Britney @ Greymouth High School

This week we learned about the game's Korfball and Kabaddi. Korfball is a game which is similar to Netball and Basketball, Korfball first started in 1902 by a Dutch school teacher from Amsterdam. Kabaddi is a game that first started in India. These days Kabaddi is being played in many different ways.

Today in music the 2 Music Techniques that I will be working on is the strum of our song that I am learning and playing in time with Sophie. With the strum I know it I just need to play it right and not play it to fast or too slow. With playing in time I need to work on is getting to more my fighters fast to keep up with Sophie so that we can play in time. We changed the strum that we were working on so that I did a loud strum and Sophie did little but fats strums and today was the first day that we played the song right. With the chances,  I just play the cored once and Sophie played it 8 times and it worked out because I am not as good as playing as she is.
