Gymnastics Reflection:D

For our unit in PE, our grade was cut into half, and half of the people went to rounders, and the other half went to Gymnastics with Ms. Buehler.

First of all, in my group there was Layna, Mihaela and Tomoka. I am not very good at at gymnastics, and Tomoka said she wasn’t very good either, which made me feel nervous. But Mihaela and Layna were good, so I thought I did improve quite a lot during this unit.

Our team had three types of rolls, the regular front roll, the back roll and the log roll. Me and Tomoka did the front roll and the other two did the back roll and all of us together. Layna and Mihaela did the cartwheels, and we all did three balance pose in total. Then we had our individual poses, which me and Tomoka did the same of standing on one leg and balancing. We also did the vaults, and each one of us did three vaults.

I don’t think our movements were really “flowed” together, but I thought it wasn’t stiff or rigid, and I thought it was quite good. I also thought we could have more movements to match our song because our song was really loud, and it was a little furious.

I found the vault the most hard to do, and very challenging. At first, I kept on doing the belly flop, and I couldn’t swing my legs or anything at all. But I was able to improve because I tried to remember what everybody said to me, and I tried to do everything they told me to do.

I was able to overcome the challenge because I listened to everybody like I said on the top paragraph, and I also remembered to swing my legs, and ran faster before I jump. I think I was able to overcome because my teammates helped as well.

Even though I found the vault most challenging, I found it most fun and enjoyable at the same time. Maybe it was because I never usually have a chance like this, or maybe it is because I was pleased with the improvement I was able to do what other people could do.

Our team worked very hard all lessons to be good, and not make mistakes. But sometimes our concentration could go off that made us start laughing and not work so well. But the other times, we stayed quiet and concentrated on making our routine well.

I would like to improve on the last part, where we all gather a do the poses. I want to change it because I think it looks wrong, and I thought that we don’t look good or together like that. I also might change everybody’s poses since we all look a little awkward and weird in it. Otherwise, I am pretty sure it looks quite well done.
