Kiwi Sport

WALT: Reflect on what we did during Kiwisport.

Today at Kiwisport we played dodgeball for our warm up. It wasn't very fun in the beginning because when you got out you had to move into the other team but then coach Allan said that we will start doing illumination. It was fun but I got out of the game in 2 minutes so I just stood there with my two friends Sene and Matthew. We were just watching to see if anyone was cheating. We caught a few people cheating but they just carried on playing the game. 

After warm up we moved on to our activity which was shotput but before we used the shot put ball we had to practice with a size 3 Soccer ball. After a few minutes we moved onto the actual ball but some of us had to partner with someone else because there wasn't enough balls to go around. We had a couple throws and then our coach called us in because it was time for the next class to come for their session. What I enjoyed was playing with the shot put ball because I was one of the farrest throwers in my class. What I didn't enjoy was dodgeball because we used soft balls for it and it kept curving when we throw the ball.

Newt week we are going to do long jump and standing jump. Standing jump is different to long jump. In standing jump you have to stand and jump forward you are not allowed to run and then jump and the length of how far jump is from your ankles not from your toes. In long jump you have to run and try jump your farrest. What I found challenging was trying to run because my legs are tired from friday because we had our athletics. What I didn't find challenging was throwing the shotput because it wasn't really heavy.

Today for Kiwi Sport we done Run, Jump Throw It was really fun. I thought it was gonna be boring because we already know how to run jump and throw but they made everything fun for us. I forgot names but next week I'll try and remember. What I really enjoyed about today was the game we played at the end I don't know what it was called but we had to pass the ball to the person at the end and someone has to try beat the ball to the person at the end. We learnt how to run faster one tip is to check to check which means one hand should be up to the check on your face and on to the one at your rear end and another tip is to run on your tippy toes it actually helps me run faster so if it can help me then it can help you. What I didn't enjoy was writing this reflection because I didn't really feel like writing a reflection. What I did enjoy was watching the videos. Here is a video to show you what we done for our last game.

Hip Hop

WALT: Reflect on what we done at Kiwi Sport.
Today our instructor Jasmine showed up for our Hip Hop lesson, she has been sick for the past two weeks. Today we done more of choreography which is practicing a dance routine and then presenting it to the audience. In my group was Sene and Falakiko we were a bit confused but then we got use to the dance moves. First we done the Macarena, Alf, James Brown and then our own dance which was the Monobrow. I had a good time at Kiwi Sport next week I hope we get to learn more dance moves to help add on to what we have learnt from our others sessions. What I enjoyed about Kiwi Sport was when we got into our groups and created our dance routine because sometimes it was funny when we were still practicing. What I didn't enjoy about Hip Hop was when we went to perform because it was kinda confusing on stage with everyone watching us. I think Hip Hop is a great way for us to interact with others so we can make more friends.

Thank you for reading if you enjoyed then please leave a comment.

At Kiwi Sport this week we learnt what choreography and freestyle means. Our instructor's name is Jasmine she comes from England. Choreography is practising a dance until you get it right but free style is when you do your dance on the spot without practice. In my group was Me and my two friends which are Falakiko and Sene. The challenging thing was trying not to muck up when we performed it in front of the class but it was a fun thing to do and something else that my group found challenging was trying to figure out what dance moves we where going to use. We done three dance moves I think bunt I don't remember the name except for one which was the Whip. We where suppose to learn two more dance moves we didn't have time to learn so we had to do choreography. That is all we done at Kiwi Sport this week. Next week I hope we learn the two dance moves we where suppose to learn this week. What I found challenging about this task was trying to remember what we learnt because I was suppose to blog this on Monday but I wasn't focused.

WALT: Reflect on the things I have learnt at Kiwi Sport.

Today at Kiwi Sport we learnt two more dance moves. Last week we learnt the Smurf and James Brown but this week we learn the Alf and Janet Jackson. All of these dance moves is part of Hip Hop. In Hip Hop there are four elements. The four elements are Art/Graffiti, Mc/Rap, Dj/Music and Break Dancing/Dance. Hip Hop first started in 1973. It started because the African American and Latinos felt like they weren't treated right say they decided to come up with a way to express themselves and they created Hip Hop. We also learnt what social dancing is. Social dancing is when you interact with others when they are dancing. Our instructors name is Jasmine. I think my favourite dance move that I have learnt from Kiwi Sport is James Brown because it is nice and easy to do for beginners. Next week I hope we get to learn more than two dance moves. What I found challenging was the Janet Jackson its just the bit when you have to move your legs but already know how to do the arms. I think that Hip Hop is a great way for kids to get together and interact with each other and express how they feel.

