L.I To learn how to use a bat and run around the basis. 

Today I went to kiwi sport. At kiwi sport Alison was there to teach us and give us a reminder on what we do when we get to a base and a reminder on how to use a bat: We needed to make sure our arms were shoulder with apart, small knuckles aligned, right hand on left hand (If you are left handed then you put it on top of your right hand), bat on right shoulder (Again if left handed put it on the left shoulder). We then went on played scatter ball, if you don't know what scatter ball is then this is it. There is two balls that you have to hit as a batter, (We hit one ball) then you have run and make sure you touch the basis or else you will have to go back on run on it again. The fielders job is to get the ball and put it on the cone before the batter makes it to home base. It was fun playing the game again but soon we didn't have much time left to do it again, instead we played a game called four corners, (With basis). Four corners is a game where there is four corners for you to pick on which one you want to go on. Then the person in the middle of the four corners points to a corner, if they point to you your out. You also have to be quiet and sneaky. On round two of four corners we had to walk backwards to the base, it was pretty tricky but I had fun with it. On round three we had to walk like a animal of our choice, I picked an elephant but I had to make sure I didn't make the sound effects. It was really fun to be an elephant and many different animals such as: Crabs, Giraffes, Chickens and many more. Soon we sadly ran out of time but we had fun regardless. 

I learned by following the skills on how to use a bat and how to run around the base.

L.I To learn how to run around the basis and use a bat properly.

Today at kiwi sport we played the same game as last week, scatter ball. We first had to remember the batting skills which are: Shoulder with a apart, knuckles aligned, right hand on top of the left hand (left hand on top of right if left handed), and bat on right shoulder (again if left handed bat on left shoulder). This time when we played scatter ball the batters had to actually use the bat how they are suppose to, if they miss three or four times then they can hit it from the tee. The batters had to try to hit the ball while it was thrown to them. They could also stop on the base if the ball almost got to the home base. For the fielders there was a backstop that they had to throw it straight to. After scatter ball we played a game where we had to get in circle and we all had to have our hands on our knees. The thrower could also fake throw to make the other person flinch, if they flinch they are out. If they miss the ball they also are out.

I learned by using the batting skills and learning how to bat properly by hitting the ball when its thrown to me.

L.I To practice using a bat.

Today I went to kiwi sport to learn how to use a bat. To use a bat you need to make sure that you have your hands touching and your big and small knuckles aligned together, then your legs shoulder with apart, you then have to put your hand your most comfortable with on top of your other hand. We also played a game called scatter ball. Scatter ball is a game where there is two teams, one team is the batting team and the other is the fielding team. The batting team has a bat and they have to hit the ball as far as they can, once they have hit the two balls they have to run inside of the cones that the fielding team stands behind. The fielding team has to make sure they stand behind a cone and they can not move until both balls are hitten. This game was really fun and I enjoyed it.
