Question for active learning!

 

During PE this year, how have you shown you are prepared and willing to participate?

In a variety of activities? 
During PE this year I have shown that I am prepared in many ways. For example I never missed a single class, even if I feel a little sick. I am always willing to do my best, and try my hardest. I also have never come into class without my gym strip. Wearing proper gym strip is one of the keys to a good workout because you can do more physical things. People only invented gym strip because there was a difference then just wearing normal clothes.  Even if there are sports that I don’t like to play I still play and except the fact that I don’t always get my choice. I also make daily goals to achieve, like for an example if we were doing the beep test my goal would be to get 9.5 because last time I got 8.6. I always try to improve on the areas I know I can improve at. I also go on daily walks/runs, I bike and treadmill. I drink a lot of water (my goal daily is 4L) because it is really healthy and it is great for your body. Water is a great source of energy. I try to stretch a lot to maintain my physical shape. Stretching helps me because there is a less chance of hurting myself while doing an exercise if I am warmed up. I always try to push other to join along if they are sitting down but most importantly I push myself!

 On what days have you participated to your best effort and Why? 

I always try to do my best, but my best gym days would be probably the Beep Test days. Just because of all my workouts, runs and etc. they are all to improve my score and I went from 6.4 to an 8.6 and now I want to aim to go to a 9.5.

 What days have been a struggle for you and why?

There wasn’t really a day when I had a struggle but when I had a wart on my foot. And I could barely walk, yeah that time. To run and go up hills and stuff was tremendously hard. As the wart went I got better at my physical education. And now I have no troubles. So I can give my absolute 100 % and meet my goals.

 How do you contribute to the overall success of the class? 

I contributed pretty well in this class because I tried to lend a hand to anyone in need. If stuff needed to be put away I would help out and do it. I also encouraged others to help when help was needed. Having me in this class is like having a person that is helpful, determined and also ready to just do it.

 What kind of attitude do you bring and why?

I am a very negative person when it comes to my life. I will always think the bad thing instead of the good positive side. But not for my education and gym, I think positive as much as I can. If I want to achieve something then my outcome is always positive. I tend to think positive so my attitude is positive. For example I encourage others to help clean up and also to participate.

How do you interact with other students in our class?

I interact well with other students in my class, and especially well with my friends. I don’t get distracted by talking, I still participate. I may have had sometimes where I talk a lot but that never stops my work, I will always be doing the lesson, or whatever we are learning. (Multitasking)

 Describe your participation during fitness days - have you been able to push yourself

Physically? 

I push myself because I always try to improve, so I make goals. For example my beep test first it was 6.4 I worked and worked and then I got 8.6. My fitness increases each fitness day because my workout and my routines help. If I want to achieve something, I will do everything to achieve it. Example run faster longer, stretcher farther, exerciser longer.

 What types of fitness activities do you enjoy the most? 

My favourite fitness activity is probably the one where it’s like a circuit and you have to jump over this thing, and run up the stairs and stuff. I like this activity the best because this has a variety of movement and also a variety of fitness level. For example this helps upper legs and lower legs. This increases my heart rate really fast, and I am active for a long time.

 Goals do you have for the rest of the year?

My fitness goals will always change as the year goes on and also if I get injuries but for now one goal I have is to get 9.5 on the beep test. This goal requires training and time, which I am willingingly to do to achieve it. But I know I have what it takes, and the next beep test will be 9.5. I like to aim high and practice, so when I get there it will be because of my hard work and determination.

 What does "leadership" mean to you?

Leadership to me means to encourage everyone to participate, to help around. And also to lead activates and not being afraid to try new things. To show you have leadership you should be determined and ready. A person taking charge and leading is one way of being a leader.

 Who are the best leaders in our class - why?

The best leader in our class was Tyler he would always push us and tell us to get working. He would encourage us and help us when we needed it. He was a great role model and a tremendous leader in our class.

 What improvements would you like to make in PE by the end of the year? 

I would like to make many improvements like speaking up in class. Getting faster on the beep test is definitely one as well. I also want to change as a person and become better and healthier. I want to keep my body physically and mentally fit.

 What are you the most proud of so far?

I am most proud of how good I am doing so far in gym this is a great start and I just hope to keep improving!

 

Finally, what letter grade A, B, C+, C, C- (gulp) best represents the effort you just described?

I think A because I have always shown I can do well but also improve ex beep test 6.4 to 8.6. I always participate, I have my gym strip with my at all times. I always try to help. And I find a way to stay fit. I have activates that I do outside of school to help me improve.
