Kiwi Can

Today LS1 had Kiwi Can in LS1 with Mr Malu. For kiwi can our theme is still self control and resilience. Self control means being able to manage your emotions and actions and Resilience means coping and bouncing back with challenges. The first game we played was Defender. To play defender the whole class was split into 4 groups. I was in group 3 and in group 3 was Angela, Marieta, Chavda, Liane, Viliami, Nevaeh, Hosea, Matthew, Jack, Alex, and Julian. Everyone had to get into a circle and spread the legs and make sure there foot was touching the other persons foot who was next to them. We had to put one hand behind our backs and the other hand will be used to defend. In each group they were given a tennis ball. When Mr Malu said go someone would roll the ball towards someone and tried to hit the ball in between their legs. You had to use the one had not put behind your back to defend and make sure the ball doesn't go into your space. If it does then you are out and you could sit down. If it didn't you would then have the ball and you could try to get someone else. In the same groups we were all given a piece of paper a marker to write with. Mr Malu would ask a question and as a group we would discuss it and someone would write it down. Then we played another game, where the whole class sat in a circle and were numbered off 1 to 4 by Mr Malu. Then when Mr Malu called out a number from 1 to 4 that group of people who were numbered that number would stand up and go into the middle of the circle. Mr Malu would give someone this white, blue and red ball so they could try to get us out by rolling it to us, and if it touched us we were out and had to sit back down. If it didn't touch you and the ball rolled to someone else they could try hitting someone with the ball. We didn't have much time because it was going to be morning tea time so we only got to play about 3 or 2 rounds of that until the bell rang.
