 * __ Grade 7 __**

28.10-2011 Today we againg did gymnastics and it was againg very fun though there was some things I couldent do because I have a rash on my back and it is so painfull if I roll on my back or something like that, I managed a headstand without mr.Richards help... just Majurys help. The funniest and coolest thing we did was a pyramid. Adrian, mr.Richard and Per Einar ¨ was at the bottom, in the middle was Mai Ve and Gunnhild and at the top was I. ;)

04.11-2011 Today when we had had gym we were not in the gym-hall, we were in a cottage in Bjørkedalen. So what we did in gym was a long walk in the woods. It was very exiting, after we walked about 3 kilometres we came to a "lavo". It was very fun there, it was the "lavo" that was very unusualy big, it was also to "stamps" there. After taking a break there we went the same way back... or we thought we went the same way back. It was a slitly different way so we used 20 extra minutes but that doesent matter. We did at least come back to the cottage. :)

11.11-2011 Hi! Today we got our second assessment of Mr. Richard. The assessment is to make make a gymnastic routine, and by the way we are also going to be filmed while doing our routine. We were divided into groups, my group were four(4) members, that is Majury, Margrete, Johanne and me. I think and hope that we will get good grades. We have alredy started to create our routine, were not quite there and it is two(2) week until we are getting filmed So we want to pactise more, so what wewe have agreed on is visiting Margete at her home so we can practise more, we are going to her house because she is the only one with a mat we can practise on. ;)

18.11-2011 So today all we have done is practising on our assignment, when we were taking a break we wanted to read our sheet(were it says what we need in our routine) to make sure that we have everything in our routine, but then we find out that we need to have four(4) rolls.!!!!! And we only have one(1) so we had to change the whole routine!!!!!! We also had to practise more rolls, because not everyone managed to do all of them, so they souported the rolls they didn't manage. Margete and I did a teddybear roll because Majury and Johanne didn't manage to do them etc. We couldent pactise so much and we don't remember our new routine so Mr. Richard said that we could go to the gym earlyer next week since we are filming then, and if we go earlyer we can practise more, trust me... we need it! :)

25.11-2011 Today we came at the gym 08:00 so we can practise more on our routine because we are filming today. So started practising straight away!! When we filmed everything went as it was supose to go!, I am very proud of the group that we managed the routine even though we had to change something in the last minute. ;)

02.12-2011 So today what we first did was doing som warm-up. Then we got to decide three sports we wanted to do, which was badminton, kanonball and inside hocky. :) Me and Majury played kanonball all the time, Mr.Richard was so nice to us because since we have finished our assessment  and videotaped it he was going to call us in group by group to talk  about the grades. So while the other groupes were getting they're grades  we were playing kanonball. When Mr.Richard called my group in I was a  bit nervos because I thought that I would get bad grades since when I saw  some of the boys doing they're routine I saw how good they were, so I  thought he was going to think that we were bad. But when I got my  grades I found out that it was not bad! I am really happy with my  grades and I hope that I will continue with good grades. ;) <3

06.01-2012 2012! We started our first unit in 2012;) We have bascet-ball!  I really look forward doing this unit, to start of with the unit  we learned how to control the bascet-ball. We divided us into  four(4) groups to practise on shooting in the bascet-ball nett. After  we practised for about 15 minutes we started playing a  game called killers;) It was really fun, I won three(3) times out of three(3)!! I can't wait til next time. ;) <3

13.01-2012 So in this lesson Mr.Richard divided us(MYP A and MYP B)  into groups, in the group I'm in there is Majury, Samuel, Adam and me. We did a couple of warming up exercices and some games to help us inprove on our dribblingskills. ;) I think that the lesson was very usefull. Majury and I meen  that we now know how to control our ball more when we  dribble. And next lesson we will practice shooting in the  bascet-ball nett. ;) PS: sorry if there are some spelling mistakes.

