This is my Gym page. My gym teacher is Mr. Brown. Gym is a fun class with lots of different units based on different sports/ games. We learn lots of team games and single games. I like gym because we do lots of fun games and I have lots of friends in my class. My favorite games (or the ones that would be most interesting to read about on my website) are listed below.
Badminton unit:
Dancing unit:Flicker Ball:Four square: |
We are now starting a badminton unit in gym. You have 1-2 partners and play against other groups of players.We have 8 courts and if you win the game you move up one court and if you lose you move down a court. The highest court I've been to is court 2. The object of the game is to hit the birdie over the net with your badminton racket only touching it once.
In this unit we are dancing and learning lots of cool moves. The girls stand around the perimeter of the gym and switch through guys as the teacher says to rotate. I don't like dancing that much but it still is a little fun. We learned basic moves like: basic turn, lady's turn, guy's turn, dishrag, slide, corkscrew, and many other beginner moves. Flicker ball is basically basketball with a football. In Flicker Ball we are on teams of 4 or 5 and we are on a basketball court. We have to throw a football to each other and the person with the ball can't move, they can only throw the ball to other team members. Once you get close enough to your hoop, you can try to make a shot. If you make it, you get a point. In P.E. we are playing four square. In four square someone serves the ball and if it lands in your square, you have to hit it before it bounces out. If you can't then you are out. You can also have fun extra rules like you can catch the ball, and say "bus stop" and everyone goes to the middle and the last one to get there is out. Another one of the extra rules is you can catch the ball and say "volcano". Everyone has to run to a corner of their square and not be the last one. I liked four square because I had a fun group of people to play with and they don't care if you mess up. I put this on here because I liked this game more than any other games. |
