Athletic's Learning storie

“When you feel like stopping, Think about why you started”  

On the 27th of October, it was Athletics day, if you a wondering what is athletics well athletics has lot’s of different activities e.g. like Shot put, long jump, high jump, long distance, sprints, Discuss, and Voltex.

The first activity we did was sprinting which was not my thing but I tried my best and stayed calm, I got a silver which was great but next time I should listen carefully to the instructions that were told because I wasn’t listening at all and didn’t know what to do.

Then we moved on to long distance, I came third and I got a silver. I  tried my best I got tired along the way but I kept pushing myself to do my best. At the end, I was very proud of myself because I did not stop throughout the whole run. I think I could work on trying to pace myself, that means I go the same pace until the end so that I don’t get so tired after.

Next, we had high jump. I got bronzes because I was mucking around not trying my best and I didn’t really push myself, well I think next time I should try a bit more and put more strength to lift up my leg so I can get over the pole.

Straight after that, we had long jump, which is not my thing. For long jump I got bronze because the others were cheering up for me so loud that I couldn’t concentrate on my I running so next time I should tell the others don’t cheer for me loud but quiet and to take off my legs on the red mat, not the grass.  

Now we got into throwing activity’s Voltex. I was pretty good because I got a Gold, I was good at holding the Voltex and throwing but not too high. I think next time I could work on not wasting all my power in the practice throw and just throw it softly but when it comes to the real throw I could try to throw it harder.

 

Our next throwing activity was Shot put, I think I did alright in the shot put I got a Silver.  

I was good at holding the shot put and pushing it high but not throwing it. Next time I could try to stand a little bit closer to the line not way behind.

Now our last activity was Discuss I was not very good but I got a Silver which is good.

It was quite hard throwing the discus but in the second round, I did well. I need to work on bending my legs and put more power into it.

Throughout that whole day I think I did pretty good because I give everything a go but not try my hardest on everything and that is one thing I need to work on.
