What did you do today? Date:
Today we had a lesson on learning how to serve a shuttle. At the start of the lesson we went through individual skills to warm up, this was fun and I am getting better at these skills and games. We finished the lesson with a fun game where we had to serve into hoop on the other side of the net.
How did you feel during the lesson? (Tick box activity)
*I was really puffed & tired
*I was puffed but not too tired
*I felt good I was nice & warm
*It was easy I was not tired at all
*We spent the lesson in the classroom & did not do any physical activity
What Parts of the Lesson did you enjoy?
My favourite part of the lesson was when we were practicing how to serve the shuttle and we had to serve to our partner across the net and try to get the shuttle to them without them having to move.
What Parts of the lesson did you not enjoy?
At the start of the lesson it took everyone ages to get the nets out this meant that we had less time to practice our individual skills during the warm up.
