Softball

Learning Intention: To  practice softball skills.

Learned about...Today we played kiwi sport and we practised our skills that we learned like monkydile, fielding and batting. First we were divided into two groups and my team did fielding while the other team did batting. While fielding we had to throw the ball two times to any of your teammates and then put it on top of the cones. After that we did batting where we had to align our knuckles, legs apart, bat on your dominant shoulder and your elbows up. First we had to hit two balls and after that we had to hit only one ball and run all the bases. When we were not sure if we could make it to the home base than we should stand on a base and wait until one of your teammates to hit the ball. Once the team mate hits the ball again than we could run to the home base. However we had to keep in mind that on one base, two team members can not stand and if we do so, the second player who gets to the base will be out.

Learned by ...We learned by playing a game called scatter ball. Scatter ball is part of soft ball where we learned about batting and fielding. Our teacher gave us the instruction and we followed the instruction and practised playing on the field in teams.
