Wednesday (27/07/2011)


a) Flashcards
 We recapped again words learnt.


b) Athletic Events.
 Other events include Shot putting, Javelin, Long Jump, High Jump, 4 X 100m and etc. Stadiums also have facilities of a football field. The kids are also interested at football kicking.
 Others: Marathon, Walkathon and Country Crossing.


c) Let’s exercise!
 We warmed-up and then did walkathon. Obviously, kids preferred marathon to walkathon. Tzen Yu mentioned that his father is very active at marathon.
 Then, we marched to the school field. We queued in 2 teams; “The Happy Bird” and “The Angry Bird”.
 First, we tried shot putting. We used a ball as a disc to throw across the field. It was fun! I showed them the way an athlete throws so as to throw with full energy.
 Thus, we did football kicking into the post. As we didn’t have a post, we used 2 chairs as the goal post.
 The kids were so excited about tomorrow’s event to Stadium.
