11PEA_1.1 Assessment_ Childhood games

• Explain the physical activity you participated in.

The physical activity I participated in was a bunch of childhood games. There were several games to be played such as hop scotch, leap frog, skipping, handball and octopus. We started off playing leap frog after we had split into two equal teams and we raced to the end and back by leaping over each other and we ended up winning it was a very different and quite humorous. Next we had played octopus as a whole class it was a pretty average but still fun game of octopus. Then we were free to do any of the activities without being in a group even though every one just instantly went to go play handball same with me. it was pretty fun.
