I am aware of my strengths and weaknesses in cross country running and I aim to develop this area of learning. (D4/5) 8/8

How did you feel were you able to utilize some of the mental strategies such as self talk into your running and understand the importance?

I think that I was able to go over mental things by not putting my watch on during running. I think that some people are able to keep it up looking at there time and seeing if they are going fast, but for me I think that not putting the watch on would make me faster because I have no idea of what the time is during running so I think that I should go more faster to get a better time. And I had not noticed that after I forgot my watch about in the 4th lesson.  So I think that I was able to utilize some mental strategies by not putting the watch on.

How much training we’re you able to do outside of your scheduled PE times?

I was able to practice running for about 3 times a week. And I ran about 2km each time. So I think that I did a good job of practicing outside of school too.

How seriously did you take your goal setting?

I think that I had not take the goal setting seriously at the start. I was just writing it because Mr. Noon said, but after 2 or 3 lessons I started to notice that goal setting was really important. I started to take goal setting seriously and tried to do it. I have finished my first goal but I was not able to finish my second goal, so I think that next time I should think of goal setting more seriously so I could finish my second goal too(finish under 10:00).

How do you think you performed during the whole XC unit?

I think that every time I was able to run my best at that time. I think that I was able to finish under 10:30 at the race because I had good practices.  But I think that I was able to run under 10:30 at least 1 more time and get a better time at the race.

I am aware of my strengths and weaknesses in cross country running and I aim to develop this area of learning.

I think that my strength is that when somebody is in front of me and they do not pace up I am able to stay with them. I think that my weakness is that I can not speed up whenever nobody is near me. I think that I can fix my weakness by mental, and how I think. So from next time I think that I should start my pace really fast from the start.

England

It was my first time going out of Japan, and I was a little bit scared, even though I was going to England with my family and friend, and another feeling was that I was excited. I had seen pictures of England saw I was able to guess what it looked like but I was not able to guess about the other 4senses. I went to the soccer camp and started the soccer practice. I was quite impressed that I could play regularly even out of Japan. There were few other people that were good but other than that the level was not that high. I think that I was able to be a risk taker? To go to England.

Tokyo JA cup

Last last Sunday, I had Tokyo JA cup which will lead us to the Tokyo tournament. We were playing against Vitoria Meguro. The game started and I was FW so I went for the ball. The other teams plyers got hasty and passed it back and back until the ball went to the DF I still went for the ball the DF also got hasty and passed it back I still ran for the ball the GK was only looking at me because he thought that I will get the ball and shoot it but I was not that fast so I was not able to catch up with the ball. Then the GK noticed that also so he went for the ball but he was too late the ball had been sucked into the goal. We had a lucky head start. We scored one more goal and it was 2-0. I think that most of our players and including me thought that we had won, but the game was not over yet from the other teams free kick I do not know what he thought but our DF used his hands and cached the ball. It was a PK. The other team scored that PK and it was 2-1. I think that everybody thought that it was in a bad mood. Everybody except me went back and defended, by doing that there was a big gap of me and the MF, so even we took the ball the we were not able to change it to attacking. Then the other team scored 2more goals and the other team won. After the game we reflected why we had lost and how we can change our mind to be third and go to the Tokyo tournament. So I think that at that point we were able to be reflective.

Holland

Last summer I went to Holland. I was a little bit worried that if there was nobody who can speak English how I was going to communicate with other people at the soccer camp.

Then time went fast and I was at the soccer camp. When I went there was nobody except our family. I went outside and everybody was there playing soccer volley ball. The coach thought that I could speak Dutch so he started speaking words that I do not know. Then I said that I can not speak Dutch and only speak English. Then the coach said if I wanted to play soccer volley ball. I said yes and started playing soccer volley ball with them.

After that real soccer practice had started. We first did ladder and I had went quite fast, then some of the people said that I was fast. After that we tried to remember people’s names. It was really hard pronouncing people’s names. After some practice we went to our rooms. People there got intrest of me that I was from Japan. They asked me a lot of questions about Japan. Even one day was not finished I became friends with the people in my room. I think that after I went to Holland I was able to be a better communicator not just talking and by using hands.

Camp at Kijimadaira F.C. Tokyo

Yokohama fc
This summer I went to Kijimadaira for F.C Tokyo’s soccer camp. It was really high level with the other advance schools from F.C Tokyo. Our team was called Doronpa from the F.C Tokyo Raccoon Dog. The first game we were against Yokohama F.C. I started as sub but from  the latter half I went in as a second top. The latter half started and at the start I was not able to get the ball but after a while I started to get the ball, a chance did not come but I started to hold the ball longer. After that the person at the top dribbled but got stuck I got the loose ball and shot it the goal keeper was out the goal a little bit so I scored. Now we were winning about 6-0. After that I was able to score from a similar way and it was 7-0, then we scored 2 more goals, but we got scored from a corner kick so it was 9-1. It was a good start for us

Kawasaki Frontale

This time I was on the pitch from the start so I was really happy. And FC Tokyo against Kawasaki was called kurashiko, which is a derby match and we are kids so it is called korashiko(KO means kid in Japanese). I was left half. It started with the other teams kick off. Soon as the game had started we were not concentrated that much and there was a fast player in the other team and they randomly kicked the ball and the fast player went to get the ball. He had took the ball from us and had scored. This was a pattern that had never happened to our team. We were getting a little depressed. There was much less communication for this game and there were a lot of misses. Then the other team scored one more goal and it was 2-0. After that we got more concentrated then the start and from my assist we had scored one more goal. And then it was half time. We had two changes from the start. Our coach said that “strong teams are teams that can win even though they were losing, so let’s be a strong team.”From this word I think that he is really knowledgeable, because after that he had changed our feelings and we had won! After that we had more communication and we were more concentrated and we had more power in our play. We had scored 4more goals and only let the other team score 1goal.

Investigate Reflection

Screen shot 2010-11-11 at 2.55.57 PMIn the past we have brainstormed, Researched , practice using this blog, and right now reflecting on it. From research I have learned a lot of the basic things about this blog. From Brainstorm I had thought what I should write. By doing the brainstorm I think that it is easier to write some blog posts, because we already have a idea of something that we have to write about. After that we have started practicing, using the blog after the practice I am able to use this blog easier.Screen shot 2010-11-11 at 2.49.24 PMI think that being organized in the blog is really important because the reader can read it easier and look at it easier. If we make it organize it would be more work but it would be good that the reader can look and understand better. And another one is eye catching so it would take the readers attraction. And by making it colorful it would not be dark and unique. And I think that frequent update is the most important one because if there is not that much post there is no meaning of the other ideas and the brainstorms.
