My topic is about sports
ReplyDeletePlaying sports is one of my favourite hobbies.When I play sports I feel energetic and confident that I'll win. Passing the ball to my teammates is something I'm capable of. Happy is how I feel after scoring a goal. If I score a goal in a difficult match I'm proud of myself since I train at home. Rapidly I grab the rocks and pull myself up to reach the top of the mountain when I'm rock climbing. Watching me play football is my supportive family along with my loyal fans. Smashing the ball over the net and scoring a point is what I do best.

My topic is gymnastics.
ReplyDeleteInstead of doing the vault, I decided to try going on the beam. Cautiously, I approached the apparatus. Just like a wobbly jelly, I nervously jumped onto the the end of the beam. Placing one foot in front of the other, I began walking towards the other end. The beam seemed so narrow and I was afraid I might fall off. Like a tightrope walker I used my arms to balance.
