPECTOS TÉCNICOS QUE VAMOS A TRABAJAR EN
CLASE. 2.1. - RACKET GRIP:
It’s important to hit the ball and score. And also to avoid injure.
Orient the string area so that it is perpendicular to the ground
It’s similar to shake someone’s hand, it’s also called Continental.
2.2. - THE SERVE:
We stand behind the back line. We have to hit the ball
after a bounce, from down to up, and pass over the net.
2.3. - SHOTS:
Forehand and Backhand
The forehand is a stroke that begins on the right side of the body, next to the hip,
continues across the body as contact is made with the ball, and ends on the left side of
the body, next to the shoulder. We put forward the opposite foot to let the body
twist.
The backhand is a strike that begins on the left side of their body, continues across
their body as contact is made with the ball, and ends on the right side of their body.
It can be executed with either one hand or with both.
