Monday, 15 May 2017

My brother’s and I  have been running across the beach for a few minutes now, chasing each other and playing tag too.
Until we see a stray dog playing with the waves of the sea as it comes in and out.
So we pretty much do what kids do when they see a dog, run to it and pat it.
As we walk ( run ) to the dog something didn't feel right because instead of minding its own business it started to walk towards us as if we were is owner calling to it.
As we got to the dog It was like the fluffiest thing in the world but again that was strange too because it had just been playing in the water.
But the dog was friendly so that was what the good thing was about and that was why I stayed and played with it but it is also why I should have left too.

The tent was as hot as an oven by the time everyone woke up only because we had stayed up late last night playing spotlight.
In fact, when everyone went out of the tent they were puffing like it was the last breath we ever had.
“ MUM!!!” screamed Michael “you need to open the tent right up so the cold air can flow through”
“ Shut up Michael You Are Going To Wake Up The Whole Campground !!!” I whispered loudly.
“ You can open the door from the inside of the ten you two, you don't need me and you can be as loud as you like because it 11 o'clock and I sue everybody it's up. Mum says from the other side of the tent.
After that Michael walks from his deflated bed that had not be taped up properly to the tent door and opens it.
Once he opened the door I sprinted as fast as  I could to get fresh air and a nice cold drink of water.

As we strive for fresh air I grabbed a nice cold drink of water. As I look up I spot a black and white figure in the distance crouching low in the bushes as if it was stalking me.
It talks me a few seconds to realise this but when I did I stretched out like a little mouse running away from a cat.
The homeless dog that we saw yesterday had been watching everything move we do. As he was doing that he was also munching on a huge raw slice of french meat.

“NIAMH what-what was that for!” screamed my brother.
“What was what for?” I replied as I asked him I realised that I had spilt water all over my brother when I screamed, and he didn't look so happy about it.
“Sorry I didn't mean to”
“ well if you didn't mean to then why did ya scream?” He asks with curiosity.
“Because you know that dog we saw yesterday”
“Yeah. the one that was soft as the clouds”
“ yes, that one well if you look straight ahead of you in the bushes you will see him. But do not go over there.”
“Why?” he asks”
“You will see why”
He gasped as if it was the last breath he will ever have.
After breakfast, I look over to the dog again but this time there's a man there with a sharp knife patting the dog and watching us too.

Aim of the game: To get the least points and get no balls in your square

Game Adaptations
Use your creative thinking to explore possible adaptations to this game to enhance both the fun factor and the ability to win the game. I have given you one example for each category but challenge yourself with other ideas and thinking.


Attack
Defence
Game Plan/Strategy
  • Use balls other than netballs that aren’t as heavy so the speed of the travelling ball also speeds up the game.


  • I think that netball’s or dodgeballs will be fine because they are not too heavy and don't hurt.
  • 4 players from each squad are allowed to sit on the bleachers to stretch with their arms and intercept flying balls.
  • There are people standing outside of their square and getting any ball that  does go out of their square.
  • People on the perimeter of the quad pass the ball to someone closer to the bleaches to allow them to throw it further into the opponent's area.

  • You have a time out half way through the game to think of a strategy to get the other team points.
