Starting of new unit! ***imo Olympics.

Today was the first P.E lesson in 2016! 

We have started with the new P.E unit and its...Eskimo Olympic Sport (?). It went way better than I expected and I really enjoyed it. I find it interesting to look into a sport from another culture. We had around 10 different activities that Dywer set for us. Most of them were without equipment apart from mats. I found most of the hard and requires practice, well everything does. My favourite one was the Seal Jump. It did hurt my knuckles and it the day after I was sore but I still enjoyed it. I managed to go far and I wasn't expecting it. I think it was a great workout. 



  1. Make a plan for how you are going to get better at the sports you were introduced to for the Eskimo Olympics. What is your plan for improving your physical performance and health? Please explain. How effective is your plan going to be? Explain the challenges and how you are going to overcome these.

    I am planning on first looking at videos and doing some research on how they are performed correctly. I want to get a better look a them first. I will also be practicing at home and noting down how far I have come so I can improve. I also want to eat healthier, maybe. I will be setting goals and probably noting them down.

  2. What do you learn about the Eskimo culture by playing their sports? What could someone learn about your culture from your sports?

    By playing their sports we can learn a lot about their skills and how they did their daily challenges, like hunting. We can learn about how they managed their lives and if the sport helped them, which they probably did. Like how here in Norway skiing is one thing that brings people together and how its apart of their routine.
