Esol Learning Objective Week 10

 Today in ESOL we had to make a short blog about the highlights of this term.

Out of every ESOL class we have had, yesterday was probably one of the best lessons cause we had a listening test which doesn't sound very interesting but it was really nice to just sit down quietly and work after doing sports outside. I also really liked that after the test we were allowed to just talk and have free time. 

Even if I didn't do my very best during the test, I was still proud of being able to do the test well. I do wish to score higher and better for the rest of my tests.

I also enjoyed watching Penguin Bloom it was a really nice movie and it was nice to just sit down and watch but the task involved was really fun too.

PE BADMINTON BLOG

 For the week we have been playing badminton in PE. Today I am going to tell you how to score a game.

You can play badminton in singles or pairs. There are smaller lines for a single match and wider ?deeper lines for the doubles match.

If you hit the shuttlecock over the opposite side. and they don't hit it, but it lands within the court lines, you score a point.

if a server is unsuccessful in hitting the shuttlecock over the net, or the service doesn't go diagonal, it's a point to the other team and they get the next serve.

if you hit the shuttelcock out of the lines/court, it's a point to the other team.

if you don't hit the shuttlecock, or don't hit it back over the net, and it falls to the ground on your side of the court, its a point to the other team.

The first team to reach 21 points wins the game. There are usually 3 games played. 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.

Yesterday we made a map of the Hikoi from the far north parliament.

This worked really well because it was easy but google earth was really slow and going back and fourth took forever.
