Touch Rugby

Today we learned some basic skills for touch Rugby.

First we learned how to tap the ball, catch, and pass the ball.

Afterwards we played passing drills to get better at committing to the ball and catching. 

I enjoyed these sports games and I enjoy learning about touch.

Writing

Setting description is created with an image of what a character’s place looks like, sounds like, smells
like and feels like

Looks like, describes what the background is. For example the snake house looks like logs, grass, and trees. 

Sounds like, describes the sound of  a character or the place. For example the snake house sounds like

Risk Assessment

I learnt to rate situations on risk level. As a group we looked at five different risk definitions, low, likely, possible, elevated, and extreme risk.

First we read a situation. Then we rated the situations. We rated from 1 - 5, one is low risk and five is extreme risk. 

Next we wrote the consequences for each situation. This means we listed everything that could have happened. 

Then we came up with different types of situations. We made three situations for the five different risks ratings. 

I learned that everything has a risk.

LI.to assess consequences.
