Today students worked hard on completing the culminating math activity on decimals and on completing their winter scene pastel arts project. We also had an extra PE period where we worked specifically on improving our shooting technique in basketball. We learned that people need to practice skills correctly an in order to master them and that getting specific FEEDBACK and applying it right away is very important. By practicing shooting a basketball with 1 hand instead of two and allaying FEEDBACK we saw many student improve very quickly. NBA & WNBA watch out! |
