INTEGRATED STUDIES
According to Ilaisaane, Learning about the schools in the 1800s is very in« terestíng. It is very different from our classroom today. The students are only at school for three hours while we are at school for 6 hours. The punishment or consequences for rnísbehave is very different. They are Often hit by a Wooden spoon or ruler.

My mother is a loving, caring, warm hearted Mother. She also encourages others to go forward in their life and career .
In all my netball games my mother has always been there to cheer

Before getting into our skills
we all were very excited to meet two basketball player one of their names were coach Bruce and the other coach came late so we didn’t really had time to get his name.
After they finished introducing themselves we got straight into the skills that we learnt the first skill that i learnt was to dribble below your waist the second skill that i learnt was when you are shooting the ball all holding the ball the parm on your hands need to be like a gap between the ball and you hand . Just after learning both the skills we all had a little game that  had to do with the skills that we learnt.
Just after our games it was time to go back to class.
