Sportsmanship - On the Sporting Field and in Everyday Life

Sportsmanship to me means being positive to others and being cool when good or bad things happen. One way I have shown sportsmanship this year is by shaking the opposing team members hands and say "good game".

3 ways that you can demonstrate sportsmanship in PE or on the sporting field:
-Always play fair
-Accept the judgement calls of the coaches and the officials without argument
-Offer encouragement to teammates, especially when they make mistakes

2 ways that you can demonstrate sportsmanship in everyday life:
-Being positive
-Following instructions/rules

1 new way that you can demonstrate sportsmanship:
-Include my teammates more often

Special Effects


1. What special effect skill did you feel you best utilized in your 5x5? Which was special effect what the most difficult to incorporate?
I think that the slow motion really utilized the video. The hardest was cloning.

2. How did you brainstorm your story for your 5x5? Did you speak to some of your classmates or was it something you brainstormed on your own? How did storyboarding help your planning?
I saw a computer and it came to me, make a video on a stolen computer. We brainstormed it ourselves. It helped us not get lost and not think of ideas on the spot.
3. Describe what filming your 5x5 was like; did more work happen during filming or in post-production?
It was fun filming and more work was put in editing.
4. What other special effects would you have liked to have learned for this project? Why?
I am fine and I felt like we have covered all the special effects.

Personal Narrative Reflection

How have you grown as a writer?
I learned how to zoom and slow down on the moment. I also learned how to shorten down the less important parts of the story. More details on the moment, less on non-important stuff.

What new skills do you feel more confident to apply to your narrative writing?
I've learn how to make my leads better with a skill called SACRED seed leads. Each letter in sacred stands for a way to start your story. I also learned a skill called How Do I Do DAT. It's a way to make the body of the writing better. For the conclusion, we end with a "So What. These are 3 skills I feel more confident to apply to future narrative writing pieces.

What challenges did you face when writing your personal narrative?
When I first wrote the story, I didn't zoom into the moment. I had a lot of unimportant details. It was a bit of a challenge to focus on the moment.

How have you surprised yourself as a writer?
When I read my story, I had some emotional sentences. I didn't know I could write like that!

What feedback did you receive that will help you to grow as a writer?
I received a lot of constructive feedback. Most of the feedback told me to zoom in even more into the heart of the story.
