Badminton

On Friday last week after lunch, room 21 played badminton in the street. Each term we have a different sport to learn and we develop new techniques about it. Last term we played Netball with Emma. But this term we have badminton and our instructor is Lorene. Our first session of badminton with Lorene was about being gentle with the racket. The first thing we had to do was grab a racket, a shuttle and start hitting it gently. We had to be careful when we pick our shuttles up because people might hit you with the racket.

After a while Lorene stopped us and showed us a trick that we had to try and do. We had to hit the shuttle up 3 times then hit the shuttle once holding the racket under our legs then hit again. I tried doing it but it was hard to do. We also had a competition. The class was split up in half. One half had to sit down and the other side had to see how much shuttles we could hit into the bin. The first game we played the opposite team won. But the second time we played, our group won.
