Finals Post

1. Explain how successful you've been this semester?

  I think the level of success I have achieved since the first semester has vastly improved.

2. On a daily basis what do you think your average exertion level has been? What factors does it makes it higher at time and lower at times?
 
     I think my daily exertion average is a 6. I try harder when Mr.Neufeld encourages me too and when we are doing an activity I am used to doing but I am always open to try new activities

3. How have you done contributing to the overall positive atmosphere around the class?

     I always cheer my friends on during beep tests and try to cooperate with the rest of the people in my P.E class. This is sometimes difficult as some grade 9's do not wish to co-operate.

4. What types of goals have you set for your fitness and How are you doing working towards these Goals?

    I try to gradually expand my limits of exertion to improve the results of activities such as Community Run, Beep Test, and 30 minute run. I think I have made quite good progress towards my goal as I achieved 22:30 on my last community run, 8 laps on my last 30 minute run, and 11 on my last beep test. These are all new personal bests for me.

5. What is one thing you learned about your body this semester?

   I have learned that when I pace myself and not over exert right at the beginning of an activity it yields greater results. I also learned that when I choose to do activities with a different variety of people I have a better mindset on completing my objective.

6. Based on the information above what do you think would be a accurate percentage for your time in PE this year?
  
   I think I deserve a somewhere between 80-90%.

I couldn't post a picture of me after the 30 minute run because it was on jas's ipod which he doesn't have with him so I hope you enjoy this picture of a giraffe instead.

Midterm 3

During PE this year I have shown I participate in activities willingly by not objecting to what activities we are doing in class. I participate to my best effort when we are doing activities such as the beep test or the activity where you run across the gym doing various different stretches. I always bring a positive attitude and listen to the TA's to contribute to the success of the class.

      Today in Active Learning we played hockey. I really enjoy hockey because it builds endurance and stamina. I started playing ice hockey when I was very little because the cool air helps with my asthma. Today I scored 1 goal and got 2 assists. I feel I am doing much better with how I interact with my classmates during Active Learning.

Active Learning Reflection

   During PE this year I have participated in most activities but there are some activities that I did not participate in such as when we did zumba dancing. The days that I participate to my best effort are usually fitness days. On these days I push myself especially hard on activities such as the beep test,obstacle course, and Insanity. I enjoy these activities more because I can push myself hard and still feel comfortable. Some improvements I would like to make for the end of the year are to participate more and push mysef harder. I think I deserve a B or a C+.
