My Reflection

For the first time I walked into gym class, all that was in my head was What am I going to do to impress my teacher..? Then during the semester, I learned that gym class was meant to be for yourself, not to impress any other person. I was able to accomplish many things such as being able to plan my running intervals, go running on my own time, as well as trying new type of sports (football.) I think I improved quite a lot from the beginning of the year 'til now. What I like most about our gym class/period is that we had many choices on what to do for that day. I loved that I was able to play sports I was comfortable with and not being embarrassed about doing something wrong. One dislike from our gym class was that they mixed the grade 8 and 9 together. This was a good idea in a way that we get to work with different people but I feel like it was somewhat awkward for the grade 8 since we weren't used to having gym classes with different grades. Overall, my favorite part of our gym class was the fitness days. I love running and cardio exercises. I hope to do more of community runs and beep test to really help build up our stamina. Those were some pros and cons from our gym class (:
