Kiwi sport - Futsal

Today we had futsal with Martin who is from Argentina. Futsal looks like soccer, well it's indoor soccer also known as futsal. Futsal is really fun. In futsal you wear flat shoes because it helps you keep control of the ball. Futsal is a little bit different because they have a smaller soccer ball which is heavy, have a smaller field because it is indoor soccer, goalie can only throw in the ball, and it's only a 40 minute game. First we played warm up games. Our first warm up game was flag tag, after that we played dribbling challenge, lastly we played the number game. I learnt that futsal is an indoor soccer game. I really enjoyed doing this with Martin and the LS2. Thank you Martin         

Run, Jump, Throw

Today at run jump throw LS2 students including the year 7's were learning the positions of the starting a race. Just before we started we played a game named Octopus to warm us up. When we were ready to run Andy said on your mark as she Andy said on your mark we all had to stand near the line but if our feet's were touching the line that means it was a false start and you will be disqualified when Andy clapped her hand we had to run to the other side while we were running we had to use high knees, cheek to cheek, and run in a straight line. After we learnt how to start a race we got into pairs to play a quick game, quick game was when you have a partner in front of you and once you have found a partner we had to sit down to start the game. My partner was Jane (Jane's blog) but we weren't in the same group. I had so much fun doing run, jump, throw. I can't wait for our next lesson. Thank you Andy
