Answer 1

don't be nervous about gym, you probably wont mess up as much as you think you will, and chances are, you wont be the only one who is nervous.

Answer 2

Talk to the school counselor and be honest with her. Maybe she can get with the gym teacher and help solve the problem. In addition try to communicate with some of your classmates.It may not be as bad as it seems.

Answer 3

Ok...Say your playing softball...

Your at the plate up to bat...You swing and miss...

Laugh it off and do i silly move (like spin in a circle or jump )

It sounds stupid but when you laugh, everyone will laugh with you and think"Hey, it is just a game right???" I hope i helped!!

Sincerly

S.T

Answer 4

Answer 5

Laugh at your mistakes...

and if you just miss the ball, don't do anything at all... because everyone does.
