Review & Lead in
It was hard to make a clear sound! My mouth felt strange, and my fingers wouldn't move to the right holes.
Holding the brush steady was very difficult. My hand shook, and the ink blots made the characters look messy.
Mixing colors to get the exact shade I wanted was tricky. Also, I was worried about making mistakes on the paper.
2. Free talk: what’s the challenges of doing these activities.
Review & Lead in
Walking uphill was much more tiring than I thought! I got out of breath quickly and my legs hurt the next day.
The code looked like a foreign language! I was confused by the symbols and rules, and even a small typo made the whole program fail.
I was afraid of falling down! I couldn't control my speed or stop properly, so I fell a lot.
