PE fielding and striking

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 Firm and correct grip on whatever you are batting with. Stronger hand lower down on bat.

The throwing and catching strategies I was able to effectively demonstrate during the games we played were Keep your eye on the ball. Watch the ball all the way into your hands. Watch the ball all the way to its target.


My Next Steps

To improve my striking of a ball I need to Wide base/ Good stance
because I can get more points by hitting it further.


To Improve my catching and fielding I need to Cup your hands or reverse cup as early as possible because I can give the other team less points by catching the ball


The game that I enjoyed the most was rounders because it was a little competiive
but not too much

Leadership in the food forest

Over the last two the year 8's have been working on the food forest because it needed some work.
Group D AKA my group did chop and drop witch is where you cut the plant 2cm long from top to bottom.
I also cut all the unwanted little bushes.Before that we made envelopes and collected the seeds with the year 4's, we collected the seeds because the 4's next year are planting them.We used envelopes so the seeds won't sweat. It was really hot so it got hard at times to cut down things. Here is a photo of the food forest. It was fun because we got to explore the food forest. What we could done next time is to get more seeds in a envelope. We also had to write the date of when we got the seeds and the name of the seed
