Athletics Learning Story

        Athletics Learning Story

On Thursday afternoon the year 5,6,7 and 8 participated in athletics at Corinna School.

One of my favourite athletics sport is running because I want to lose weight and and I wanted to see much I can get better at running.

I was very proud of myself because I kept running and running and I didn’t stop until I came 2nd in my group. Coming second is still very good and next year, I will try to do better.

It is hard to to focus on running because sometimes I have butterflies in my tummy because i’m nervous. I have to ignore distractions from other people and not panic. I am good at thinking positively and encouraging myself to do my best.

I was good at running because I watched other people running and saw how they use their arms and their legs. I was really good at keeping my body straight and tall, and my head up because if I don’t, then I won’t see where i’m going. I can Swing my arm 90 degrees and bending my knees so that i can use all my muscles to push myself when I’m running. I know my strongest leg so that I can push off at the start of the race.
