Semester Reflection

Believe it or not the year is over, This will be your last blog. We do not have a final exam in Physical Education. I would like to think the last 18 weeks have been useful to you in some way.  I hope you not only learned proper form on many of the lifts but also the importance of resistance training as it relates to long term health.

A great practice to get in the habit of early in life is that of reflection. When you reflect on things you take a moment to look back and figure out what was good, bad, or just different. This practice will keep you from making the same mistakes over and over and will help you figure out what things work for you as an individual. We are all different and things effect us and work for us in different ways.

For your final blog, I want you to take a moment to really think back throughout the semester and list for me three things you learned or just liked about the semester and three things you did not like or wish you had learned. Feel free to speak your mind. I use this reflection to help plan my future classes
