Active Learning 10: Buddies Visit

Buddies Visit

Today we went to see our buddies again and it was the best visit yet. We played Rock Paper Scissors in an interesting way and it was really fun because our buddies had to use their bodies to make the shapes. My buddy caught on right away and understood the different was to be the rock, paper, or scissors. He didn't copy his opponents either which was good.

I think that over the past couple of visits, my buddy jas become more comfortable around me and isn't as hesitant to answer questions and talk to me, which makes me happy :)

P.S. One thing I noticed was that he cut his hair so he doesn't have an afro anymore.

I can't believe that he got rid of his awesome Afro! I'm happy that he feels comfortable around you. Your blog is really good.

Jan. 7- Pickleball

Today, our class had the large gym as the facility and we played the game pickleball. Since I was talking to another teacher, I didn't know what was going on, so when Simran asked me to be her partner, I said yes. Then, Mr. Neufeld suggested that I choose a BASES student to be partners with and I gladly choose Mariam to be my partner instead. We had lots of fun and did really well. There was a lot of positive energy, which created a nice atmosphere to be in. For me, this was one of the most fun gym classes and I think she had fun too. I hope we get this chance again and have the opportunity to meet and play with more students from the BASES program.

Atomic Volleyball- Nov. 12

Today, it was choice day and Laura, Jackie, and I decided to be a team for atomic volleyball. I had played atomic badminton before and had a really fun time doing it, so I figured atomic volleyball would be fun to...and it was. We did pretty well for our first time and got the hang of it quite quickly. After a while, we joined a team of Grade 8's and 9's and played a big game, which was enjoyable as well. I helped set up and take down the nets, as well as give out the volleyballs to the different teams.

October 7- Pond Run

For fitness day today, out block did the pond run. Overall, I am very proud of how I did on this fitness day because I really pushed myself to see how fast I can run for the minute, but I still followed the guidelines. I never stopped running during the minute, and I walked at a pretty fast pace during the break. I ran with Simran first and then with Hardail. I enjoy running with my friends because we motivate each other to do better. I like the pond run because everyone can do it. Since you aren't counting your laps, it doesn't matter how fast you can run. What matters is the amount of effort you put in.
