Snowboarding
Presenter: Welcome to Park Rat Podcast. Today’s guest is Philipe Chester, a snowboarding rider. We will talk about snowboarding, an incredible winter sport! Guest: Hello, thank you for inviting me.
Presenter: What can you tell us about snowboarding? Guest: Well. This sport comes from skateboarding, surfing and skiing, and it became a Winter Olympic Sport in 1998. Riders go down a slope covered with snow. They stand on a board attached to their feet.

Motus dice Did you have any problem with the recording?
Did you make any mistakes while recording the podcast? It is normal to make mistakes at the beginning. Failure is part of learning. Do you remember when you first rode a bike or you tried to swim? Surely it wasn't easy at first, but every time you tried again. With each failure, we learn from the mistake and improve for the next time. Do not worry, you will have more opportunities to record your podcast. To learn from your mistakes, follow these tips:
1. I realise where I have failed.
2. I look for ways to improve that mistake.
3. I try again.
4. I understand that mistakes are important for learning. Don't forget: when you make a mistake once, you learn for the next try.
