Netball With Emma!

For the past few weeks we have been learning netball skills, Emma our netball Instructor has been teaching room 20 and I how to do a dynamic stretch. There are three types of Dynamic Stretches, Butt-flicks, grape vine and high knees.

One netball drill is about passing. You always have your hands in a W formation then pass it long and strong. I have learnt to chest pass and ground pass. Another drill is about shooting, the ball has to be placed into the palm of whichever hand you write with and the other hand should be supporting it. The last drill of all we looked at was defending. When defending you must always be three feet away from the goal shoot, or the person who you are defending.

Finally, we got to play a game at the end. The bib that I was wearing was WA and that is wing attack. I enjoyed the game, although I did feel tired after the game.

Translating Geometry

Room 20 are exploring how to translate using google drawing, we are learning about Geometry and this is a picture of how I translated this shape. First I didn't know how to translate shapes but now I do, it was kind of hard at first but now it seems easy ,I have used a square for the shape that I had to translate. translating means that you move the shape to one place to another with out resizing it.

Camp TC Reflection.

“NO”!! why Kayaking first? “Isn’t that a great start to the day” THIS IS NOT THE DESTINATION, I WANTED TO REACH!!

Today was the day of the annual year 7 and 8 camp. My group the respectablez
were the first group to go kayaking.

“Sharks there are sharks in the water” I made that up because I didnt want to go in at this time of the morning, Do you want to know what time we went? well i’m gonna tell you anyway! IT WAS 9:30 AM.

But after all it was pretty fun. Having a partner didn’t really help although I had a blast and well that was my camp TC highlight.

Camp TC

The best thing about camp TC that I enjoyed was the Alligator Allie!I liked the Alligator Allie Because it allowed us to work together. The reason I liked this was because it was challenging and hard.
