Flexibility

On Monday we got a box and a piece of wood we tested our Flexibility. Last week on Friday I got positive 5 and to day I got positive 8 and that is better. The main Muscles we are trying to do is our ham strings, Lower  back, Calf and Arms. We did a positive side and a negative side that is 30 cm big. I think that I can make a change in my Flexibility if I keep doing my stretches that we are doing and I should improve each time we do it.

Monday	Positive 5

My Egg Drop

How it works

The experiment worked because the gravity pushed the egg in the cupful of water. We put it on a toilet paper roll, plate then a cup full of water. You have to put the toilet paper roll on the the absolute right spot otherwise it will not work but you have to pull it quick because the motion will go good and if you do it slow it will lose its balance and hit the cup or ground.

Rugby

RUGBY

I chose rugby over pizza because rugby is fun and anyone can play it. People will give me questions and I will respond to them in a small paragraph saying what I would like to be and what else I would rather do in the great game of rugby.

1. What sport  would you do instead of rugby ?-Crystal.

2. What rugby team do you wish to play for-John.

3. Where are you hoping your rugby career will go?- Rhys.

4. When you are older will you become a rugby player? Charlotte.

5. Do you wish to take a career? and be an All Black?-Georgia.

Rugby is my favourite sport because it is really active and a bit dangerous but my second option would be Cricket because it can be really fun when you get people out.  It feels really great and you also get to have a bat.

Maybe if I get to chose a super 15 team it would probably be the Crusaders because they are a good team with a lot of team spirit and they play to the rules without arguing if they don't think thats illegal they just carry on.

Some time in my life if I do get a rugby career like being a Magpie or an All Black player I would like to travel around New Zealand and the rest of the world because you get quite a lot of fans and they always cheer you on.

I would like to be a professional rugby player because you would make very good mates and you get a great atmosphere as all players do.

Yes I would because it would be really cool representing my country in a game of rugby. My family will be very proud as they always are and it would be really cool.
