Making discus graphs

Hello everyone,

Welcome back to my blog. So this blog post is about maths and measurement and you already know I like maths so I am posting it. We are doing this measurement topic in maths because we have athletics so we have to train. This athletics activity is about Discus.

First we had to measure how far we threw on a data. We measured how far we three on knees and standing up with a discus.  Our group did pretty good, Joseph had sixteen metres on knees and twenty two metres standing, Karsten had thirteen metres while on knees and sixteen metres standing, Myself got twelve metres on knees and twenty four while standing, M.J. had twelve metres on knees and nineteen metres standing and Tutoe threw sixteen metres while on knees and the same for standing.

Our next step was to create a bar graph for throwing discus on knees and standing. I skipped by two's for both graphs. I also added details into my graph. Last of all I explained how they are different. My explanation is: When your standing while throwing the discus you have more power because your using your legs and body. Also we had to rate our selves from out of five for presentation and effort I gave myself a three out of five in my presentation and four out of five in my effort.

Question of the day: Have you guys made a graph before?

Please leave a comment so I know my next steps.

School Friday which means P.E.

Morena everyone,

 welcome back to my blog I know I haven't being posting a lot is because I got a new account in high school. But anyways every Friday at school we have cool amazing fun activity.

So last week on Friday we had P.E. and we got to play a cool game of softball. So our coach had to explain the rules first for the beginners. 'You know me I already know how to play softball'. After our coach explained the rules we did a fun drill. We spllited into four groups and we needed four to five in a group. The four of us in my group practiced our catches and passing wearing a baseball gloves. Then we practiced our batting skills. And most of us wear nearly hitting the ball. But then it was lunch time. 

It was time to play the game and here comes the intense part. It was my turn my heart pounding really hard like pouncing on a concrete floor. I followed the ball with my sharp eyes as I was swinging the bat. But then I got a strike and another strike but then the third hit I hit the ball really hard as I can and then it bounced of the grass which then I can run as fast as I can to the home bases. My feet were thumping softly but crunchy because of the grasses. I didn't took the risk to get the home run but I managed to get a home run because of the players in my team. Then we swapped over my team were pitching and I was the back stop I caught the ball once when my team was pitching. I hold it tight and threw it to the catcher but then the catcher caught it to late. Then we had a swap over again but this part it was bad. When I was bating when the ball suppose to go far away from me it hit me on the face. But luckily it didn't hurt but I was embarrassed. 

But then my team won by sixteen points and our opponent had fourteen points. 

Rules of the softball:

• Each team consists of 9 players and teams can be of mixed gender
• A game lasts for 7 innings and is split into two sections; the top and bottom of the innings.
• Each team bats once in each innings before the sides switch.
• The fielding team has a pitcher, catcher, a player on first base, second base, third base, three deep fielders and short stop.
• A batter must successfully strike the ball and run around as many bases as possible. Once they get all the way around and back to home plate without being given out a run is scored.
• The fielding team can prevent the batsmen by making them miss the ball, catching the ball, tagging one of the bases before they reach it or tagging the batsmen whilst they are running with the ball in hand.
• Down the first and third base line is a foul area. Once the ball crosses this line before it bounces the ball is deemed ‘dead’ and play restarts with a new pitch.
• A home run can be scored by hitting the ball over the outfield and into a dead ball area. The batsmen can then stroll around the bases to score along with any additional batsmen on base.

So the topic for this activity is about names.

So the challenge was to: imagine you were allowed to change my name to anything that want. And why would you choose that name.

If I would change my name to anything it would be:
Stephen Giannis which is a mix of stephen curry and Giannis Antetokounpo. Because they are a really good player in basketball and they are both my favourite.
