Hello everyone again!
Today I want to talk about a new sport
that Karisto School students have been practicing. It is called "PESÄPALLO" and typical in
Finland. Although it has got some resemblance to baseball because in both
sports you must bat and it has bases, “PESÄPALLO”
has got different rules.
I've made a few pictures to 4th level students
while playing...
Do you see the position of the pitcher? He is
not opposite, but next to the batter. This is one of the many
differences that this Finnish sport has with baseball.
When I
come back to school I will explained you well because it is difficult from so
far away. Anyway, I am sure that you will like a lot and Diego also... Here you
are a link so you can watch a video and get a better idea.
Another game that I have learned is
the "MÖLKKY" also
originally from Finland, and although as I saw for the first time, it
remembered me our bowls, it has a very different form and the rules are also
different...
The pieces are made of wood and as
you can see have carved numbers. You have to reach 15 points. But I think it is
better... if I tell you when I am
back! We could do ourselves the pieces! The one which does not carry a number
is used to throw.
Here you are another video for better understanding
the game.
We will adapt these games to
practice them at school and in different classes... I hope that you have enjoyed
the ideas!
By the way, Karisto School thank you for
the bookmarks that you did for them... so lovingly, they were fascinated!
I don't know you, but I've started
to train me for all the new games that we are going to do on my return...
One two!
One two!
With good weather, in Lahti, everybody
is with their bikes, running, walking with their dog... So it’s pleasant to do
sport.
Cheer up! Exercise is very good for
your health. If you don’t believe, you
can ask the Finnish children, having three hours a week of P.E., not like us, who
only have two. Here they know how important physical activity is.
Sven is outside running for a while;
I hope he does not get late home because it is time to go to bed, so many sport
helps to sleep better.
Read a lot...
So important is to cultivate not
only the body but the mind.