Kiwi Sport

WALT: Play Basketball games to improve our dribbling.

The challenges that I had in our lesson was trying to stay calm, don't give up on myself and team and to not slip on the court. I couldn't really stay calm in my team because there was alot of shouting on the court coming from my team and the other team. During our last game I was almost gonna give up on myself but when our coach shouted out the score I noticed that we were still losing so I kept going and never stopped trying. I also found that I kept on slipping on the court because of my balance. It is hard to stay balance when there are heaps of people coming at you when you have the ball that's why I kept slipping. The best part of the lesson was our first game which was golden child because my team was really good with their shooting but when it came to running they kept slowing down but we managed to win the whole thing. I really liked the last game because it was challenging but we still managed to get the ball in the hope. When I looked at the opposite team I noticed that my team had lots of short people and the other team had lots of tall people but didn't stop us from getting the ball in. What I didn't like about today session was that most of my team mates was trying their best and not sharing the ball with others that's why we lost the last game for Kiwi Sport. What I also didn't like was hearing that this week was our last week of Kiwi Sport for this term because we had some great time with our coaches their names are Hyrum and Peter. I hope we see them next term as well.

WALT: Show teamwork while playing Basketball at Kiwisport.
Today at Kiwisport we were only playing games because it was our last session but only Peter turned up today because the other coaches where away. The first game we played was Golden Child. In Golden Child you will need two teams one team for shooting and one team for running. The team that is running as to run around the court before the person shooting gets the ball in. The last person running has to try and tag the people that are out to get them back in the game but if they don't cross the line then the whole group is out. I was the first Golden Child Then My friend Matthew and then My friend Siale went. My team lost I think it was 1-4 that was the points. The second game that we played was Numbers. In Numbers you will also need two teams. Both team has to stand on the sideline so when the coach shouts out a number that is that number of people that has to run on to the court. My team won the whole game the points was 10-0. But I only played for a little while because I took one of my mates to the sick bay because he slipped and hit the pole and scraped his knee. When I came back it was the last round but I didn't really do anything in the last round I just ran on the court and shouted peoples names. After the last game we got into a circle and put our hands in and shouted Tamaki.

KIWI SPORT

WALT: Reflect on what we done for Kiwi Sport.

This week at Kiwi Sport we had coach Peter and coach Yaran. This week for Kiwi Sport we where going to do more shooting and going to have a game of Side Line Basketball. But we couldn't do it because of the weather so we had to come back to class. So instead of doing what the instructors had planned for us they just asked us questions about basketball to see what we have learnt about Basketball. The types of questions that they asked was basic questions for example they where asking us how many people should be on the court and how many minutes are there in one quarter. I learnt the five positions in Basketball which is Point Guard, Power Forward, Small Forward, Shooting Guard and Center. To be honest this session for Basketball was pretty boring.
That is pretty much what we done at Kiwi Sport this week.

Today at Kiwi Sport we were practicing our passes and lay ups. Our instructors names are Peter and Hyrum. What I found challenging was the lay ups because when I went for a lay up the ball would go to the other side instead of the direction I want it to go that is also what I could improve on. The passes we learnt was chest pass, bounce pass and overhead pass. The passing wasn’t really challenging to me because we learnt it already. After doing the passes we had to do Miami drills. In Miami drills you just run and pass the ball to the people on the side and they have to pass back to you and when you finished passing you have to do a lay up. My team lost both rounds because some of us found it difficult to do a lay up. Because we lost we had to do suicides. Our last game for the session was ball tag. It was boys vs girls but the boys in the yellow shirts had to jump in the girls team. I was one of the boys with the yellow shirts. But in the last round we had to jump back in the boys team. The first round my team won and the last round my team won again but this was challenging as well. The reason why I found it challenging was because you couldn't run with the ball and tag someone you had to keep passing it. The experience was fun and challenging. Fun because Basketball is one of the sports e mainly play at school and it was challenging because most of the skills that we done today I havn’t done it since last year.
