Sound Movie

This is my sound movie

AFL

Intro:

We have been learning really cool skills at AFL.This happens every week on wednesday. AFL is a really cool spot. Tim, our AFL teacher has been teaching us these skills. I like AFL because I think kicking the ball is fun.

o

What we learn:

The skills we learnt in AFL is handball, punt kick, passing and catching. To do the hand ball you need to hold the ball flat on your left hand and  with you right  hand, hit the x on the ball.

Conclusion:

I have been really enjoying these lessons, but sadly because term 2 is over, AFL is over. I’m looking forward to the spots we will be doing next term.

Zion Echolocation

What is Echolocation?

Echolocation is when animals use sound to find their food. First they make a sound. Next the sound rebounds off their prey and back to them. This skill is unique.

Who is Ben Underwood?

Ben Underwood was a kid who learnt echolocation. He makes a clicking sound with his mouth. It rebounds off the object and the sound comes back. He was blind but he could  play basketball, ride his bike and skate.

What animals use Echolocation?

The animals that use Echolocation are whales, dolphins and bats. Dolphins and whales use Echolocation because it is really dark under water. Bats use it because it is dark at night and when they come out they need to find their food.

Touch

 For  those who want to play touch. They have to need a coach and a rugby ball. Then you need two set of teams. Now you can play the games. Then you choose   

what team to kick. Once they catch the rugby ball you have to start running and when you get touch you have to tap the ball and pass it to your team mate. Then you need to do the same thing until it is 5th and fine.

Once they score a try. They would get points for their team. Then the other team would have to kick the ball.
