Mini Conference

During the mini conference I attended Coach Babjack's presentation on strength and flexibility.  This presentation was very helpful, Coach Babjack talked about periodization of workouts and other methods of increasing strength and flexibility.  This is very important for me to know since I plan to coach in the future.  I hope to be able to prevent injuries and to get my athletes to maximize their potential.

EDU 255 Lab B1




This lab was alot different then the first, although I have played frisbee, I don't know it as well as football which I taught the first lab.  I think this lead to a few of my problems, I didn't feel as successful during this lab.  I didn't realize until after I finished that I had forgotten a whole intriduction, signal for attention, statement about expectation, "hook," and safety statement.  I do think I demonstrated successfully using "DEAD," but I do think that i should have done my demonstrations in the middle of the group so that everyone could see me.  I didn't give as much feedback as I should have.  I think my voice was a lot better during this lab compared to the last.  This lab was very helpful, it opened my eyes to a lot of the things that I need to work on.

EDU 255 Lab A2




I think this experience was better than the first.  This time we had a chance to think about what we were going to do.  I noticed that I did use a hook when mentioning throwing the ball and having it seem as if it was shot down like a duck.  From the start I was fumbling my words which disappointed me.  I tried to use 'DEAD,' and I think that I was successful in doing so.  One thing that I wanted to work on was my voice, I know that I need to speak alot louder and more clear.  I think I did an 'OK' job of giving feedback and I thought it was good that I went over what I taught at the end.

First Day

I wasn't sure what to expect, I have realized that the physical education field is becoming more of a technological field.  It seems that using technology in a physical education setting could be very useful.
