Period 6 General PE

Due Date: Tuesday, November 22nd

We are starting our second week of volleyball and I thought our first week went well. I hope it was obvious to you that individual skills in volleyball are important to make the game more enjoyable. I want you to evaluate yourself and your abilities. For your blog this week, let me know what skill in particular you need to work on and what you plan on doing to improve that skill.

    A skill I need to improve is my communication with other teammates, I'm improving this by trying to tell my teammates that I'm going for the ball.

    I feel that i am able to play volleyball and also able to work well with my teammates. i believe that my most significant is my serving. i am going to try and keep hitting my wrist against the ball and not hitting the ball against my palm which i think is the reason why the ball keeps fading left.

    For some reason I'm just having a lot of trouble setting. It always rolls of my finger tips and kind of goes behind me. To improve I just want to keep playing like normal so I can practice setting more. Staying in the front might help. :)

  5. I plan to work on that by having better communication with my teammates and focusing on setting during the warm up

    One skill I need to work on is my "bumb." When I hit it the ball sometimes goes behind me because I am not aiming it correctly. To improve this skill I am going to work on my hand positions and practice a lot more with my team.

  7. The skill i need to improve on is serving, im not very consistent with it. To improve on this skill i can try to be more slower when i serve or i can try doing the underhand serve more often.

    I need to improve on my serves. I am working on them by practicing at home with my volleyball.

    I had trouble bumping and serving
    But I have been experimenting different serves and have been able to get more over the net so continuing practicing my serve will help.
    At first I was afraid to bump because it hurt my arms but the slight plain doesn't bother me anymore and once again continuing practicing will only help

    The skill I need to work on is setting. The ball frequently goes behind me or it just goes straight up into the air. I plan on improving this skill by making sure I stand in the front more so I can practice setting the ball.

    The skills that I am planning to work on is serving. I can never get the ball over the net. To fix this, I need to serve in a upward motion, having my fist hit the ball so it goes upwards because my serves usually have a downward motion.

    I need to improve my movement in the game because sometimes when the volleyball comes over the net everyone just watches it fall to the ground. To improve my movement and swiftness but still maintain a controlled power in bumping and setting the ball, I have to "Warm up" or run around.

  14. Skills in volleyball I would need to work on more would be setting and over hand serving. How I plan to improve these skills is by practicing more.

    I need to work on setting.
    Throw the ball at the wall and keep setting the ball.
    Have someone surf the ball to me and try to set it back.

    A skill that I need to work on is moving to the ball. I can improve this by running to the ball when it comes over the net. I also need to impove my serving, bumping, and setting.

  17. I need to work on serving more consistently. Sometimes when I serve the ball, it goes too high and hits the ceiling or it goes off to the side and out of bounds. To improve this skill I am going to practice making sure that I hit the center of the ball with my fist and take my time, when I serve underhand.

    I need to work on my communication. I let to many balls go over my head and not tell my team that I am doing so. The only way to improve such is calling out if I will take it or not.

  21. The volleyball skill I need to work on the most is aiming the ball, in general. I will improve this by practice, keeping my eye on the ball, using the correct body position, and taking small steps to get underneath the ball.

  22. The skill I feel I need to improve on is serving. I sometimes mess up and don't get the ball over the net. I can improve this by my technique, I need to hit the ball with more power and more fist and knuckles instead of hitting it with the palm of my hand, which gives no direction and less power.

    The skill that I need to improve in volleyball is my communication. I feel like if I called out when I want to hit the ball it will make me a more effective player so that is what I will work on to improve my performance.

    The skills I need to work on are setting and communicating with my teammates. To improve, I am going to tell my teammates that I'm going for the ball. Also, I'm going to practice my setting when we do warm up.

  26. The skill I feel i need to improve on is my serving. I sometimes mess up and dont get the ball over the net. I can fix this by working on my technique, hitting the ball with more fist and power, instead of slapping it with my palm.
