What I Learned....

In my opinion, I never realized how much literacy played a role in my subject area. First of all, as an educator I realize in the world of physical education it is very easy to fall into the "roll out the ball" trap. Incorporating literacy and critical thinking into physical education can provide my students with a better opportunity to process the skills and information while having the ability to retain and use the information later on in life. Also, in taking this class I have learned a lot about the student's point of view. There are many different types of learners, and having a teaching style that only caters to one type of learning is never going make me a successful teacher. In recognizing how students learn, I will be able to see what they see, and hopefully in turn make any lesson I teach challenging but achievable to all my students.
