Kiwi can term 3

This is my recount. I have edited it but if there are ways I can improve it, please leave a comment.

The window had eyes to see a toy cow fly through the sky. When Monday hit at Kiwi Can the group I am in played a game called chuck the chicken. We do it because we were learning about resilience and it was super hard.  It was spectacular when we played so what we had to do is there is a fielding team and runner team. The runner team would pass the chicken until Nathan says chuck the chicken and the runners would chuck the chicken and run around the circle then sit where they were sitting to see if they were the fastest. The fielding team would grab the chicken and get in a straight line then we swapped so now the runners were fielders and the fielders were runners.

           I liked being the runner the most after christian chucked the chicken out the window
even though the chicken was a cow we stilled called it a chicken but there was a rule
switch so the fielders would grab the cow and pass it under and over and the
runners would try and get everyone round the circle the fastest it was harder but
funner. I almost fell over running round the circle but I made it. We all made it round
the circle without falling over lucky so the runners won in the first and second
round.

I got round to the end unscaved the fielders did a great job at one part almost doing the
right thing they just needed to get in a straight line. One time it was a bit loud for sam my
friend to get in line. I loved chuck the chicken it was testing our arms and legs plus it
was super fun to see who ended up with the chicken and who got the chicken in the
fielding team.
