4a) I have challenged myself to try a type of new sport in my secondary school. The sport is basketball, which is the CCA that I having now. When i playing basketball, it let me felt excited.

4b)I agree with this point, the students should have a sport activity as a hobby. As most of the students will not go for exercise in their own ,it will cause that they will sick easily.

4a) I have challenged myself to join a new CCA in secondary school. I used to be a librarian in primary school, this year I decided to join art CCA, which I had never try before.

4b) I agree, we should have a sport activity as a hobby. Most people were attracted by phones, televisions and computers, these devices cause people to not exercise. Not exercising cause illness, we can get sick easily. Having a sport as hoppy can help us to enjoy doing sport.

5a) I will prefer to do exercise with a group, as I prefer to do the exercise with my friend . Exercise with a group also can improve the skill of communication by talking with other.

5b) I agree with this point , the school should have CCAs like Yoga, Pilates and Zumba. As this type of CCAs can let students relax themselves and also can let them release their stress.

Personally, I prefer exercising with my friends as it gives me motivation and has a sort of competitive feel to it. I do not like exercising alone as I feel lonely and it is just not as fun without them. I feel motivated when I am around them since without them I noticed that I tend to exercise less without them. This is particularly because of the motivation that I derive from them because of the competition. When I'm by myself and I feet tired, there's no one behind my back to push me on. And therefore, I quit easily. However, it is only when I'm with them where I can challenge myself to achieve greater results.

5b.

As students, we face lots of stress in terms of academic and non academic commands. I think that having cca's like yoga and others like it is a great idea since students will be stressed most of the time and need a way to release it. I have heard that yoga can ease the mind. And personally, I think yoga would really help out students since most secondary 1 students face a lot of stress since they have just graduated primary school and have taken a big step in their life. Secondary 1 students usually get tired easily since subjects are more advanced, and they have a lot of books and materials they need to carry and now have more subjects. I think that cca's like yoga can help release stress from the students physically and mentally. That's why I think having cca's like yoga is a great idea.

As compared to other activities such as going to the gym, yoga is perfect for almost anyone. While going to work out on the gym really depends on your age. Most people that go to the gym and are about 13 years of age tend to exceed their limits too much and try to push themselves too far and might tear their muscles or even worse, break a bone or sustain permanent injuries.

5a) I prefer exercising with a group of people. We can encourage each other and also learn from each other, we get to communicate with other people and meet new people.

5b) Yes, I agree that school should have Yoga, Pilates and Zumba as CCAs. We don’t get to experience these activities, for example, Zumba , in normal physical education lesson we do not have changes to do Zumba. These activities can help us to improve our fitness and experience different ways to exercise.
