Run, Jump, Throw

On Thursday LS2 went and had our session with Andi for Run, Jump, Throw. This week we looked at long jump and some of the skills you need to do for that activity. First we revisited the skills we practiced last week. The skills we learnt about Long jump is that we need to bend our knees and end in a squat position. I had fun learning about this.

Run, Jump, Throw

Today LS2 had a session with Andy all together including the Year 7. First we were talking about the skills we did last week which were look ahead, light feet, stand straight, bent arms and cheek to cheek. Today we talked about distance run and sprinting. First we played a warmup game called octopus. The aim of this game was there were 4 taggers and everybody has to run to the other side without getting touched. This game was a bit hard because there were lots of people playing and there were 4 taggers which made it easier for them. Andy also told us that when athletes run in the beginning they use high knees.  We learnt to stay one metre from the line. We first had to put our left feet to the line when she said take your mark, then we had to bend our right knee and bend our opposite hand to our leg. When she said On your mark ( CLAP ) we then had to run to the other side.