20.01-2012 This lesson we started in our classroom. In the groups we had last time plus Ahmed since he wasen't here last week, we were going to find out some rules and some tequinics, and performe it to everybody in the hall afterwards. I think our performance was well. After all the performances we practiced on shooting in the bascet-ball nett from the sides. But today I started to wander if I can do the assessment we are going to have in this unit because on the unit-sheet we got it didn't say when the assessment is due, I'm taking one week free to go to Thailand right befor the winter break. But I hope it is befor I go. ;)

03.02-2012 Today in P.E we worked with tennisballs, we havent chanched unit it's still bascet-ball but Mr.Richard wanted us to play with them today to make it easier to play with the bascet-balls since they're bigger. Myp a and Myp b got divided into (2) groups, we sort of had races. We bounced the ball while running and passing the ball and other sort of warm up. after the warm up wegot divided into smaller groups to play two by three and three by three.

10.02-2012 Now we are finishing our unit bascet-ball. It's been a really fun unit, I feel that I've learned a lot. E.g. I learned that when I'm going to shoot you should try to  flick the ball, I learned which corners above the bascetball-nett I should aim at. I learned how to scoore from the sides of the bascetball-nett. The unit has been really fun and learning. The assessment was fun to, first a partner was going to sort of assess you when you try to shoot in the bascetball-nett from the sides, the second part of the assessment was a 2vs3 game. Mr.Richard filmed us playing and will probably assess it. I'm really looking forward to the next unit, I hope it's handball.

02.03-2012 Today we got a new unit, it's called fitness. We will be doing fitness for the next four(4) or five(5) weeks. What we first did was a bleeptest! It was so exhausting! I got to level 5.3. majury(my partner) got to level 5.2. after the bleeptest Mr.Richard explaind a bit about different thing we got on a sheet. Majury and I did first something I don't remember what it's called but we had to see how long you could strech your arms sort of, you sat by the bench, it was a ruler on the bench and you were going to measure how long you could go, I did +7. Majury did +3 or something. The second thing Majury and I did was reaction. Your partner was going to hold a ruler so it points down, you were going to put your fingers by 0, then your partner is going to drop it any time and you need to catch it as soom as possibe(get the lowest number possible). I got 5cm and Majury got 8cm. Looking forward to the next lesson if we're not doing the bleeptest! ;)

09.03-2012 Today we started with the bleeptest because it was some people that diden't have time to do it last week. I wanted to do a bit of the test to get warmed up. My partner(Majury) was in Italy so I worked with Margrete and Johanne. First we did the jump part when we are going to jump as high as possible, we did the push ups after that, I managed twenty-four(24). We did the sit ups after that, we took the speed part and the agility part at the end. We managed to finish the sheet.

16.03-2012 MYP C and D are having a vollyball match in the hall so  we can't use it therefore we got a sheet were it said Time, Pulse and RPE. we are going to half around the f jord(we are going up to the roundabout and back. We had three  checkpoints: one at Rema 1000, another one at a small red  house halfway and the last one at the roundabout. When we come  to these checkpoints we fist see how long time we've  used. Then we check our pulse, and then we dicide which  level we are at on the RPE chart. I went going with  Majury, we went two rounds. It was relly nice to be  able to just take a nice and quiet walk round the  fjord, can't wait til Unicefday. ^.^

Reflection on Fitness In this unit we have done fitness testing. We have done bleep test, agility test, reaction test, etc. We have also done a circit, in a circit you have lots of activities for different bodyparts placed in a  circle shape.

13.04-2012 Today we started the lesson in our classroom HH1. There are students who forget or just don't bother to write their reflections on our lessons. Mr.Richard wanted to talk about that and to show us abit about wikispaces. We were told to write a reflection on our unit "fitness" so far. My reflection is above. Close to the end of our P.E. lesson we went to the hall were we were divided into three groups: 1. The girls, 2. Grade 8 boys, 3. Grade 7 boys + Zac. Mr.Richard was going to orginaze us in different ways while we were standing on a bench and we were not allowed to touch the ground, if we did touch the ground we had to sit down for I think it was 10 or 5 seconds. It was a really fun activity but it ended quick because the lesson was over.

