Final PE Blog

This is my final PE blog for this semester.  There are four pillars you have noted and I will answer each one to the best of my ability.

1)  My participation:  I have attend almost every 5th block class.  On those days that I have not been at PE they have been excused misses as I have had appointments during 5th block or have been sick.  I have arrived on time for every class and have always had my PE strip on and ready to go at start of class.  I feel I participate in every activity we do even if I am not great at the sport I have always tried my hardest.  I try to encourage others to participate.  On choice days I try to chose something I am good at and that I enjoy as this will make me work harder.  I have always enjoyed badminton and will play that at every time it is available.  I am not as good at volleyball but have played and tried to contribute when that is an option.  On fitness days I have tried to work as hard as I can to improve my previous results and to be my times.  I have not always been successful but I feel that I have always tried by best on that day.

2)  Social Responsibility/Contributing to the Class:  I always try to help with set up equipment and putting things away after PE without ever being asked.  I feel that I chose to take PE so I always come with a good attitude.  I am not one to stand around not participating.  I try to encourage others to participate to make it fun as well to help organize teams for different games.  I always play fair and would never cheat in a game.  With badminton I will play with anyone no matter their skill level and will try to help them to get better.  I have always been honest with my fitness scores even if I have not done as well as the time before.  I believe my attitude towards PE and fitness as always been positive.

3)  Healthy Living:  I have been trying to incorporate a healthier lifestyle into my day to day living.  Aside from PE I have an app on my phone which assists me using my weight and fitness goals that I can keep track of how many calories I am intaking and what foods I am eating so I can make better choices.  I understand that making the right choices is a life long journey and that I will not always be successful but that I don't get to down on myself and continue to try harder the next day.  I believe that eating healthier will make my exercise easier.  My last fitness day I had a better time on the T test and was working hard on all other categories.  All other categories were very similar to the time before.  I know that I need to continue working at home on my own health and well being and making sure that i find time for activities.  I know that I feel better and have more energy to do other things on the days when I have eaten better and have gotten exercise.  I realize that this is not always easy and I do not always have the results I want but I am determined to keep trying each and every day.

4)  Digital Portfolio and Reflective Skills:  In my previous blogs I have shown photos of my times etc.  I have not posted any videos or photos of myself as I have explained this in previous blogs.  I understand that feedback from peers or teachers could be helpful however social media is not what I am comfortable with.  I have a wonderful support group at home, people who go for walks with me or bike rides.  I have family to go swimming with and all of us working toward a healthier lifestyle.  This are just things that I am not comfortable posting on line for all to see.  So my digital portfolio is probably not as good as some but I had to make that choice as I am not comfortable having those imagines on line.  I have tried very hard to do my blogging as I have previously said it is way out of my comfort zone.  I feel I have expressed myself in writing and that is the best that I could do.

I have hopefully given you enough information again I am short on the digital part of the assessment although on previous blogs I have explained why.  I hope that my resistance to blogging would not affect my final mark as I feel I have tried hard in class and have always come with a positive attitude towards PE.  I have tried to participate to the best of my ability and I have never just skipped a class or have come unprepared for class.  I believe my final grade could be around 75% which I feel would be fair.

PE

After I am done PE this semester I am going to try to go to the gym 3-4 days a week after school to workout. Because I will not have any time to work out. I am also going to take PE next year to stay fit.

Chose day

I like when we have chosse days I think that it is nice to get to chosse what we want to do but I think that on chosse days I don't get my best work out I find that they are normal the same things and by the end very few people are still plying. I am really enjoyed when we did baseball will all the classes that was lots of fun and when we play capture the flag that is really great too.

Fitness ( Hill Run)

On Tuesday we had the hill run I found it really hard todo I was very tryed by the end of it. I was not feeling good on Tuesday I have a really bad cough. But I tryed my hardest and I did not walk up the hill once I ran it everytime. If I was feeling better I would have probably ran up the hill faster but I was pretty happy with my results.

Fitness ( pound run )

When we did the pond run I was feeling good. At the beginning of the run I was doing really good towards the end I was really tired but I did not stop running  I found that I paste myself really good I was really tried at the end of my run though . My goal for the pound run is to be able to do run faster and still be running at the end too.

Fitness day

Today in fitness we did the beep test. 

I did not do as good as I was hopeing I got 

    Beep test - 5.2 

    Sit and reach- 3

    Plank - 30

    Push ups- 1 

    Balance board - 11

    Jump - 30

    T- test - 13.87 

T-test time 

In fitness today I did not do great on the beep test but it was around what I normal get. When I did the sit and reach, plank , T-test they were all around the same as I always get. I can not do a push up and I never hve been able too so that has stayed the same. I am trying to put more excises into my daily life. I find it hard for me to work out every day but I am trying to do things such as ride a staore bike and using my YMCA membership. 

Interim Report

This is my PE interim post.  I feel that I have been working hard in PE this year.  I always show up on time ready to go.  I help set up and get things going.  Although I have missed a few classes due to a terrible head cold I have otherwise been on time for every class.  I have tried hard to improve my scores on fitness days and I try to participate in all other activities that we are doing.  I am also trying to stay active at home as I mentioned in my last blog.   I am doing better in my fitness and will keep trying to improve.  I feel that I have done well in most categories in PE aside from blogging.  I realize that my blogging is not up to some of the classes.  I know that you are looking for videos of workouts and pictures of workouts.  I personally find this very difficult as I do not use any social media.  The only social media I have is this blog.  I like to keep my personal things off of the internet and do not feel comfortable having videos or pictures of me working out.  I understand that this is an important part of PE unfortunately it is not something that comes easily for me.  The idea of having a video of me working out bothers me quite a bit.  I understand it is what you are looking for, and a lot of students are fine with doing this.  I will try to blog more in writing in the future however I don't know if I will be able to do the videos or pictures.  I am hope that this will not affect my final PE mark.  I am enjoy my PE class and fill that it is helping me to achieve my fitness goals.  I think I deserve 77% for this class as I have really try to improve my fitness and have set many personal goals to achieve them.  I need to improve my blogging and will try to do more in the next half.
