Earlier today we were preparing for athletics Day. My classmates and I went onto the field to do athletics skills. When we were there we saw Coach Bart who was going to teach us some new skills. At first I thought it was fun when he told us to stand tall, pump our arms and legs and run on our toes. After we did all these warm ups, he told us we were going to play sheepdog. Its like tag but those sheepdogs each have a noodle there are two dogs who try to hunt the sheep while they run away from the dogs. I didn’t really wanted to be the dog so I stayed behind my classmates. It was fun and tiring at the same time. There were 2 rounds as well.
The next skill was a running race we had to practice. I was way behind the line so it means that I’m last to race. At first the race was fun but the last one I started getting stomach aches so I went a little slower. when I got back to the line I sat down to get some rest.
Finally the last game was foam pig jumping. It’s about getting a toy animal and laying down on the grass and placing the pig above your head on the ground. I started getting itchy as well. Then we had to get up and go back to the start and then try and jump to the other side of the animal. We did that two times and then Coach Bart reminded us how to jump far by bending our legs and then swinging our arms when we jump.
When we were done we all said goodbye to Coach Bart.
