Week One

Entry 1

Today was the second time that we played soccer. i felt that i was communicating effectively because when i called to caleb to pass me the ball i was able to receive the ball then kick it to lachie who scored a goal! i also feel that i was good at supporting and encouraging others because when jacob missed the goal i gave him a warming pat on the back and told him that it was okay that he missed the goal. I feel that i was able to give positive feedback to both my team and the oposition. and they without a doubt were able to return the favour. i think that i could have improved my skills by being more positive when we missed the goals and lost some of our games.

Entry 2

today marks the third time that me and my team of 5 played soccer, today we had all of the 5 team players present witch without a doubt made it a lot easier to lock in 2 wins and 2 draws, this is our best result our team has been able to make in a single lesson. i think that i was able to give my team positive feed back when we had not so good games as well as the good games, which is an improvment from last week. i felt that i was able to comunicate effectively which helped us win the games that we did. the support and encouragement towards our team from our apponents was all positive and our feedback was the same back to them. and thats why i was able to perform the way that i did. today i was able to score two goals, these were the first soccer goals that i have scored in my life! so it was really a good feeling to be able to do so. i think that we were are able to improve our teams communication to help us win more games in the future.

Week Two

Entry 1

today unfortunatly the only two players that were able to make it to pe class in my team was only me and jacob. the first game we played was just me and jacob, we gave it our all but it was not enough to keep our loose less streak alive, the second game mr darkins was nice enough to join the team. himself joining the team was enough for us to be able to draw the second game. the third game we played it was 3 against 5 so matt from the other team joined ours. this was not enough for us to win the game. we lost our second game of the day. for our last game we were lucky enough to keep matt and mr darkins. we drew for the second time today. even though the result of the games we played were not what me and jacob wanted we still were able to keep positive. even though the results were not what we wanted we still were able to give each other positive encouragement and good feedback to mr darkins and matt who were kind enough to join our team for the day, and even though we were at a disadvantage we were still able to communicate effectively and keep in good spirits. i think that we could of improved our performance by having our whole team there on the day.

Entry 2

Today was our 5th game of soccer and i was able to play the best soccer i have played. we were able to communicate more effecively than we have in the past which help us work better as a team. i was able to score both of the goals that i got by calling for the ball and it was passed to me. we gave both each other and the other teams positive feedback, win or loose and it helped our team happy and in a good mood. we supported each other when we missed the goals which helped us score others and supporrted ech other when we drew one of the games which was the first one then we were able to win the final two games of the day, i think we could of improved our overall performnce by being more onto it earlier and by winning the first game that we drew but i think for the most part we were positive about everything.

Week Three

Entry 1

today was our 4th last game and it was a great showing, we where able to combine all of our team to work as a solid unit and we were able to silitify our first clean sweep of wins. I think that the way were able to communicate effectively and support and encourage each other made all the difference in the out come on favour overall performance. We made sure to give all of ours and the opposing side good positive feed back. but i think the thing that helped us play better the most was by communicating very effectively and calling for the ball to get goals. i think that we could of improved our feedback to opposition when the lost their games and we bet them but other than that we played very effectively.

Entry 2

today was our last game of soccer for the week and it was important for our team to win every game otherwise we would be unable to contest for the win of the tournament the first game didnt go to well as we lost 2 to nil and we didnt seem to give each other much positive feedback. the next game we drew witch is more points than a loss so we were satisfied we were able to communicate efficiently witch made the game much easier, our last game of the day was against green team, we were able to win 2 nill witch was by far our best performance of the day. and i think that that was because we gave each other positive encouragement on the field. i think we could of improved ourselves by giving each other positive feedback. this would of helped us play better in the first game.

Week Four

Entry 1

this is the last week of the term, witch also means our last week of playing soccer. today we were able to call and communicate very well which would really help us win the first game of the day, after battling through our teams lack of motivation the week before we were able to dominate the first two games of the day leaving our opposition scoreless, but unfortunatly the last game we played aganist black was not as luxurious and we were un able to win but we still managed to give each other positive support witch will help us carry on to tomorrow. i think that we could of played better in the last game against black by communicating better and not making as many stupid mistakes.

Entry 2

today is our last time playing soccer and we are 4th on the overall points standings, our team will need to win every game if we wanted a chance of winning the tournament for soccer, we got off to an average start as we tied against the yellow team, but fortunatly our positive attitudes gave us what we needed to win the next two games, i was able to score 2 goals the next game both times from calling to caleb to give me the ball, this is the final game of the tournament and so far we are tied for two all, but amazingly caleb sprung out of goalie position and took the ball all the way up feild to score the winning goal. unfortunatly that was not good enough for us to win the tournament but we did finish 3rd out of 6 teams which isnt a bad result. the reason why we played so well was because of how well we were communicating and how we gae each other positive feedback throughout the season. i think that next time we play soccer we should work harder to play better as a team.
