Striking and fielding.

WALT: Apply Striking and Fielding activities in a range of sports and activities.

Link to modelling book on online zone.

My Strengths

The striking strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were keep your eye on the ball and stand side on.

The throwing and catching strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were cup your hands or reverse cup as early as possible.

My Next Steps

To improve my striking of a ball I need to play through the shot - follow through because this helps get more power behind your strike.

To Improve my catching and fielding I need to step forward with opposite foot to arm that you are throwing with stand side on rotate shoulders follow through because this helps to get maximum power out of your throw and helps you to get your body into the correct position for greater accuracy.

The game that I enjoyed the most was rounders because I liked how the banking system works.

 One Big Mistake!

 One freezing morning I woke up unable to get out of bed because of the cold , I attempted to open my drowsy eyes. As I slowly opened my sleep covered eyes with bags underneath them , I looked out of the window with small hope that the city would have miraculously changed overnight to the way Auckland was before Mayor Sebastian. But as I approach the window and see smog drifting in the morning air my false hope fades away. Suddenly the door swung open with a loud screech from the old rusted door hinges and Mayor Sebastian barged in with his robot guards trailing close behind. “You’re under arrest ,” announced Mayor Sebastian with a smug smile on his face ,“Tranquilize him at once “ Immediately after he said the I felt a sharp sting in my upper arm and darkness engulfed my vision. As I woke up I straight away looked to where I had been shot with a tranquilizer dart and saw a red dot of blood where the dart pierced my skin. “Help!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. To my surprise a robot guard opened the electric door , cautiously I stepped back not knowing what to expect. ”Pl-pl-please give me an explanation to why you have brought me to this place?” I stuttered slowly shifting towards the back of the room. “You have been brought here for stealing one of the Mayor’s most prized possessions , the portrait of himself drawn and painted by the Queen of England ,” said the robot guard , in the monotone voice all robots use. Suddenly Mayor Sebastion strutted in ,“I am very very truly sorry for mistaking you for stealing , you may now leave ,“ exclaimed Mayor Sebastion quickly with empathy showing on his face. “As we are truly sorry for making a mistake we shall give you a brand new higher paying job,” offered the robot guard after Mayor Sebastion had left the room. “What would be better than moping the floors of a supermarket,” I whispered hoping the guard didn’t here me or the sarcasm in my voice. “You are now the official head of the pretzel factory,” said the guard waiting for a response. “Yipee,” I yelled wondering if anybody else had heard. “Get ready you start tomorrow you should go now,” said he robot guard .

On Thursdays I had PALs and my group and I ran hoops and stilts with the kakano kids. While I was running this I showed the learner qualities of integrity and resilient. I showed integrity by being fair and letting them all have a go since there were lots of them and there wasn't enough hoops or stilts for all of them. I showed resilient by not giving up when the little kids weren't listening.
