This week I chose basketball for P.E. This was our task for it.

Basketball Reflection

What are the main four parts of basketball?

1. Passing
2. Bouncing
3. Shooting
4. Defending

How can you protect the ball from a defender?

Keep it as close to your hand as possible so you have control.

What was challenging for you?

Dribbling the ball in two hands.

What was your favourite part?

Was getting to practice my shooting. I like it because we got to dribble forward and then take a shot.

What would you have liked to have learned more of?

How the game actually works.

What is something you learned?

I learned to keep your hand on the ball for more control.

Throwing-P.E

Today I learnt how to throw correctly I had to point to a target put my feet sideways, a slight knee bend, looking at a target, 45 angle of release and don’t hold the ball too long. I worked really hard on keeping my feet straight to my target.

When my partner throw the ball I had to think about putting my eyes on the ball having cup hands to catch. I did very well catching because I moved to the ball so i’m not just standing there inspecting the ball to land in my hands. Here is a picture of my throwing.
