2014 =** SWIMMING **= I HAVE LEARNT HOW TO DO A TUMBLE TURN AND KICK WITH A FLUTTER BOARD AND GET INTO THE POOL PROPERLY. MY STRENGTHS ARE FREESTYLE AND BACKSTROKE. I AM PROUD OFF HOW MUCH I HAVE GOT BETTER THIS YEAR =My Makino Instructor's Report= Derek shows great confidence in the water and has many of the swimming basics in hand. His next step with freestyle is to practice “rolling to breathe” and blowing his bubbles to the floor, so he can extend his distance before stopping. = = At the Triathlon I had fun playing with Tyler and Dylan when it was my race it was really hard when I was doing my run it was really hard to beat Tyler in the bike Because he is really fast and good it was hard doing the swimming because Tyler was catching up to me but I only just beat him in the running to the finish because Tyler was right behind me trying to beat me I only Just beat him over the finish line.

Triathlon My goal is not to go slow on the running. I will use my arms.

Swimming I did backstroke with flutter board. It felt easy because I floated better. This year I did freestyle and I came 3rd to last. This was not as good as last year because I came 3rd then. I am proud of Running in the water, it was fun. I enjoyed it because I was good at it. Next year I will practice my backstroke at school. My kicking is ok but my arms need balancing because I don't go straight.

2013 Swimming I can do freestyle, floating back.and back stroke.

I have achieved at FLOAT level kicking on front, kicking on back, freestyle arm action, backstroke arm action, freestyle arm action with kicking and backstroke arm action with kicking.

The Makino coach said, "Derek is doing so well. He has amazed me with how far he has come, from not wanting to be in the pool to doing everything that is required of him! He does freestyle very well. Well done Derek!"

Skiing,
Mum Pam Nikki Travis & I went to the mountain with Apiti School. When I got there we have to get our boots & Skis. I have a little go before me lesson because I forgot how to ski. I have a lesson and got better at skiing. I can jump, Ski fast and ski backwards. And I have fun skiing with my friends. I Love skiing.



Soccer This year I am proud of my kicking and my passing. My goal is to learn to dribble properly and 'stealing' the ball off the other team.. I will keep playing soccer and dribbling to get better. I am going to get into the game and not stay back.

Triathlon I found the triathlon fun. It was easy because there was nothing hard. I practiced for the triathlon by running around the whole school. I rode my bike to the domain once to train. I liked the team race best because I biked. Tyler did the run and swim. Next year I am going to run, bike and swim. I am going to practice my swimming and running.

swimming I liked diving into the big diving pool. The best part was diving from the small one because it wasn't that scary. In the big diving pool we did backstroke with the life jackets on. In the swimming pool we had to pick up the sinkers and we played a shark game. I got better at going in the diving pool. Next time my goal is to jump from the top diving board.

2012 Cross Country I trained for the cross country. I am a fast runner. <span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">I stayed behind Tyler and I got angry when I had to stay behind Tyler. <span style="color: #008000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 110%;">I didn't pass Tyler.

Tyler went to the Cross Country and he came 2nd. I couldn't go to the cross country. But I might have been 3rd or 2nd. Remy came first.

<span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Swimming <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">I can swim. I can float. I can nearly do backstroke, I can nearly swim to the other side. <span style="color: #0000ff; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">My Makino Report Derek is getting the idea of the roll to breath action; he has great backstroke and is also getting the idea of the breaststroke swim action.
