Run Jump Throw

Today we had fun at Run, Jump and Throw. This is my collage that I created about Run Jump and Throw. We had to use techniques that we learnt last week and we had to use it for running like athletes. We had to run in a straight line, stand tall, eyes focused on the front, light feet and check to check.When you run you need to use high knees and you have to stay focus and look in front of you and do not look at the other runners beside you. There is a difference between Long distance and short distance starts. Long distance starts say on your marks and Gun sound!!. Short distance runner starts say on your marks set and CLAP!!. They don't say on you marks set go for long distance runner because they just line up and then they are already ready. Short distance runner stand 1 meter behind the block. Then they walk to their blocks and then Andy says on your marks set and the gun fire sounds and that is the difference between long distance runner and short distance runners.
