Final Portfolio Assessment "Report Card" Post


Participation: For PE I feel like I give my full effort into participating. I alway come to class to class with my gym strip and ready to participate. I try to help the younger grades and start games such as ultimate and capture the flag. Even though I'm pretty bad at organizing teams i still make the effort and i think that counts for a lot. I also try to bring a positive energy to class and to try and motivate my fellow classmates to preform to their very best. I also feel like i try pretty hard in fitness and other activities even if i don't like what we are doing. 

Social Responsibility and Contribution to the Class: Like i said in the last category i feel like i try to contribute to this class. Every time we have choice I try to organize games for not only my class but for the younger classes too. I hope to think that the younger kids look up to me and think that I am a good role model in the class. Also I try to get the younger kids into the activity like I am, especially when we are doing an activity that none of us like. I never need a reminder from the teacher to try my hardest or to put equipment away.

Healthy Living: I do really well during fitness opportunities but i still think there is definitely room for improvement. My beep test scores always stay around the 10 range but i know that with more PE class I could improve that number to even an 11 or 12. However at the start of this year my beep test were in the high 9's at best but now i'm the mid 10's which i think is a huge improvement for me. I hope that with further practice and training i will be able to maintain my current fitness level or even improve it.

Digital Portfolio and Reflective skills: I feel that my blog is very complete overall. I have a lot of evidence and numerous blog posts about the effort i put into this class. I feel that my blog posts are very detailed and truly represent what i have learned and how i have improved over the year in PE. I also feel like i may be able to post more photos or videos as to why i deserve the mark i gave myself but i still think my blog is very good overall.

In the end i feel like i still deserve a 90% in this class. Thanks :)

Community Run

Today for fitness we did the community run which i actually like a lot. I still have no idea which way I am supposed to go for the route but i haven't gotten lost yet so thats pretty good. I actually tried really hard today and ran with Josh for most of it. I was determined to try and pass him and to get a better time than me but he sprinted the last bit and beat me by twenty seconds. I ended up with a time of 13:34 and the feeling that I wanted to throw up. All in all it was a very good fitness day and i tried really hard.

Beep Test

The other day when we were doing beep test and we had a sub I felt like I tried really hard. Even now as i'm writing this blog i still feel that my legs are a bit sore from that, which is bad considering i have fitness again today. Also i did a minute and ten seconds of body bridge, 20 push ups, got 40 on the vertical jump, and got a 0 on the flexibility test. I am hoping to score higher next time than i scored today which was a 10.2.

Quality of my blog

I think my blog is actually a very good one, i think the information i write and the pictures i post truly represents the effort i put into this class. I have plenty of visual evidence and my posts are on point. If anything i could improve on the amount of blogs i post but otherwise i feel that overall my blog is very well written.

Skills Canada

Today I went to an event for skills Canada which was really cool. At first I wasnt too sure if I would be able to write this for my blog but i think it actually counts. We used a lot of the machinery that took a lot of work and there were a lot of walking around for three hours.

Beep test swag

Took a bad selfie after beep test. Scored an 11 on the beep test, 11 on t test, 0 on flexibility, 6 on balance test, 20 push ups, and a minute on the body bridge.

Hill run

The other day we ran the hill run which I always find very difficult. This one was especially difficult cause the hill we were running on was very steep. I ended up running a 9 with josh which was one below what I wanted but I felt like I really pushed myself.

Community run

Today we ran the community run which is always one of my favourite things to do for fitness. I find it really hard to try not to walk during this though but today I motivated myself to make sure I didn't stop. In the end I scored a time of 19:20 which beat my goal of being under 20 minutes

mid term report


During PE this year I have shown I am ready for a variety of activities by always brining my gym strip to every single class and always having a positive attitude for whatever we are doing. I always try to put my best effort into fitness days during PE because that is when I feel that the activity we are doing will most benefit my overall health. The area I have struggled with is staying positive during an activity that I do not quite enjoy because it is hard to do something that you don’t like doing.

I feel I contribute to the overall success of the class by being a positive energy and trying to organize games whenever they aren’t getting started. I try to bring a positive attitude to this class because I know from past experience that PE sucks if no one is positive. I try to encourage all the other students in our class to put there best foot forward and to try there best.

I try really hard during fitness days and I always push myself physically and strive to do better than I have the day before. I enjoy the running fitness activities the most such as the 25 minute run and community run. My fitness goal for the rest of the year is to beat Mr. Neufeld in a beep test.

Leadership means to me to always try and be a positive influence upon others and also to try and organize teams and such when nothing of that sorts is happening. I think the best leader in our class has to be Keziah because she is always doing these things and is always a positive attitude.

Improvements I would like to make in PE this year is to overall do better in all of my fitness activities and to gradually increase how well I do overtime. I am most proud of my beep test score this year which was a 11.2.

Finally the letter grade I think best represents the effort I just described is an A (90%). 

Insanity

For insanity I felt like I tried really hard and I was definitely very tired. I feel like I gave it my all even though I had to stop a few times. I never really liked doing insanity to begin with but I always try my best.

Do you want to build a snowman?

The other day while it was still snowing me and my friends decided to go outside and build a snowman. However it did end up with us not only having to rebuild it twice but also a full scale snowball fight that ended with me being covered in snow.

For the day we were in the weight room me and Jarrod decided to try this workout but however we did not following it exactly. For starters we began on the bikes just as a warm up and then we did some push ups. Thrn we went through the exercises in this video twice with increased weight compared to the girl in the video. Finally we finished off on the bikes as a cool down.

PE Beep Test

This is me in a video of us doing a plank right after the beep test. I got exactly a 10 on the beep test and I did twenty push ups. Also I got 7 touches on the balance boards and scored a 0 on the flexibility test.
