Kiwi Can Reflection

This week Wednesday we had our first lesson of Kiwi Sport. Our leaders are Ms. Page, and Mr Alapati. Our theme is Positive Relationships and our topic is Positive communication. First we discussed the topic and our understanding of what we will be learning. Our first activity was up, down. We had to get into a circle and when the leader said down, we had to bob our heads down but when up was said we had to look up and stare at someone. This had to show honesty and be truthful if you were out. We then went outside to play our next activities, and for the first one we needed to get into small groups of three and stand in a circle. I worked with Sakina and Florence. We each numbered ourselves off like every other group, and once a leader called out a number, that person ran around the circle. The two partners built a tunnel with their arms and body, for the runner to go through. In the middle there were only 5 hoops to stand in, but if your runner was last to get in a hoop then the group was out. The final activity for the afternoon was a trailing game. Two partners had a leader, and someone holding onto their shoulders at the back. Each pair's leader was trying to tag the other person at the back of another pair. My pair was Florence, and it was quiet hot out so we got out in the first few rounds. This game showed communication because the person at the back had to signal when someone was coming and the leader had to keep an eye out. We finished up, and said goodbye to our kiwi can leaders and headed to the fale to spend the rest of our time before going home.
