Final reflection

Well this is it, in three days my high school education will be over. That's crazy to think about. I'm so happy that my school offers get fit and that i had the opportunity to take it in my senior year. When I was in the younger grades, I despised PE because I was afraid of what my fellow classmates would think of me, and I still. Get fit was a good choice for me to take because it allowed me to be around other girls that feel the same way that i do. This was my first year of taking PE that I actually participated in every activity. I have noticed that my physical activity has improved. In the beginning of the semester I could not run for a long period of time, but know I can. For example, last week we did the hill run for fitness and I did every single level without sitting out once! This is something I would not be able to do in the beginning of the semester. I've learned to push myself even when I feel like giving up. I have gotten better at the beep test and run longer during the community run. For my final grade, I think I deserve an A (90%) because i have improved my physical activity and participate.

Miss Representation

This is the second time I've watch Mia representation and I strongly believe that all girls in high school should watch it. At this age, so many young girls are dealing with peer pressure and wanting to fit in, and I think that they need to know that they have power and strength. One point I love in this movie is how society is so focused on the media, and that's why we are the way we are because we let the media control us, but we change this. We can stop watching shows like ET and access Hollywood and stop buying magazines. Also, when the movie was talking about how violence towards women in advertisements and video games can result in boys raping women, I never realized how true this is before. When a rape happens, news and media state how terrible it is - and of course it is but society needs to teach children to not do these things, instead of saying how proactive the victim was dressed. Raps is never the victims fault. Women should never be afraid to walk outside after 9'oclock. So instead of telling the victims what to not do, we need to teach boys to not rape.

Report card mark

Participation - I feel that I participate we'll in get fit. I need sit out of an activity and finish it which is something new to me this year. There are some activities we have done that i really need to push myself more in - for example the beep test, but I am working on it.

Field trips - my favorite field trip we have gone on was Sullivan elementary. I love children and working with them was a lot of fun. I also enjoyed snow shoeing which was a new experience for me and I would love to do it again.

Fitness - I have seen improvements in the length I run without stopping which is probably my biggest accomplishment as I do not like to run. I am trying to maker self not stop when I feel like I need to.

I feel good about myself in get fit and feel good about what I have accomplished. This is the first year of physical education that I'm actually trying. In the past, I would blow off gym class because I didn't want to embarrass myself in front of the class. I'm so happy Sullivan offers get it and that I have this opportunity.

As for my grad, I am terrible at self evaluation and usually give myself too low of a grade, but due to my ongoing participation but lack of pushing myself I will give myself an 87% (A).

Interm marks

I think that I have good work habits in get fit. This is the first time in a P.E class that I've actually participated in everything we do in class. I think that's because I really enjoy this class so I'm more motivated to do well. I haven't missed bringing my gym strip to class (so far) so I'm proud of myself for that. I can't wait to see what else happens in get fit!

Get fit field trips!

I have really enjoyed the field trips we've been on so far. Taekwondoe was so much fun! I liked punching the best 👊 skating was great too! I haven't been skating in a long time so it was really cool to go back to the rink where I took lessons. The snowshoeing field trip was the most interesting for me because its something I've never done before. It was really cool and I had a great time. I'm really looking forward to future get fit field trips!

get fit goals

I really think that this class is going to benefit me strongly. In the past I have not been one to enjoy PE and I think it was because I didn't feel comfortable working out in front of boys. In get fit, I have many friends plus we're all girls which is great! I hope to accomplish getting more in shape as I can't run without getting tired. I want to increase how fast I run as well as how many laps I do and decrease the time it takes me. I also want to be more toned by the time grad comes around./
