Final Blog Post

Participation

I always come to P.E on time and I always have my gym strip on. Right when I enter the gym I am ready to try my best on whatever activity we are going to do. On choice days I usually will pick an a activity that i'm interested in, but if I don't really see an activity that I am interested in I just do what my friends do so that I enjoy the activity and still try my best even if it is something I don't like. In this category, I would give myself 23 out of 25.

Social Responsibility and Contribution to the Class

When we are setting up the activity or game for P.E, I don't always help with getting the equipment but I help put it away. I'm don't like being the center of attention so I don't help organize them into groups but, When the game or activity has started I encourage them to try their best. I always bring a positive attitude to the class. In this category, I would give myself 16 out of 25

 Healthy Living   

My beep test score has improved from 6.8 to 9.1 which i'm pretty happy about because my goal this year was to improve my endurance and I think I have accomplished my goal. Over the summer i'm going to try to get in better shape by going for a nice early morning jog to further improve my endurance. I eat some healthy foods but I think I probability eat more unhealthy foods though, so over the summer I'm going to start eating more healthy foods. In this category, I would give myself 15 out of 25

Digital Portfolio and Reflective Skills

During the start of the year I was bad at keeping my blog up to date with new post of what we did. I also have no posts about being active after school or any pictures. Around the middle of the year I started to post about what we did every day we did P.E but after awhile I stopped. I feel like I should have made more of an effort to post on my blog and get some pictures up. Some of my blog post lack in information and could be better. In this category, I would give myself 5 out of 25

The overall letter grade I would give myself is a C+ because I'm always on time, I always have my gym strip, I bring a positive attitude, but my blog is not what it could have been if i tried to post more often and add pictures.

Lacrosse

Today we played lacrosse. It was fun to play because everyone was at the same skill level. We were split into 4 teams by if you had dark shoes you are on one side and if you have light shoes you are on the other then if you had a light shirt or a dark shirt. my team only won one game which was the first game we played, all the other games we played we had tied the other team. Whenever we play a game I know i'm not good at i still try my best because I think if I you don't ever try to play new games you ruin it for everyone.

Buddies

Yesterday, we had buddies right after a concert for an elementary school class. I didn't know if we had buddies because we finished the concert 5 minutes into lunch, so I asked people and they all said no, so I went home and ate lunch came back to school and got ready for P.E. When I walked into the gym I noticed that no one from our class was there, so I went to the P.E office and asked where they were. I was told that they were at the school our buddies go to, so I had to run all the way there just to get there for the end of class.    

Dance Week

       For dance week we did Hip Hop and Bhangra. We did hip hop first and we practiced the dance. We then did class dance battles and we won. I don't really remember what song we danced to or what we did as a class but I know that I can't dance. The next class in dance week we did Bhangra and we practiced 2 dances, an easy one and a hard one. The easy one was slow and easy to follow and the hard one you had to move faster and I don't remember what it was called but we had to do a squat move that really hurt your knees. For this class we also did the class dance battle and Mr. Williams joined us and we won.

All Buddy Posts

      The first time we met our buddies we talked with them and asked the questions we prepared before hand. My buddy was shy at first but after talking and getting to know each other he became less shy. we then practiced different types of walks and my buddy was really good at all the different types of walks. After we played a game using our names and fruits and vegetables. We stood in a circle and one person started by saying a fruit or vegetable and we had to quickly say our fruit or vegetable and another persons fruit or vegetable before the person in the middle tagged you. My buddy was really good at the game and never was the person in the middle.

      The second time we saw them we asked them what they did over the break. We then worked on jump squats and played a game using jump squats with hula hoops and the huge blue mattress. Our buddies had to run and jump squat in a hula hoop then do it again then at the end of the hula hoop
course they jump on the blue mattress.

      The third time we saw them we practiced under hand throwing and how to properly throw the ball under hand. We played pass with our buddies and practiced teaching them how to do it properly. My Buddy had a little trouble getting it but after helping him he was great at it. We then played a golf game with hula hoops and our buddies had to throw the ball in the next hoop to move on. My Buddy was great at this game he would get holes in one almost every hole.

     The fourth time we saw them we talked about how their Easter was and how eating chocolate is bad for you. We then played full body rock, paper, scissors. Rock was you had to become a ball, paper was putting your hands in the air and scissors was crossing your arms. First you ad to run up to a midway point and play rock, paper, scissors then run back, but after we played regular rock paper scissors were if you win you move up and if you lose you say in the hula hoop you are in. My buddy did good, we lost some, won some, and tied a lot.
     

Dragon Tail

On Thursday we played a game called Dragon Tail, I think. The game is like capture the flag, and flag football mix. Instead of using footballs and the stuff for capture the flag, we used a hair band and to get a point you have to get the hair band to the other side of the field. To stop the other team you have to grab the flag the have on them. It was BBW vs Wildcats. I was on BBW and I think we won the first game then the wildcats won the second game. The day 1 P.E class challenged us to a game of Dragon Tail, don't know when that is going to happen.

Relays

Yesterday for fitness day we did relays around the pond in groups of 3 or 4 around the pond. I felt a little sleepy before we started because I spent all night working on the piece of paper with my buddy's name on it. After it was done i was wasn't sleepy anymore but i was tired. while we ran I never walked.
