Arianna Kong's Final Assessment (Report Card)


For my final mark to have on my report card I know that I deserve and A because of many the  things that I feel like I have accomplished many goals throughout my grade nine year compared to my grade eight year. Here are my many reasons on why I deserve this grade using the Four Pillars to provide these evidences. Let's start off with the first pillar, Participation. Though the years of grade nine I feel like I have participated not only physically but mentally as well. For example when we play capture the flag or ultimate I put all my efforts and skill into the game, not only am I physically into the game but I think of many strategies on how to get the flag or frisbee on my side to win or get points. Throughout every PE day for the whole year I have only missed one or two days of P.E because I was sick but other than that I have a perfect attendance. Every P.E day I am always prepared by bring my gym strip to class and being ready on time to do fitness or choice on the days I don't have fitness. To tell you the truth I really don't like games (for example California kickball) where you have to up one by one because I have major stage fright and I feel the pressure on myself because I see my team doing great and here I am letting my team down by doing terrible. I joined dance to try and get over my stage fright but it only seems to be working just a tiny bit. That is why I don't like participating in these types of games but I try my hardest for my team because I don't want to let them down by not doing it at all. My motivation behind on what sport I pick during choice days are what I feel comfortable doing and my skill level with it. Although I have to improve on leaning new sports that I have no idea how to play so that I don't get bored all the time with the sport I regularly play. The next pillar I will be providing evidence from is my Social Responsibility and Contribution to the class. Every P.E class I always set a goal for myself to do great and try my hardest to finish. When I don't finish (accomplish) my goals I try and improve my ways to train harder and find a way to make it easier while having fun. Whenever I work with peers I always encourage and help them work harder to achieve their own goals to make them feel accomplished and they do the same for me. It helps me get motivated to do my best and try my hardest. Whenever we finish with any game or fitness activity I always try and help clean up and put away all the equipment just to help the teachers and students so it wouldn't make anything hard for them if they had to be in a hurry. Whenever it is choice (or any class game) and fitness day I always keep a positive attitude even if it's something I don't want to do, because not only does it help me get more motivated it also changes the attitude for my peers as well. Every time we have fitness I am always honest with what I get. For example every time we do the beep test I'm always honest with my score (it's always 7.5 for some reason) because you can actually see it throughout my body, if it's because you can see the sweat on my face or even if it's my hard breathing I know I have tried my best to accomplish this goal while being honest with what I have received. I'm honest with my scores because I have worked hard for them to begin with. The third pillar that I will providing information on is Healthy Living. To be honest with you during my past and even now I have a huge sweet tooth meaning I can eat anything unhealthy, which is never good. I always try my best to eat healthy as much as possible because not only does it help me throughout my fitness days it also helps me live a strong, happy and healthy life. I can say I have improved with my eating healthy habits (with a little help from my mom) and have learned to discipline myself when it comes to eating unhealthy food. My fitness scores like I have mentioned earlier for the beep test is a 7.5. I feel very happy with my scores although I know that I can do better. These scores help me understand that I need to exercise and be outdoors more. Every fitness day I have noticed that I have and still am getting netter which makes me very happy. I've gotten better at the pond run, hill run, beep test and even the community run (even though it was a shortened version). This tells me that I can accomplish anything when I put all my hard work and efforts into each and everyone of the fitness activities. Even if it's not fitness days I still like to try my absolute best and more importantly have fun. Throughout my two years of high school I have noticed my limitations when it cam to P.E fitness. Every time we did the locomotion I always feel sick to my stomach but I try and push through to the end. It gets hard with my limitations but I know with my peers help and support as well as my own motivation I know that I can and will push through it until the end. For my overall future plans with my healthy living I know that I have some things that I need to work on. For example I future fitness score goals. For the beep test I would love to get something over the 7.5 range and try to test how far I can push my body to go. I would also love to improve my eating healthy habits more as well. Lastly the final pillar I will be going through with you is the Reflective Skills. I feel like through my two years of high school I have explained myself without my many blogs and I feel like I have made a great progress while learning about myself as well. I feel like I can set up my goals just by looking back to see what I have said, done and what you gave me feed back on to determine my goals. All in all I feel like I do deserve an A and will keep deserving this grade by doing the best I can, working to meet my goals and accomplishing them with my friends, family and peers by my side.
