Juggling and Table Tennis

Today I learned the rules of table tennis and got pretty good at it, as for the juggling it was kind of difficult cause you have to get into the rythm. Tobey and I got to about 30 hits on the table tennis thing. I think that the harder sport was juggling because if it doesn't come naturally its kind of hard. If we were to do it again I would like to continue with the table tennis cause it was fun and easy to do.

P.E Reflection

One positive thing that happened in lockdown was that I would be with my family during it, and you could also go outside anytime you wanted. Another thing was being able to sleep in until about 10:00 witch was really good.

Some negative things that happened was it was kind of boring as the weeks kept passing, also you could barely even leave your house.

Some things that I have done regarding P.E during the lockdown included basketball and rugby. In basketball I would just throw up some shots now and again on our netball hoop and in rugby I practised my passing and kicking against the house.

Making Egg Muffins- William

-8 Eggs
-1/2 cup of milk
-1 diced tomato
-1/4 diced onion
-A handful of vegetables you like
-2 to 3 slices of bacon

Some of the vegetables that we added were onion, capsicum etc, we also added some bacon and cheese before we put it in the oven.
There werent any problems whilst making the food, apart from one crack from the egg that got quite a bit of shell in it. When we took them out of the oven that were nice and steamy, they also tasted amazing aswell and would definitly make them again.

Rugby Union

Rugby Union

Where did Rugby Union originate?

Rugby was originated in England, many countries now play the sport including New Zealand, South Africa, Ireland etc

Famous Players?

Some famous New Zealand players are Dan Carter, Dan Carter was and is an exceptional kicker and play maker. He played at the fly half position which seems to be a lot of peoples favourite position including mine. Another player which a lot of people love is Richie Mcaw, Richie is a flanker and is a player you would definitely love if you like doing the dirty work.

What changes have been made?

Along the years there have been many changes like rules, clothes etc. Some changes to the clothes is they have made the tops and shorts a lot tighter so other players can’t rip their shirt. One of the biggest rule changes the game has seen is when they changed how much a try and conversion was worth, back then a try was worth 1 point and a conversion was worth 2, now a try is worth 5 points and a conversion is still 2

Cupcakes- Home Economics

Cupcakes:
About four weeks ago I believe, my home economics class made some really delicious cupcakes with icing on top. Although my groups icing was blue it had a rasberry flavor to it, we also added some m&ms, sprinkles and chocolate sprinkles. It wasn't that hard to make because we didn't have to remember every step instead we did it step by step. Over all they tasted amazing and my family also enjoyed them too.
