Ambidextrous level 1

Creativity+Action

After a week of practicing my left hand is now more or less able to write the english alphabet and some easy words.
As you can see on the left of the page there are some of the practices that I have been doing so far. Fun fact- in the sentence"The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog" every letter in the alphabet has been used. This makes it a good sentence to practice because all of the letters must be written out.
It is clear that some of the letters are still a bit wiggly and not up to standard, but at least now it is recognisable which means a successful progress!
I will try to post more about my progress and my next goal is to write a small paragraph of text about myself.


In ambidextrous training I have achieved:
-undertaking new challenge
-be aware of my strengths and weaknesses
-develop new skills (one day my left will substitute my right)
-showing perseverance and commitment to the activity  

Did I tell that my group won an award?

Creativity+Service

It's a bit late but nevertheless my group won an AWARD!!(alongside other group)
As I mentioned before there was a challenge for us to make a mission statement for our school linking with IB learner profile. Two of my friends and I have composed a mission statement which has been recognised by the school's committee of teachers and has been chosen as one of the best.
 From this activity I found out that collaborating with others is really fun and surprisingly progressive. I would never come up with such a good piece of work by myself and I truly thank them for this matter.
 I would like to participant in more of those challenges to show my potentials as an IB student. I also delivered a little acceptance speech when my group was receiving the awards. It has been a good practice for me on public speeches and it is clear, that I have many things to improve on. Nevertheless it was a good day of my semester.

Here is my certificate!

Basketball Week 13!

Action

This week we are back to normal full court games which is awesome. However less people came this week which cause us to split into three teams which was fine for everyone. The games were pretty dynamic after few weeks of half court drilling sessions.
 I felt that I played much better than few weeks ago. The movement and passing awareness has improved but still a bit lacking on shooting accuracy and re-bounce timings. Those are the things I will be working on and hope next session I will be a better teammate and a player :D
Like always here is the video:

Possible outcomes achieved:
-awareness of strength and weaknesses
-worked collaboratively with my teammates
-showed perseverance and commitment to basketball
-developing new skills
