CONTINUE THE CRICKET!

Hello, amazing people, today I am posting the final writing for the rules for Continuos Cricket. I would like to thank my friend(s) for giving great feedback to improve my writing/rules. I have edited the rules and added more rules. Anyways here is my final draft!
Continuous Cricket Rules

Written by: Lyan De Guzman

Object

The object of the game is by hitting the ball and running, your team must get more than the other team.

Players

The class is divided into two groups.

Equipment

We are using the following Kiwi Cricket equipment:
  • 2x bats
  • 2x balls
  • 1x full wicket set (a stand and 3x wickets)
  • 2x spare wickets
  • 1x wicket stand

Scoring

Once you hit the ball, you must run into a side, you also need to return before the ball is thrown to the wickets. So that the batter won’t hit the wickets, and that means you won’t be able to go out.

Winning

You can win by getting the most runs, even if you did not hit the ball you can still run.

Rules

  • You can get someone out by catching the ball (if hit) on the full, or if the ball bounces once you have to catch it with one hand.
  • You have to switch the baller (the person who throws a ball) and the batter.
  • The teams must be divided and have an equal amount of students.
  • You must run even if you don’t hit the ball.
  • You have to run one way.
  • You have to throw underarm.
  • There has to be a wicketkeeper and a baller, each has to change to let everyone play.
  • The batting has to be at least 2-3 metres away.
  • The bowler must stay in the balling place, while the other players get the ball to pass to the baller.
  • If you get 3 people from the batting team out the batting team and bowling team must swap, and if the bowling team gets 3 people out from the batting team they again have to swap positions.
  • If you run you must put your bat over the wicket which is laid on the ground on each side of the main wickets.
  • Make sure to have fun!
  • Everyone must commit to playing the game.
  • If your team gets out and get back again you must stay in your previous position.
  • The winning team is the people who have the most runs.
  • Only the bowler can get the batter out.
  • To get the bowler out quicker, the fielding team must quickly get the ball and pass it to the bowler.
  • The fielding team must spread out so that they can catch the ball and get the batter out easier.
  • The bowler must be 7 metres away from the batter.
Reflective Comment: I personally think I did a good job with remembering all the rules and describing how to win, score and the objective of the game. Though the feedback wasn't enough (for me) I still think I have improved just a little bit.

Cricket Continuous?

Hello lovely people, I am very sorry to say that you have to see another post but here we are and there will be more. Anyways I have been lazy, but I'm alive, anyway, for today's post I will be telling you about the rules for Continuous Cricket.

So basically what I am saying is we have to retell the rules, how to win, objective of the game, how many players in a team, equipment, and how to score. For the writing, we had to do procedure writing and basically, that means write how the games work and procedure of the game.

Anyways here is my writing/first draft, it basically like filling out an answer sheet. If you know any more rules about Continuous Cricket, please do not hesitate to comment and tell me your feedback.

Reflective Comment: I think I did with remembering some of the rules, since a tenth of it are added things from my teachers list. But on top of that, I think I did  a good job. Next time I should have a more descriptive sentence.

My Special Gift

W.A.L.T:  Write a narrative



Success Criteria
I know I will be successful when….


  • The title is suitable for the text.
  • The orientation tells who the story is about, and when and where the story happened.
  • The complication describes a problem and explains what happened next.
  • The resolution explains how the problem was solved.
  • Seeks feedback and makes changes to texts to improve clarity and meaning.


In Ako Ngatahi we had to write a narrative about a video. It was about a boy opening a present that was a dog with three legs. Here is the video of the present. I hope you enjoy my story.




My Special Gift

It was Saturday morning I just woke up from my amazing dream, I brushed my teeth and I took a bath.  I went downstairs to eat breakfast, “Mmm bacon and eggs.” I said. After I ate my breakfast I rushed downstairs to play my favourite game.  I closed the blinds because it was so bright.

I opened the t.v and started playing with my xbox, then my Mum came in with a box, “Darling would you stop playing and open the present.” she said.   She opened the blinds, It was really bright. I just realized that my mum had a new haircut and some new clothes.

Ring!!! Ring!! The phone is ringing.  My mum answered “ Hello!”  When she was gone I opened the box then suddenly a puppy popped out. The dog had a big black nose and a cute face, I picked him and I was really disappointed and angry for a moment there, because he had only 3 legs.

I threw the dog in the ground. Because I didn't want a dog that has three legs.  Then he saw a ball under a table he rolled it to me, but I kicked it to the box, the dog chased after it he crashed into the box he couldn’t see anything. He bumped  to the drawer near the T.V I kinda laughed because he was so silly and funny.

He brought the ball really quickly to me.  I realized that you don't have to perfect.  So I picked the ball and I grabbed my crutches and I put the ball in my pocket.  Me and my dog walked to the door and opened it and I said to my mum that me and my new dog were going outside. It was good to have a friends that was just like me.

I learnt to never judge someone by how they look.
