Cricket/Kiwisport Lesson #4

Hello everyone it’s me Kensington again and we have been having our tennis lessons and we also played cricket. I had a lot of fun playing with my friends and my class. I never got a turn to bat but maybe next time I will.

Cricket!:)

I had to split with my homegroup (homegroup 2) and go and play cricket. Cricket was a lot of fun two people bat and I was outfield with the rest of the class. I don’t really like outfield because I never really catch the ball that much. So lots of  people got a turn to ball and then it came to my turn. I felt very nervous when it came to my turn because I don’t really know how to control the ball to how far I want it to go. But I kept trying to aim at the wicket by pitching the ball with a growth mindset.

After that we had to switch with the other homegroup (Homegroup 1) and go and play tennis inside of the hall. I was wondering why. Then the tennis instructor (Peter) explained to us why. He said that we were playing inside of the hall because the news said that the cyclone gita was coming and it looked like it was going to rain outside, and he didn't want us to worry about the rain and play inside.

The 3 Lesson

After that we learnt how to volley the ball to each other.
Volleying the ball is when one person throws the ball and the
other hits it back to them.

After that we learnt how to smash, and that was when we had
to learn how to control and rally the ball to each other.

After that we had to learn how to just move the racket and let
the strings bounce the ball to the other side, I really enjoyed this.

There were only two nets and on one side there were 4 yellow
spots and on the other side there were 4 red spots. 1 person
had to go on one of the spots. I felt really excited to practice
one of these things. Thats why I really enjoyed doing this with
my Homegroup.

What I found challenging was trying to control my racket when
the strings bounced the ball to others side. Because when
grace tried she got the racket stuck to her hair.

I really hope that you enjoyed reading my reflection.

Kiwisport - Tennis Lesson 3

Kiwisport/Tennis

WALT:Reflect on

Hello everyone me and homegroup (homegroup 2) have
been doing kiwisport and this is our third lesson, and we
have been learning new spectacular things, such as serving,
passing and balancing.

I have gotten better at serving and aiming at what I am going to
serve to.

It’s good to know what or who I am going to serve to so it
could be easier and simple for the ball to come back to where
we want it to.

I have also learnt a new game called get the cone.

First of all there will be two sides your opponent's side and your side. There will be three cones on each side. you have to make sure you aim so you would know where you want the ball to go to, If your ball touches one of the cones then you take the one of your opponents cones. Once you have your cones and the opponents cones you will WIN!.

I had a really growth mindset before we went to play kiwisport because I already had two lessons and I have been having fun in all of them. After we played kiwisport I kind of had the same mindset but I was really tired and worn out.

I really enjoyed playing with my partner Bianna because sometimes I did it wrong but she encouraged me to keep trying my best. I felt very silly and happy at the same time.

I think I need to work on trying to aim to the right place and serving with a happy and growth mindset.

I really enjoyed playing tennis and I hope you enjoyed reading my reflection

Hip hop

   On monday we reflected on what hip hop meant and all the hip hop elements. We all had to stand up and warm up and dance. It's kind of like zumba when someone dances on the stage and we copy theme.
What I found challenging was trying to keep up with the coach

Kiwisport

At kiwisport we firstly played a game called golden child, When the other team has to shoot to the goal and the other team has to run to a specific spot, If the other shoots a goal before they get there the person whos running has to stop in the spot they were in. It was a really fun I usually didn't make it. The golden child has to run pass the people who didn't make it and guide them to the finish line. Next after that we played a game called numbers when they had to call a number and those people in the front of the line have to go in that number. At the end we all had to go and play.
