Learner: Ayod

Date: 23.02.17

Learning Area: LH1

Learning Coach: Priscilla Lavakula

Learning Observed:

This week, is our second session of tennis for the learners in habitat 1. Each session is 30 minutes with coach Marcel from AceSports on a Thursday. Tennis is a competitive sport in New Zealand that has two players. A player has to hit the tennis ball over the net back and forth to their competitor. The object of the sport is to win the set or until you reach a tie breaker. We have been learning skills like: hitting the tennis ball up and down with our hand then with our racquets and trying to balance the ball on our racquet.

Key Competencies/ Vision Principles:
Ayod enjoys and participates in all sports. He is willing to give everything a go even when he is unsure. He shows capable skills in holding the tennis racquet and is beginning to demonstrate skills in throwing and bouncing the tennis ball. Ayod listens carefully to the instructions from Marcel and collaborates with others when asked too.

Next Learning Steps:
Ayod is still learning to control the ball when balancing it on his racquet. 

Keep practicing these skills for the next two weeks.

Learning Area: iExperience - Physical Education/Health

Learning Observed

Today we had Get Set Go, a sports programme, come to our school. Coach Cameron taught us a whole lot of new games like walk the plank - where we had to walk along the lines on the court and there were two pirates with noodle swords who would tag us, and red light-green light- where different colours meant we had to do different things to try and make our way to the end of the court. It was so much fun!

Evidence of learning

Get Set Go Movie We are learning to move and balance in all different ways. Watch me play red light-green light!

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

I am developing my Capabilities in Physical Education. I was able remember and tell Coach Cameron what the 3 rules were 1) when Coach Cameron is talking, we are listening, 2) when the whistle blows we freeze, and 3) we must have fun! (Managing Self). I took turns at being the “police officer” that checked for people who were moving when they should be frozen, offering my second turn to someone who hadn’t already had a turn (Relating to Others). I had fun learning all the games Coach Cameron taught us and especially playing them (Participating and Contributing).

Next Learning Steps

Always have my hat at school to wear for iBreaks and Get Set Go. Play the game with your peers Think of one way we could change this game (maybe one colour we could add with an action).
