Kiwi Sport

LI: to get really good at softball.
Today I got to play scatter ball and four corners. If you don't ember the five simple steps to playing softball I will remind you. The first step: little knuckles a lined, step two: bat on your dominant shoulder (stronger shoulder), step three: legs shoulder width apart, step four: look what you are hitting not were you want to hit it, step five: swing. I played scatter ball, I started off in fielding and then I got to batting. Everyone got a turn batting and fielding so no one got to miss out. After the game we played four corners, if you don't know how to play I will tell you: You have to have three, four or five pads, there have to be a group of people scattered around on different pads but there is only one person that closes its eyes and try's to hear the loudest group, so if that person hears you she will point at that group and then that group will loose, it will keep on going until there is only one winner.

Today we have a new topic, it is conflict and resolution. I didn't know what it meant but I learned what the three simple steps when a person is sad. The first step is to calm the person down. The second step, ask the person to play a game, if that doesn't work try to cheer him up and then play the game. Sorry but I forgot the last step. We played two games, they were called twenty one and guess the emotion. The first game was twenty one if you want to learn this game look at my last blog.

Filing Documents

LI: to organise our files correctly.
Today I learned to organise my files correctly. I first looked what files were floating around but there there was only one so I put it in its rightful folder. Second I checked all my folders so that there were no mix ups and turns out it was all good. You should really clean you're drive because your computer generates memory in that space, but if you have no more space and if you have troubles with fast loading that's the problem. I learned by sorting and checking my drive.

Games reflection

Over the past few days LS1 has been playing games, the games are one minute to win it games, so basically its like the kids olympics. Last week we played a range of different games like floatacious, roll with it, bottoms up and others. I will tell you some games from last week so that you can play it at home, The first easy game is bottoms up,  you have to get at least twelve or ten plastic cups, one cup has to be a different colour and it has to be at the bottom, you have to transfer the top cups to the bottom so the odd cup is at the top if you finish this in one minute you win but if you don't you loose. The second game is floatacious, you have to have a big bowl filled with water, put a light plate in there so it doesn't sink and you have to stack three cans with no liquid in it, you have to make it stand for 2 seconds or more and if finish this in a minute you win but if you don't you loose. The last game is roll with it. You have to have a smooth stick (not a stick from a tree) and put one toilet paper role on each side, you have to grab the paper and roll it up on you're arms if you finish this in a minute you win but if you don't you loose ( it is probably impossible to loose). I learned to be gentle but fast when you are doing challenges like this. I also learned how to work as a team and to learn what a motto is.
