IALT: Learn tips on how to run faster

Today for Kiwisport we had Run, Jump & Throw. We first split into 2 groups and we started playing Capture the flag but with Noodles and Cones. The way we played this game was there was 2 Hula Hoops filled with 5 cones and each Hoop had a Guard that was armed with Noodle to protect the cones.I enjoyed this game because it was really hard to get the cone without getting hit. We also got to learn how to run faster with some tips but I could only remember one which was Cheek to Cheek.It means pump your hand to reach your Cheek and then pump it back down to reach your Butt Cheek.This was a really good tip because it really helps you run faster.The last game we played was a little bit of a relay.We had four different teams and there was on runner that had to sprint down the line.The aim of the game was to sprint down to the end before they pass the ball to the last person of the line.I enjoyed this game because it was really fun and I enjoyed passing the ball down.On thing I thought that my team could work on was catching the ball.

In Conclusion I learned that in order to run fast you have to be able to pump your arms to help you.

Maths

WALT: Solve word problems

Today in class we were doing our maths and my group the Number Ninja's were solving Word problems. This was our first word problem and the question is how many cans are there altogether. I found this question quite easy because I first recognised that the real question is 8 x 6 which equals 48. This first question was really easy because I found the clue fast and I enjoyed it.Sadly this was the only question that I got through because I had another question but I  couldn't get through it yet so that was the only question today.One thing I found quite challenging was trying to remember my times tables because I kind of forgot them for a second. I enjoy doing Maths because I like solving things because they sometimes give me a challenge.

Tai chi

IALT:Reflect on what I did in Tai Chi

(Mr gordon on the left)

Today I went down to the hall for our first class for Term 4 with Mr Gordon.I walked down a little bit late and then we started to do our Chi Gung.Then we got into our Sharing circle where we shared our Positive thought, Negative thought and a Random act of kindness if we had one. My positive was I went to the movies 3 times in the holidays and my negative was My sister, Her bestfriend and my cousins went to Hawaii without me.Then we went on to our Power word for the week which was the word Trust. Mr Gordon shared with us a story about how he didn't trust a guy named Jason. Then we played our game which was a few trust exercises. We first had to find a partner and sit down in the sit up position and both feet through your partners feet. Finally we had to hold eachothers hands and try to pull each other up.I found this quite challenging because it was kind of hard to keep my feet on the floor. The second exercise that we did was stand back to back with a different partner and link arms. The challenge was for us to try and sit down and stand up the fastest.I found this really challenging because me arms hurt alot.I think that I had really good time at Tai Chi because the movements we do help me to relax and calm down. I would recommend that all school should try get Mr Gordon into their schools because he could help kids relax and learn a bit of Tai Chi.
