thursday post

i had my final pe lesson with my form class, and for their final pe lesson they have to present a gymnastics sequence, based on what i had taught them. 


so these are my criteria for the gymnastics sequence:
- must have locomotion (walk, run, jump, skip, hop)
- must have pathways (straight, zig zag, curved)
- must have the 4 basic shapes (long, wall, ball, twisted)
- must have the 4 basic rolls (puppy, log, forward, backward)
- must have cartwheel
- must have a finale pose
- duration is 1 to 2 min


of course they can choose their own music. 


without further ado, let me introduce the groups:

Group Name: Racial Harmony (originally they call themselves Malay United because the group has only malay boys. being their form teacher of course i must encourage racial harmony so i persuaded/forced two chinese boys to join their group.)


Song: Secrets by One Republic

Group Name: Alfred and the chipmunks (this name was thought by yours truly and the rest of the group members immediately agreed to it except for Alfred. hahahahahaha.)


Song: Bad Day (chipmunks version)

Group Name: Cute Carrot Cake (this was from them. i play no part in this.)


Song: Halo and Walking on sunshine (Glee version)

Group name: Alpha One (i think they want to get A1s for their exams...)


Song: some japanese anime soundtrack

Group Name: Two Tigers (because two of them born in year of tiger, one born in year of ox, one born in year of mouse, so majority wins...)


Song: roly poly

Group Name: Dirty Heroes (their gym sequence consists of superman and spiderman actions. dirty because of obvious reasons, and at such a young age, i worry for them...)


Song: An Bu Neh Neh (there is really such a song! it is damn funny! i gave them the highest grade because they are really outstanding, and together with the humour element in the song, really win the other groups. hahaha.)

Group Name: Twilight (their theme is on zombies... at the start of the sequence one is human being and the rest are zombies. then at the end of the sequence the human being kenna attacked by the zombies and the human being also became a zombie... seriously wassup with them... shouldnt the human being save them and all become human beings and live happily ever after??!!)


Song: Run the World by Beyonce

cannot expect them to do a super professional gym sequence, and they really have all the elements that i wanted, so i am really very very proud of them, and at least they dared to move and they enjoyed it! because alot of students are very shy when it comes to movement education and they will feel awkward... but thank goodness everybody in my form class all very onz. :)


i am glad that i managed to inculcate the "performing" culture in them. hahahaahaha. and i think the "lameness" culture too, judging by some of the group names. :p


btw watch this gym sequence. this is really ZAI!!!
