School Activities • Many activities have been planned throughout the school year which you are encouraged to attend. You are required to attend at least one school activity sometime in the semester. You are welcome to attend them all though. • Most of the activities take place on Fridays every second week. You will be informed of the activities through your TA. A list of activities are posted under the content link in your course.
PE10 – Heart Saver Course (CPR) • Students in PE10 are required to take a four hour Heart Saver Course. The course will be held at RVVS in Airdrie. Refer to your course schedule to confirm that date. • If you do not attend, you must take course on your own at your own cost. • If you already have CURRENT certification, you may provide me with a copy of the certificate and you will get credit for the course.
PE20 and PE30 – Leadership Hours According to the PE20 curriculum, students will... "apply, monitor and assess leadership and followership skills related to physical activities, and demonstrate an understanding of leadership skills related to implementing physical activity events or programs in the school and/or community.” 5% of your mark is designated for leadership hours. You will be required to inform your teacher of your plan to fulfill your leadership hours this semester. You may help coach a community soccer or basketball team, volunteer in a local school PE class or contact your local community center or YMCA. They are always happy to have volunteers help our with their programs.
Leadership Hours - continued Leadership marks will be designated as follows: Leadership Hours Mark Assigned (out of 5%) 1 hour……1% 2 hours…...2% 3 hours…...3% 4 hours……4% 5 hours……5% When you have completed your leadership hours, your supervisor will need to write a short letter outlining your duties and theamount of time that you contributed. You can leave this letter at the school for your teacher or have your supervisor fax it in. Your supervisor can also email your teacher directly. The name of your supervisor and a contact phone number must be included.
What is the Activity Record? • The document that you must complete noting your activities. • Due every two weeks – due dates on course schedule and in the check list. • Must be checked by your key parent who then emails the activity record to me.
The Activity Record #1. • 1. Activities: In the chart provided below, answer the following questions for each day: • a) What activity did I participate in? Provide detail in the chart below! • b) What dimension am I counting each activity under? (games, alternative environment, individual activities, dance, or gymnastics) Refer to the course outline to see what dimension your activity falls under. • d) Time I spent doing the activity? Be accurate.
Question #4 (PE20 and 30 only) • 4. Explain what you did specifically for each of your activities to address the outcomes you have identified above. • Here is an example of what a student might write about their swimming activity... • When I went swimming, I learned how to do the dolphin kick and to use the proper arm and shoulder movement to do the "butterfly" stroke. I therefore learned some basic swimming skills and applied what the instructor taught me while practicing the butterfly.(Note...this would explain why the student put an "X" under the first two learner outcomes above). I worked on my cardiovascular fitness because I was using my heart and lungs to circulate the oxygen while I swam and strength since the butterfly requires muscular strength to pull me through the water (functional fitness). I find that when I do an activity that improves my fitness level and tones my body, it improves my body image and well being because I feel better about myself and have more confidence. Swimming takes alot of effort on my part because of all the muscles that I am using and that it is quite tiring and the "butterfly" stroke is not easy (effort). When I swim, I'm always aware of safety factors such as not swimming alone and not to dive into shallow water (safety). This is an example of "active living" because I take my swimming lessons at the community pool (active living in the community).
Goal Setting • Specific – State exactly what you are aiming at. • Measureable - Measurable goals state what you want and when you want it. • Action Oriented - spell out exactly HOW you will achieve the goal. • Realistic - Realistic goals are possible • Timely - Timely goals give you enough time to achieve them, but not too much!
Goal Setting • 4. Did you achieve the goals that you set for this two week time period (Refer to Q#5 in your last activity record)? Explain. • Example of a student response: • I met my goal of learning a new stroke for swimming by taking a lesson on the "butterfly" stroke. • I met my goal of improving my cardiovascular fitness by walking at a fast pace while I walked my dog, so that my heart rate was in the lower end of my heart rate training zone. • I did not meet my goal of jogging 1 km. 3 times per week because the weather has been so cold...I'm going to try to jog with a friend so that it's not so easy to make excuses! :-) We also have a backup plan to do a cardio workout at the gym if the weather is poor.
Goal Setting 5. I have set the following three goals to achieve over the next two week period. (Make sure that your goals are attainable yet challenging and specific!) Example of a student response: 1. To jog with my friend Karen 1 km 3 time per week without stopping. 2. To set up a weight training program at the local gym which I will begin next week. 3. To meet some of the specific outcomes under the "Cooperation" outcome by playing basketball and volleyball with my friends.
#6. Home Schooling Web Site 6. a) Home Schooling Web Site: Over the past two weeks, I completed the following two activities from the Alberta Learning Home Schooling Web Site: Example of a student response: Dimension: Types of Gymnastics Outcome: Do It Daily Activity # 3 (pg. 2) *Demo of how to access activities on the web site.*
#6b. Home Schooling Web Site • 6b) If you were required to submit an assignment for your chosen activity, please submit it with this Activity Record. If you were not required to submit an assignment, please write below what you learned or reflect on how you enjoyed the activity. • For activity #3 in the "Gymnastics" dimension and the "Do It Daily" outcome, I wrote a research article on how gymnastics applies to everyday life. It is attached with this Activity Record.
