Final Report Card

Participation:

I've been really good with attendance in PE, always there on time coming prepared with strip and proper shoes, however I have forgotten my strip a couple of times.As far as participation I always play every choice but not to my full potential. Sometimes I don’t like the choice but sometimes its that other people don’t try and it kills the vibe.When it comes to intensity of playing i always try to make sure im super hyped and energetic because i know how my attitude affects other people. If i decide to just screw around and put on that attitude i know the grade 10's are looking up at us and following what we are doing and that's not exactly the kind of attitude we want to show them. I know during choice days its extremely difficult to make the most out of it especially when you're playing with a bunch of kids that dont wanna be there or people who just don’t want to play. Even if it is a sport I don’t like playing for example baseball, I still try my best. I don’t care if I cant swing properly and I don’t mind if other people make fun of me. 

Social Responsibility & Contribution to the Class:

I enjoy being a leader because it makes me feel like I play an important role in this class and the other blocks. During choice days i always try to make sure i help out with cleaning up or setting up because i know the feeling of being alone with cleaning up and it sucks that's why i try to be helpful as possible. But sometimes I don’t do anything and I just sit there and watch other people set up. I also try to come with a positive attitude in class and try not to complain about being tired or bored or not wanting to be at school because i actually really enjoy P.E. But there are also times when i just feel absolutely lazy and not wanting to do anything but I still try to come to class with a smile on my face because i know it somehow brings up people in a positive mood and i guess that contributes to the success of the class. PE has also helped me build greater friendships like i became so much closer to Alex and Keenan. In a way they motivate me to lift. When we would go to the weight room, I don’t feel comfortable lifting because I am small, and my body is just not meant for lifiting.



Digital Portfolio & Reflective Skills:
I don't have a lot of pictures and videos of me exercising or working out but i do write about what happens and sometimes reflect on it. I admit that this term has been really really bad especially with blogs. I really really don't want to do blogs and i just get too lazy or i just forget about it. I know that my blog is crap compared to some of the grade 10's and i realized that too late. .
Overall, i've had fair lazy days of not trying and being super incredibly lazy and complaining but i've also had my good days where i give it my all and i think that balances it out. If i were to give you percentage right now.. I think i'd be sitting at a 80% because even though i slacked off a little bit during this term with blogs. I believe if I had tried more on blogs would have gotten a better mark, but I did exactly what you told us not to do, which is leaving the blogs to the end of the semester.

Healthy Living:

Outside of school PE I will try to do something every day. I play basketball every day with my friends. But doing something isn’t the whole part. I have begun eating healthy food. I started eating more sandwiches with cucumbers and tomatoes. I think my fitness level has improved throughout the semester a bit at the beginning of the year I got a 8.6 but at the end I had a 9.4 and I started to just feel better after every fitness class.I am not very proud of my beep test scores because in grade 9 I got a 11.3 and I haven’t been able to reach that ever since. Ive also started eating some more fruits and vegetables. I want to start going to the gym around spring break time everyday and then into summer.

Pond Run

I am proud of myself because I didn't cheat by walking when we were supposed to be running. I started off strong but I got tired after the 8th run, but I didn't give up. I kept running but not as fast. I hope that next time I can pace my self so I can finish off strong 

Weight Room

Today we did exercises on the Latissimus Dorsi, this is one of the many muscles on the back. I did 3 exercises revolving this muscele. 

At first I had problems figuring out what the proper form was. I couldn't get my back right but after getting help form Alex , I figured it out. 

Blog Reflection

After reading and commenting on people's blogs, I realized that my posts need much improvement. I need more evidence of me doing the activities. Another major thing I need in my posts is detail. Other people have many posts and I only have a few, in order to succes I need to write more posts

Mid-Term Post

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

in a variety of activities?  On what days have you participated to your best effort and 

why?  What days have been a struggle for you and why?

During this year I participate most of the time and for the time i don't participate are the activities i don't enjoy. for example one activity i don't like is the circuit because people don't try and it kills my vibe. The days i participate the most are days when i had a good lunch and when i like the activity. One activity i really enjoy doing is Insanity because it keeps you motivated and it trains basically the whole body. The days that i struggle are when i didn't eat a lunch and or when i don't enjoy the activity. one way to improve this is to try my hardest even though i don't like the activity. 

How do you contribute to the overall success of the class?  What kind of attitude do 

you bring and why?  How do you interact with other students in our class?

The way i contribute to the class is different to the way other people contribute. I contribute by following the rules and being a good sport. An example of this is when we play capture the flag, when i get tagged i go to jail instead of ignoring the fact that i got tagged. I always bring a happy attitude to class. I get along with all the students in our class, especially the ones i already know well. 

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

physically?  What types of fitness activities do you enjoy the most?  What fitness 

goals do you have for the rest of the year? 

During fitness days i try unless its an activity i don't prefer. I try to partner up with people that are gonna try so it will motivate me and push me past my limits. The fitness activities i enjoy the most are: Insanity, Community Run, and Triple Threat. But out of those three i prefer triple threat because the partners in your group can motivate you. My fitness goal for this year is to get  a 12.6 on the beep test. I will get this by eating health, or atleast try to. Another way to get this score is to focus on stamina and endurance training. 

What does "leadership" mean to you?  Who are the best leaders in our class - why

To me the word leadership means a person who can motivate you and bring a positive attitude. There are many examples in our class but the one that sticks out the most is Parmvir Toor. He is always trying is hardest and always puts a smile on peoples faces. 

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

you the most proud of so far?

By the end of this pe year i want to have more stamina. I am most proud of my beep test. it is my highest so far. It is 11.3 

Finally, what letter grade A, B, C+, C, C- (gulp) best represents the effort you just described? In Grade 10-12 we need an actual percentage as well. :( Like 71%… because…"

After reflecting on what i did so far this year in pe, i think i deserve a B with a percent of %80

Beep Test/Fitness Testing

We had the beep test in the small gym and it was easier. I was aiming for around 12.5 but I quit just before that. While I was in the 12s it became difficult, I wanted to stay longer but I couldn't. But after stopping at 12.3, I felt as if I could have gone longer. I regret quitting at 12.3. 

Grouse Grind

This is my first time doing the Grouse Grind. I was nervous going into it, but after about 10 min it got easier. The challenge I had was keeping a pace that suited me. I started off fast but got gassed out. I then started to go slower. The hardest part for me was 3/4. It was hard because it was steep. I got 1:04 and I was disappointed. I should have gotten under 55min but I didn't have a water bottle and this was my first time. Next time I do this I will keep a pace that suites me
