Final Portfolio Assessment "Report Card" Post

The grade that I think I should deserve is this class is an "A". The work habit mark that I should deserve is a "G". I think I should deserve these marks because of how much effort I put in the class. I participate in this class by attending all field trips that happen in the class. I am always prepared for this class by bringing gym strip to every class. I am also on time for this class. My attendance in this class is extremely good since I only missed this class once the whole semester. I have improved a lot in my fitness work ethic since the last report card. I always try my best on fitness days now and aim for better. The way I show leadership skills in class is by helping up set activities and helping with the equipment. On choice days, I help make teams and take out the particular equipment that is needed for the activity. I take the initiative to encourage others to do the same. Gym strip is not been an issue since I always bring it everyday. During fitness days, I try to push myself and have found that this year I have really improved in my fitness levels. For example, when we do insanity, I am usually able to go till the end of the video. I am really honest in recording my fitness scores. I always bring a positive attitude and positive energy in this class. I always participate in this class no matter what we are going to do today. I stay connected to the community by volunteering. I volunteer at the Y in the aquatics department. I put all my effort to what I do in PE and I take the initiative to encourage others to do the same. I work hard to develop certain skills to achieve success. I have committed myself to go to the YMCA 2-3 days a week so that I have an extra-circular daily activity outside of school. Overall, I think I should deserve this and I had a wonderful and a fantastic semester.

Spring Break 2014

I had a wonderful spring break full of energy and happiness. Since the weather was not that bad, I had a lot of chances to get out and stay active each day during the break. Some of the sports I played were, hockey, soccer and basketball which helped me maintain my fitness levels. I went out for small jogs sometimes where I was able to accelerate my heart rate. However, I went to the Y to work out and play various sports when the weather was not good. Every Sunday I went and still go to volunteer in the pool. During the spring break I had increased my hours of volunteer since I had no school. This way I had an opportunity to stay connected to the community even more. Overall, I had a fantastic spring break and I kept myself active outside of school with all the things that were available to me.

My first fitness testing: March 7, 2014

This day I was admired to do my first fitness testing of the semester as it was recommended by the PE staff. I did not get to the fitness testing in January because that time I wasn't in this class. At first, I started of with the beep test as the seniors were asked to go first. The beep test tested my cardiovascular endurance. However, my score was reasonably acceptable which was 9.6 and this isn't my best because this was my first time doing it this year and I will obviously work hard to improve this score. I achieved this score because it was my first time and I look forward to improving this score. In order to improve this score, I would try my best in all the things that I do at school related to PE and outside of school. Afterwards, I went to test my speed/agility which was done by the T-Test. In fact, my result was 11:14 seconds which I will try to improve to at least 10. Later on, I was able to test my flexibility by certainly doing the sit and reach. As a result my level was 3. I am glad I got this because I remember last year I achieved 2 as my final score for the sit and reach. After, I went and tested my vertical. By standing I got 240 centimeters and by jumping I got 280 centimeters. The difference was 40 cm which was not bad for me as it was my first time doing it. Lastly, I finished the testing my doing the board touches which tested my balance. In 30 seconds I touched the ground only 10 times. So this post explains the things I did on this day, how to improve on these and my related scores. I will try to make progress in all of these areas as the semester moves on.

                                         

    

  

Interim Post March 2014

My semester so far is going really well in regards to the class. I have been very considerate and very prepared for this class everyday. Some things, I want to discuss are my strengths, weaknesses and the areas that I have to improve on throughout this course as the semester progresses. The way that I participate in the class is by bringing my PE strip everyday and being prepared for class. Some of my strengths include: taking a leadership role in the class by taking out the equipment for the activity we are going to do, I am also good at fitness activities, I always bring a positive attitude and positive energy to the class and I am also good at encouraging others to put more effort. The way I stay connected with the community is by volunteering. I volunteer at the Y in the aquatics department now. I put all my effort to what I do in PE and I take the initiative to encourage others to do the same. I work hard to develop certain skills to achieve success. I have committed myself to go to the YMCA 2 - 3 days a week so that I have an extra-circular daily physical activity. Some of my weaknesses include: encouraging the junior classes to put more effort and motivating others to push their self. I like to contribute to all activities that take place. Some barriers that limit me from participating certain activities is that when I injured my wrist, I wasn't able to try my best.  Some areas I could work on throughout the semester are: taking the initiative to make fair teams on choice days and helping other classes in the block without being asked to. My personal goals are to improve on my intellectual, cooperation, leadership and athletic skills.

Reflecting on my recent weeks

This semester has started as I wanted it to start. However, I wasn't able to do my first fitness testing because I had just switched into this class on that particular day. I have been very responsible in regarding to bringing my PE strip everyday. This way my participation to the class is going well. Throughout the semester some things I have done during fitness days are: locomotion, parking lot relay, circuit, pond run, and the insanity. These activities helped me increase my work ethic and effort. Everyday in PE, I come with positive energy and willing to participate in any activity that we do. As the semester progresses I want to push myself more and more. Everyday in PE, I put myself in sort of a position which makes me to take a leadership role and contribute to the class. For example, I help with any equipment needed, taking out the pinnies, and helping making fair teams during choice days. I am also very connected with the community. Now I volunteer in the aquatics department in the YMCA. This way it gives me a great opportunity to contribute to the community. My fitness scores for the past weeks teach me that I can push myself more and try harder and put even more effort the next time. Some barriers that are limiting me from trying my best is that I injured my wrist one day during soccer on a choice day so I am not able to play some sports for a while. I am very honest with my fitness scores and I motivate myself to pick a different sport each day on choice days. My future goals for this semester are to push myself, put more effort, contribute more to the PE block since we are the seniors, participate everyday and encourage others to do the same.

First Post: Personal Profile

I am glad to have PE this semester because I really wanted it and I look forward to it. I registered for this course because I am very passionate about PE and keeping myself in shape. My favorite part of PE is that I get to play sports which I definitely enjoy doing. Also, I get to keep myself active in school. I think my current level of fitness is pretty good since I keep myself active outside of school. Now days, I usually go swimming because I am looking forward to becoming a life guard. My previous personal best beep test score was 10.7. To stay active outside of PE, I am currently going to the gym to swim, work out or to play basketball. Well, there is not much things that physically prevent me from doing exercise. In fact, if I do get sick once in a while, I don't feel like doing much exercise. Things that mentally prevent me from doing exercise are: time which I need and energy which I also need at the end of the day. My eating habits are not fully healthy. Although, I still eat healthy fruits and vegetables. I want to learn more about different sports. For example I'd like to learn all the rules for Lacrosse, Rugby, Tennis and Ping Pong. I want to improve my abilities in certain sports and definitely my fitness scores. Outside school activities I'd like to try are: to play sports outside with friends because recently the weather has been really cold outside and I didn't get a chance to play outside and I'd like to try having a jog outside every 2 - 3 days. My fitness goals for this semester are: get at least 11.0 on the beep test and run for the whole time when doing the circuit. My personal character goals are: to take leadership in the class, be energetic and be enthusiastic. I really look forward to have a wonderful semester.
