we have recently had a student teacher help run the class, the past two classes I have been there he helped run class, and organized activities. We played lacrosse the first class, and thats when I learned that he was great at competing, and kept up to the "hyper" and sometimes intense energy of our class! I swear, I loved that class, and lacrosse is my calling. I have done a unit on lacrosse before and enjoyed it, playing it again made me just seriously go full out for that class with a few individuals like janel, kyle, and zauq!
The next class was when he ran and we played long ball, I have also played this game, and even though there were some kinks in the game, he made things clearer and was great at equally giving teams trials at the game until we got the hang of it. The last class was today,were we played a guessing/ strategy game, tied in with flag football! I think this class is great and the organization and creativity put into the game was great!! the game between band kids was intense and you can tell we were into the game because we went into double OT
practices for dance have been intense, especially because we have back to back competitions THIS friday and Saturday. We had practice today, so on top of running a lot during gym, we did a super long warmup. We stretched like we usually did, and afterwards we did circuits, so we did four reps, but mainly focused on core, and leg strength. But we were not done yet, we did four sets of sprints, for cardio, and then afterwards did suicides, but instead of sprinting both ways you sprint to the line and then jog back, this is to help us change from easing into moves then going full out, and also reserving energy during the competition.
We got like 5 minutes to rest but while that happened we were playing around with a ball, and people kept trying to shoot it in the hoop. When kathleen had the ball i stole it, and then made a shot thinking i wasnt goin to make it because i haven't played in a long time, but it went in. #ballislife LOL
we then worked on our performance and facials, and also learned a bit of new choreography for our new piece.
