PE update & Dance week

It is time to post an update on your progress in PE so far this semester.  Ideally, you will have been posting short blog posts as updates after fitness days, including fitness testing scores - including the context of the day (Was it a personal best?  Were you sick? Explain your results...)

FIRST POST TODAY - Please write about Dance Week - What was your attendance during this week?  Why?  Describe your participation throughout the week.  What was your favourite part?

As a PE department we have worked hard to create a culture that values student voice and personal responsibility in owning your experiences in PE.  That means that you often have some freedom within the structure of the classes on choice days and group fitness days to make your own decisions about how hard you are going to work & what activity you are going to participate in.  Some of you are taking this responsibility and running with it - really pushing yourselves, being good examples for younger students, showing leadership & making class better for those around you.  This is what makes a PE class successful.

For your SECOND POST TODAY, write about the following -
a)  your attendance & daily effort (being prepared, willing to participate)
b)  the energy that you bring to class
c)  how you deal with participation in activities that you are not very skilled at (being outside of your comfort zone)
d)  what can YOU do to make our class better from now on?

We will be completing a report card progress post soon and will start interviews next week.
