Final Sport Science Sport


Kia ora readers this week we have been working on our final Sport Science Project, and we need to answer the questions.

HERE ARE MY ANSWERS

What tests did we do? To test our power we did a standing vertical jump, to test muscular endurance we did a plank, for speed we did a timed 30-meter sprint, for flexibility we tried to touch our toes, for agility we did an agility course, for the strength we saw how long we could hang from a bar, for coordination we threw a ball at a wall with one hand and caught it with the other for seconds, for balance we saw how long we could stand on our toes on one foot, for cardiovascular endurance we did the beep test, and for reaction time we had someone else drop a ruler and we then saw how fast we could catch it.

What were you trying to improve? The things I was trying to improve the most were power and coordination. 

How did you improve those skills? To improve these I did squats for power and catching with a partner for coordination.

Did you improve on any skills? I did improve on strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, coordination, reaction time, speed, power, and balance.

Why do you think you improved on those skills? I think that I improved on those skills because I practiced them all during the practices so I could improve.

Which skills do you want to spend more time improving on and how are you going to improve? I would like to improve more on my power and I will do this by doing squats every day to try and improve.

FairyTales (Rapunzel)


Why do you think texts change over time? Maybe the text changes over time because it is suitable for children.

How come each version we have to read of rapunzel is different, even though they have been written by the same author? Because every author has a different timeline.

What was the same or different in the two versions your read? In the first story of Rapunzel, she has vanished, but in the second one, rapunzel was pregnant.

Hur6 PE

Kia ora,

 readers today in PE when have been learning a  lot about badminton and how to play.

If the sever, serves to the other side of the net they get a point and they serve again, and if it goes out or doesn't get past the net is the opposite team's ball. 
You can play badminton in singles pairs, or two in each team, or 4 teams.
If you hit the shuttlecock or don't hit it back over the net, and it falls to the ground, so you might win 3-0, 2-1, or 2-0 
If  the teams are both on 20 points in a game, the winner must get two points ahead to win, eg, 22-20

Lockdown Homework!!

Kia ora,
readers this week during lockdown I've been working on whats the difference between rock and classical musics. I didn't write that much but that's all I know about rock music and classical music

Enjoy Reading😄

What is the difference between rock music vs classical music?

The difference between rock music and classical, rock music is loud and its rhythm is usually fast too, and when they start playing rock music they get their rock music instruments and play so loud and sing loud. 
Classical music is a nice sound and it's also relaxing like it's not loud or anything. It just feels like you're so comfortable, and it also makes you sleepy.
