Sports that we like - from the Swedish pupils


Here are some texts about our pupils favorite sports. They have been writing in english but some of them really wanted to use their french skills, so here it is!





My favorite sport.
My favorite sport is called Tennis.
Tennis is a sport called Racket sport and it can be two or one players each based on if you playing Single or Double.
If you´re playing double its two players at each side, one at the front and on at the back side.
If you´re playing Single it’s much the same as double but it’s only one player at each side.
Tennis is an Olympic sport and it was invented 1873 by the British major Walter Clopton wingfield. Tennis starting to get popular really quickly in Britain under 1880-sencuary.
The first champion ship was already at 1877 at Wimbledon.
When you’re playing tennis it is lines you have to follow, a net is between you and your opened and even more rules.
When you starting the game you beginning with doing a serve, then you opened have to catch the ball at the other side of the net but if the ball touches the net your opened gets one point but if the ball goes over and he misses you are the one getting points. If your opened catches the ball and punches it over to you, you also have to punch it with you rack or he gets the point and then it goes like that until the other player loses.
Another Sport I want to try.
There is more sports that is almost like tennis that is also racket sports like Badminton but there you can only be one to one(Single player) and you don´t have a ball instead you have a smaller ball with feathers on. You can be two players also, I think.
Snowboard
Snowboard is a sport that a like to do in the winter. if you want to try snowboard you need a board and the board are like a big ski. The shoes are also bigger example my normal shoe size is 38 but with the snowboard shoes they are 42. A started beginning with snowboard when I was 9 a think put that year did it not go so well. The second year a tried it didn’t go any different so that year gave up. Put on the fourth year a tried again and it didn’t go so bad but it ended with my giving up. Last year it worked and it ended with my going dawn black. What hard with snowboard is probably that when you want to turn right you need to lean back. If you want to go left you need too lean forwards or other way around. But what a think is the most hardest is to lean both way you often can one way but not the other way around. 
  
Ice hockey
Ice hockey is a team sport that’s played on ice.  You’re using ice skates, hockey stick and a puck that you are supposed get in the opponent’s goal. The winner of game is the team that has done the most goals.

The game field for NHL is 61 meters long and 26 meters wide, and IIHF (International Ice Hockey Federation) is 60 meters long and 30 meters wide. The goal is 122 centimetres high and 183 centimetres wide.

In a normal hockey match lasts for 60 minutes divided on three 20 minutes periods. There is a 15-18 minutes break in between the periods because the ice needs to be washed with an ice machine. Side change shall happen after the breaks. In between third period and overtime game, if it’s only 5-10 minutes overtime, they don’t wash the ice.

One team has 22 players under a match, 20 out players and 2 goalkeepers (or goaltenders). Only 6 players are allowed on the ice from each team, 5 out players and 1 goalkeeper is most usually. Each team has one team captain and two assistants, first and second assistants, which the team has decided. The first assistant is the team captain if the team captain is not on the playfield and the second is going to be the team captain if the first assistant is not on the playfield. Visible on their chest they were a “C” (as in captain) or an “A” (as in alternate). The team captain is the only one that is allowed to questioning the match judge and no one of the other players.

All of the players have protection on their legs, shoulders, elbows, teeth, use gloves and helm to example. The goalkeeper has different things on like a helm with bars, bigger protection on the legs, one glove for the hand that holds the hockey stick and one that is for to catch or block the puck. All players have ice skates and hockey stick, the goalkeeper’s hockey stick is wider down on the stick then what the out players have.

The players are in different positions and duties for each player. You do that because the team shall be organized and have good teamwork. It’s usually 2 defensemen, 2 forwards and one in the centre. Together they form one “chain”, “fiver” or formation. Each team have at most 4 chains on the line-up (first-, second-, third- and forth-chain).

Defensemen
It is usually one right- and one left-defenseman in every fiver. The defensemen shall be placed at the back and should mainly be concentrating at the defence.
Forwards
It is usually one right- and one left-forwards in every chain. The forwards shall be placed at the front in the chain and should concentrate at attacking. If three forwards plays together in mainly defensive tasks it is called a “Checking line”.

Centre
A centre is one type of forwards that’s should be placed in the centre of the chain, in the middle of both it’d owns forwards and defensemen. Centre has the duty to steer its chains play. It is one centre per chain normally.
Goalkeeper (or goaltender)
It is 2 goalkeepers per team, one first- and one second-goalkeeper. The first goalkeeper can be on the playfield the whole match and the second get to sit as a replacement. The first goalkeeper self or the team captain can chose to replace the first with the second if to example the first have let in to many goals under the match. The same if the first get injured or deported.
Judge
There is one head-judge and two lines-judges on every match, they were black trousers, a black helm and a striped black-white sweater. The head-judge has an orange band on each arm. In NHL and Elite series they have two head-judges and two lines-judges every match.

Börje Salming
Il était un très bou joueur et il a joué 17 ans a NHL. Il était suédois qui est nommé dans l’Hockey Hall of Fame.

Saint Gabriel - Bordeaux in France


Saint Gabriel in Bordeaux



We are a mainstream primary school with almost 500 pupils from the age of 3 to 10 years old.



The school is in the city center of Bordeaux, South-West of France.
There is a specialized class called "CLIS Capucine" with 6 pupils.

There is in the school building a gymnasium that we used weekly to practice any kind of motricity, play games with balls, ...





Pupils really enjoy playing with balls even if sometimes it's difficult to play all together!

In January, every thursday, we'll go for horseriding. We are very excited even if we are a little afraid to get close to those big animals.

In october, to celebrate the start of the year at school, all the people from Saint Gabriel: teachers, headmaster, parents and pupils met in a public park for a cross running. 

It's difficult to run 500 meters with no stops... So we trained with older pupils who were volunteers and during the event, they helped us by running with us.


It was a nice sporting moment of sharing! And we did very well, so the headmaster gave us a special diploma. We were very proud.



     Lucia-greetings
