Games and my Hauora- Water Pong

 

Questions and tasks Sentence starters (if needed )
  • Explain what the activity was that you participated in
Today we played water pong in health. 

The way in which you play this game is you have to get the ball in the cups. You will need 10 cups filled with some water and a ping pong ball. Then you get in a team, my class did this in groups of 2 or 3. The aim of the game is to get the ping pong ball in each cup, once it gets in a cup the cup gets taken away until there are no cups. The winners are the first team to get all of the cups moved to the side since they have had the ping pong ball in them. 

Some of the rules of this game are that you are not allowed to lean over the table to throw the ping pong ball. 

  • Which areas of Hauora were affected when you participated in the game?
The areas of hauora that were affected by participating in Water Pong were Taha Tinana (physical) and Taha Whanau (social). 
  • How were the areas of your hauora affected when you played the game?
My Taha Tinana (physical) was impacted positively during this task because it was a physical activity. My Taha Whanau (social) was also affected positively because we were in a group and we worked together. This activity was short term because it was less than 3 months and a short time. This was also interpersonal because it involved communicating with those in your team. 
  • Do you think that the values of social justice: fairness or inclusiveness and/or non-discrimination were shown today? How?
The social justice value of fairness, inclusiveness and Non discrimination was shown when we were doing this activity. fairness was shown as we all took turns throwing the ping pong into the cups. Inclusiveness was shown because we all made sure that everyone was getting a turn to participate. Non discrimination was shown because we all treated each other fairly and respectfully. 
  • How well do you feel that you participated in today’s activity? Why is that?
I did participate in today’s activity. This was because it is good to participate in activities and I am glad that I did because it was a fun activity. 
  • Explain how you’re managing with the water pong challenge.
I have been managing well with this challenge. I really enjoyed doing it.

The reasons for this are because I had a great group and we all took turns trying to get the ping pong ball in the cup. My group was really good because if someone missed the cup we would just laugh it off as a joke and keep going. 

How I can improve is by keeping being a great contributor.
