If your going to convention, make sure you come to the FIT CLUB workout Saturday morning, it is going to be GREAT! If your not going to convention have a great weekend too:)

Unit Plan

Today we are working on our Unit Plan.  How is everyone who has 352 feelings about this assignment?  I am starting to STRESS!! Im trying to break up the Unit Plan a little at a time.  How is everyone doing on theirs? I am sure everyone is excited to almost be done with the semester. Hope everyone does well on their Unit Plan.

Team Work

When teaching students, how can a class get to know each other and trust each other?  In 352 today we played many different team building activities.  I never realized how important certain activities including strategies and corporation with all of the members of the team.  To get the task done in an orderly fashion students must work hand and hand to accomplish their goals.  I cannot wait to teach these activities to my students.  How does everyone else feel about teaching team work to their students?

Assessing Students

Today in Foundations of PE we had a debate on whether or not teachers should use assessments to grade their students or not.  I feel like students should be assessed. If they are not assessed they how can the student be working to their maximum.  I feel  if a student is assessed and able to work on their weaknesses they will excel to a greater level.  As a teacher, I would want my students to excel in any activity they are trying to accomplish.  How does everyone else feel about assessing his or her students?
