Part 1:
In part 1 I develop children’s interest in cheerleading as a sport. I introduce you to the technique of performing sports dance elements with pompoms. I introduce new words and expressions into the children’s active vocabulary. These problems are solved using the following techniques: explanation, showing, viewing slides.
Instructor: Cheerleading is a complex coordination sport that includes elements of gymnastics, acrobatics, and choreography. The combination, by its very nature, bright views sports into a single whole makes cheerleading incredibly exciting and attractive for both athletes and spectators.
Cheerleading originated in the USA in the 1870s and became most widespread by the middle of the 20th century. In the 1860s, it became fashionable among students in Great Britain to cheer on athletes during competitions. Thus, in the USA arose cheerleading.
It's hard to believe, but at first this sport was more popular among the stronger half.
Cheerleaders performed at football and basketball games, and support groups began to appear at school sports competitions. November 2, 1898 into practice cheerleading introduced a fundamental innovation: student John Campbell spontaneously jumped up during a match in front of the fans - after which cheerleaders began to support their teams not only with words, but also with movement. In 1920 drums and other devices are used to help create the necessary background noise, and a little later - special paper pompoms (since the mid-1960s, instead of paper, synthetic materials have been used, which very soon became an integral decorative element of performances cheerleaders.
Cheerleading appeared in Russia in 1996, immediately after the team American football from Moscow visited friendly match in the USA.
Cheerleading may have several directions:
“CHIR” – a team can consist only of females. Participants perform complex acrobatic and gymnastic elements, and also build intricate figures and pyramids;
“CHIR-MIX” is the same as “CHIR”, but the team can include guys;
“CHIR-DANCE” is a dance style in which there are no complex acrobatic and gymnastic tricks;
“CHIR-STANT” – based on the collective construction of pyramids;
“Individual Cheerleader” is a solo performance by the main team member.
The main task of this sport is to support sports teams participating in the match.
In preschool educational organization classes cheerleading contribute to the formation of stress resistance and increased motor activity of children, the development of speed, flexibility, dexterity, coordination, as well as the harmonious development of personality. Children need to be taught conscious motor actions and memorized the right types movements, as well as to form in children the need for physical activity, the development of creative abilities and leadership qualities. When working with children I use “CHIR-DANCE” - a dance style in cheerleading with pompoms, which lacks complex acrobatic and gymnastic stunts.

Who controls the mood of the fans, surprising them with truly circus tricks? Cheerleaders! Who inspires competition participants to perform sporting feats with their chants? Cheerleaders! Who is always in a cheerful mood and in good physical shape? Here they are again! But our grandparents in the middle of the last century also built intricate gymnastic pyramids and performed daring acrobatic jumps against their background. Only this tradition has not taken root. Unfortunately. But fortunately, in our century there is a worthy replacement for it.

Cheerleading is a team sport. You can only talk about a good team when there is a permanent squad. “I accidentally looked into the hall and wanted to join training process- it won’t work that way. Here it is important to create a team, unite the guys, achieve mutual understanding in work, synchronicity in performing movements. In addition to the fact that cheerleading acts as an independent sport, cheerleading teams are created on the basis of kindergartens, schools, colleges, and universities.

On one of football matches the players from the substitute bench decided to support the athletes on the field, shouting words of encouragement and performing light acrobatic tricks.

Today, cheerleading is chosen by both men and women, and complex stunts have been added to the rhyming chants and dance moves. There are two directions:
