Gymnatsic

 In P.E. we practice gymnastics. 

My focus was the Parallel bars.

My 3 activities from the cards were:

1. Holding myself up.

2. Swinging on the bars.

3. Going over the bars.

P.E. - Juggling & Table Tennis

P.E. - Juggling & Table Tennis

In P.E. last week we learned how to juggle and how to play Table Tennis. First I learnt how to juggle. I first had to practice juggling with pieces of fabric cloth. We first started with two pieces of cloth learning to jungle them first. We were using cloth because it would fall slower making it easier to jungle. After that we used juggling balls they were harder. Like the cloth we started with two learning how to juggle them. Then moved to juggling three. I was surprised that I could juggle two balls at once juggling three balls were much harder. I then tried the devil sticks. At first it was hard but then it got easier.

After I was done practising juggling I started to play table tennis. I was not very good at table tennis. I either hit the ball too hard or not hard enough. But by the end of class I was doing well hitting the ball to my opponent. 

So by the end of P.E. I knew how to play table tennis and how to juggle. Over all P.E. on Thursday was a fun learning experience.

Athletics Practice

Athletics Practice

In P.E. we have been practising for athletics. When we first started P.E. we wrote down how we did with different events. Then now a few weeks later we have redone the same events. Our goal was to see the difference between when we started and when we finished.

	Before	After
Shot put	3.06 metres	3.82 metres
Long jump	2.40 metres	2.00 metres
High jump	n/a	n/a
Sprints	11.74	15.00
Long distance	n/a	100m - 28  200m - 1.32 400m - 3.47 1500m - 14.52
Discus	7.10 metres	8.70 metres

In some events I improved while in others I did not. For shot put I improved by 0.76 metres which is better than I thought I would. But with long jump and sprints the result went down. When I started with sprints I was at 11.74 seconds but now I am at 15 seconds. This is the same with long jump before when jumping for the 2 metre line I got 2.40 meters now I have only 2 meters. I think this is because I have become a lot slower. But in long distance I did better than I thought I would. We only did long distance once. For 100 metres I got 28 seconds, 200 meters 1 minute and 47 seconds. 400m I got 3.47 seconds and lastly 1500 metres I got 14 minutes and 52 seconds. Lastly discus, discus was the one I really improved at I started and 7.10 metres and now I can throw 8.70 metres. I think this is because I learnt the proper way to throw.

P.E. - Athlectics

P.E. - Athletics

Today in P.E. we are learning  to properly throw a discus and how to do a fosbury flop.
We first learnt the proper way to hold and throw a discus. We held it and rolled it to our partner then we lined up and threw the discus. After we finished with discus we went into the gym to practise high jump. We lined up and did the fosbury flop. We all participated and had a good time. Because the bar was not there so there was no pressure to jump over it. Then we did it again but jumping off one foot that was more difficult. But at the end I now know how to properly throw a discus and to do the fosbury flop. I really enjoyed P.E. today because the lesson was broken down and really easy to understand. 

Ki O Rahi

In P.E. we have been learning and playing Ki-O-Rahi. We Have learnt the skills and whakapapa of the game. We continue to play and get better.

P.E. Game

In P.E. we have been creating our own games, to do with basketball, netball and football. I was in a group with Kyla, Shontae and Talia. Our game is called Lazy Ball.

Football Skills

Football Skills

Today in P.E. we have been doing football. 
Our aim today was to learn how to trap a ball. We first went into groups of four and got a football. Then we stood in a square and passed it to each other. We then trapped in under our foot. Later we played a game and showed our football skills.
