One fine morning, Room seven went to the top court to play our first session of Netball. We did warm ups when we got there by jogging to the other end of the court and back. Then, we introduced ourselves to the coaches by saying our names, our age and what we want to be when we grow up. I said that I want to be a person who would be looking after old people in the rest home. Our coaches names were Tina & Mark.
Our first lesson was learning to do a balance. We crossed our arms, and lifted one leg up then try and make our partner get out of balance. When that happened, you and your partner would have to jump and stand in a straight position with your legs apart. The second lesson they taught us was a chest pass.We placed the ball in front of our chest and passed the ball to our partner, pushed our body forward to make the ball go straight without dropping it. When catching the ball, we should make a letter ‘W’ with our fingers so that our partner would know that we are ready to catch the ball.
Afterwards, we had to get into three lines standing opposite the other two lines. Whoever gets the ball needed to pass to the left and run quickly to the right. We kept on going till Tina said, “Throw to the right and run to the left as fast as you can!” We switched back again to throwing the ball to the left and ran as quickly as we can to the right. It was way too confusing for me!
Later on we took a warm down as we talked about how our first session of netball went. Some of us answered positively by saying that it was awesome but some of us mentioned that we needed to work harder in improving our fitness.
Learning intention: We are learning to write a recount.
Success criteria: I know I can do this when I follow the structure of a recount: orientation, events and a conclusion.
