  1. The Big Picture
       In my opinion, it's a very necessary thing to learn, especially to stay fit. From what I can understand, I'm being taught to test my limits, my very best, and bend that limit to make my best, better.
      To me PE allows me to become more fit, find my strengths and weaknesses, an improve on them.
If I had to grade myself I would give myself a B or a G/S/N

2. Your Body and Health
    I generally dislike feeling weak or not able to do anything. So I use this to my advantage and push myself as much as I can.
    It used to be frustrating and annoying exercising as it would simply hurt, but now it feels great to get the burning sensation, knowing my limits are being pushed, and my blood is pumping at such a rate.
     Generally I have mental blockades from thinking about what others might think about me, but I am able to overcome them by telling myself it doesn't matter, and to push through. It helps giving yourself a motivational speech. 
     In terms of how healthy I feel, I would have to say I'm alright, but there's always room for improvement.

3.Your Attitude and Effort
    I do come as much as I can and I think I have only missed a few days because of sickness.
I have only forgot proper clothing a few times if I remember correctly, and the only reason I wouldn't change is because I'm not having a good day. For how I embrace what activities we do, I generally enjoy it as it is fun as most classes are. On fitness days is when I push myself until I can't. If I have an elevated heart rate  I keep on pushing. I usually try and stay positive and try to encourage a few others to work their hardest. I'm not sure if I make much of a difference though.

4. Growing/Learning/Goals
   I am quite happy to say there has been improvement in how much I can run. I don't exactly have any goals other than get stronger, but I think I might set a few. I learned that adrenaline can be better than anything for energy to run. And if I chose to change anything about how I used to go about, I would probably change my attitude, as I used to dislike P.E. If and when I do stop taking Active Learning, I plan on setting up a workout routine

  1. Hey Daniel,

    I'm really glad your perspectives on physical activity has changed for the better recently. Your attitude and effort are outstanding in Active Learning this year and I would argue that based on the consistency to which you perform at that high level you would definitely be an 'A'.

    Without fail you reach maximal exertion in fitness activities and demonstrate a sense of enthusiasm for any other recreational activities are happening. You really have been a wonderful presence in our class and a pleasure to teach!

    Mr. Pederson