04.05-2012 Today we were told to not bring our gym kit because we were going to be  in our classrooms working on our handwritten assignment. We were to finish a booklet and make a A4 poster. I finished my booklet on our P.E. lessons, I also finished my A4 poster. It was about "How to live a healthy life". In my poster I also included what I do to live a helthy life, on mondays and wednesdays I have handball, on thursdays I normally have swimming and in the weekends I'm in a club called " Ti-Toppern" were we climb different mountains and have a good time. In the lesson Majury and I were also explaining abit about what we do in the P.E. lessons to our soon to be new student Oda. ^.^

01.06-2012 Today Mr.Skulie very kindely learned us handball in gym because Mr.Richard don't know so much about handball. It was really fun, we did many different activities, but I diden't like the part were I got shoot in the leg by a handball and fell on the ground and got a really bad wound. I also got my grade's for the last unit we had(fitness), I got 6/8 and 8/8. :D I really hope we can learn more about handball because it's my favourite sport. ;)

__** Grade 8 **__ 27.08-2012 Mr.Richard told me that I also should write in my blog things I do outside of school too, so I'm going to write somethings I did in the summer. Well my mum and grandparents really love to go for a walk or just being in the nature and so do I, first in the summer my grandfather, my mum, my sister and I went to  a national park called "Rondane". There we walked for three days. We started at the station "Øvre dørålseter" then walked 22 norwegian kilometers(20,200 meters) to the next station called "Bjørnhollia". That was really long and I was really tired when we got there, then we walked 16 norwegian kilometers(16.000 meters) from "Bjørnhollia" to "Rondvassbu" and the last day we walked 11 norwegian kilometers(11.000 meters) from "Rondvassbu" to the last station that was "Øvre dørålseter". So we walked in a triangle. And when we came home from the trip we finished a card that is listed 37 different mountain topps and I had finally walked 30 of them so i got a gold medal. So not to brag but I feel really proud of myself for achieving so much this summer. :) Today we started a new unit. We had our first PE lesson in the gym today.  We were for most of the time outside playing something I think was  called "rounders". It was really fun though I only got to try and hit the  ball one time. But Mr.Richard told us that we had to practise on  our throwing and catching. So I hope i'll be better next time.

03.09-2012 Today we also played rounder but we practised on throwing and catching the ball first. We did a couple of activities before we started the game. I'm not sure which team that won but I mean that both teams did great, they were much better in hitting the ball thrown by the bowler.

17.09-2012 Today Ahmed did our warm up, he was suppose to do it weeks ago but he didn't so he is doing it today. I think it was a game sort of inspired og "rounders". It was very alike. In this game you are suppose to throw the ball and then shoot it and run to the top of the course and stay there but if you think you have good enough time you can run back to the end of the course, then you get double points. It was fun but you got tiered quick because we were so few and we ran across the longest length of the course. After the warm up we started to play rounders, first we had teams but then Mr.Richard said that we were going to have batting pairs so two people were batting and the res were fielding. I like playing when we are two teams much better, it's more fun.

24.09-2012 Today we first played rounders for a while but it was a "couples rounders" so it was more fielders and less batters. It was fun though. After that we went inside and played rounders too. But since the gym was so small/little we did that when you have hit the ball with the batt you had to run to the end of the gym and if you had time you could run back again. To get people out you either had to catch the ball in the air or take the ball run after the batter and touch the ball with the ball, then theri out! It was really fun and I hope we can do it again.

Reflection on Rounders I really liked this unit because we got to play the game "rounders" and we practised throwing and catching a lot which is very useful for me because I play handball. I am also very pleased anout the assessment because it was so easy or I think it is easy because all we had to do was to write our blog. I really like writing this blog so it was pretty easy. :)))))) But sometimes it was very hot outside, I liked when we played inside because we had a new twist. I'm not sure about what was challenging, but hitting the ball with the batt using the tenninsball was a bit hard because the ball was so little. But I wish the unit was a bit longer so we could play a bit more inside though it was really nice to play outside when it was good weather.

29.10-2012 In the last couple of weeks we have been working on a dance that Oda knows from her old school. We really need to know this dance inside and out because we will be performing the dance in the lego competision. :/ It's going slow but I think we will manage it. It's a really cool dance, or i think so but Ahmed and some others don't and they think it's to hard so they are going to make a danced themselfs. I'm løooking forward to see their dance and if it's better than ours. We are also using our freetime to work on the dance so it better be worth it. :) like this unit so far and hope it continues like that. ^.^
