GERKO REFLECTION 3RD WEEK

Today was the third class for GERKO and Madam Choong still was not

around. As usual, we started our GERKO class by running 3 laps at track around the

field. There is reason why madam ordered us to run every Tuesday morning during

her class. I think it is because she wanted to see the improvement of our stamina and

test our fitness.

Today, our GERKO representative, Zaini told us that we were supposed to sit

in group of four to discuss on the skills of tennis game. I’m with Arief Albaqry, Azie

and Lizamaria. We were gathering at library and try to find out the information about

the tennis skill by reading the books and browsing the internet. Zaini said that we

need to present what skill that we had learned and each of group members need to

present the different skill.

In order to understand better the tennis skill that I had learned, I have

download some video from Youtube and tried to practice it by watching the video.

Now, I know a little bit about the tennis skills.

 GERKO REFLECTION 4TH WEEK

Today madam Choong was not around and as usual we need to jog 3 laps in

IPDA’s track in order to improve our fitness.

After have a tired time at the track, we headed to IPDA’s library to find out the

information about tennis skills. We sat in our group and discussed about the skills.

We already divided the skills that we were going to present. I chose a backhand skill

which I think it is quite easy from others skill but it’s wrong. Backhand skill was quite

difficult. In conclusion, all skills in tennis are difficult to me because it was the first

time I learned this game and I have zero basic about the game.

In order to make myself cleared about the skill, I had downloaded the video of

backhand skill of tennis and I also asked my friends to teach me about the skill. Now,

I know the skill better than before.

GERKO REFLECTION 5TH WEEK

It was a fifth class with madam Choong. Before went to library, we were

supposed to run 3 laps in the track.

After that, we went to library and sat together with our group members to start

discussing about the tennis skills. We discussed on how to present in front of our

classmate about the skills that we had learned by our own. I think it’s a good idea to

present the tennis skills in front of our classmate because by doing this activity, we

will know and gained a lot of knowledge about tennis skills.

I also tried to get some information from my classmate about the backhand skill

and I felt that I’m ready to present this skill in front of my class although I don’t know

what I had learned before this is correct or not. I hope madam will help me during the

presentation.
GERKO REFLECTION 6TH WEEK

Today was the second time we met with madam Choong in GERKO class in

this semester after a month we were have a GERKO class without her. After run 3

laps in ipda’s track, we were headed to tennis court as ordered by madam. As

beginner tennis player, we were taught by madam the basic skills in tennis.

Madam taught us about the grip. She showed us the correct way on hoe to

hold a tennis racket. Madam told us that it is different with playing badminton

because in tennis, we lock our wrist to hit the ball whereas in badminton, we use our

wrist to hit shuttlecock. So, this game is a little bit hard for badminton player to get

suitable with it.

Besides that, we also learned about the most important skill in tennis, hitting.

Madam asked us to do a practice by hit the ball towards the fence in order to make

us suitable with this skill. From this activity, I know that this game is hard to play

although its look likes a simple game.
