LO2- Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process. // LO4-Show commitment and perseverance in CAS experiences. Students can articulate the stages from conceiving an idea to executing a plan for a CAS experience or series of CAS experiences.
This is an activity that occurs once a week for 1.5 hours where a group of girls from 11th and 12th grade get together to play netball. It is before the competitive season begins so it is merely a chance to develop new skills and get used to the game. I have played netball in the past a little but never at a competitive level.
I believe this activity achieves LO2 because it has been a long time since I’ve played a competitive team sport. I know that I work a lot better alone which means this will be an opportunity for me to refine my collaboration skills. Furthermore I am quite nervous to work in a team because I know I am not great at sports and I am worried my level will not match up and I could potentially let my teammates down. This is going to be a challenge for me in terms of learning the sport itself but as well as giving myself an opportunity to grow and become comfortable with my abilities.
I believe this is also an accurate activity for the first part of LO4 because I will have to attend this activity weekly. I know there will be times when I am lazy to stay after school or even scared because of the skill level, but I will have to stay resilient and show up to trainings in order to improve.
I am excited to see my progress after a while!
