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

My Strengths

The striking strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were being able to identify that i had to stand sideways when i bat .

The throwing and catching strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were when I threw the ball looked where i was throwing it before i threw it.

My Next Steps

To improve my striking of a ball I need to Hit the ball a little bit more down because otherwise it goes all the way in the air so people can catch it.

To Improve my catching and fielding I need to cup my hands a bit more because if i don't then i drop the ball.

In danish rounders I enjoyed the most was batting because i got a home run.

Devices Are Taking Over Our Lives…

My Argument

https://docs.google.com/document/d/133zJ9PXOBR5Ww0xWvhWAj_X5usAED7sp3sxeCsmiJbM/editFor writing we have been learning to write an argument using the writing process. The topic was “Are Devices Taking Over Our Lives”.

Something I did really well in my writing was being able to explain my point of view.

Here is a section of my writing that shows this.

Firstly, Technology is affecting parents interacting with their children. Has this ever happened to you...You are at a restaurant and you ask you mum for something and all she says is “yeah” and it's not that kind of “oh yes sure” kind of thing it's just a very weak “yeah” and you know for sure that their not listening. Then you ask again and they don’t respond.
