Interim

I believe I deserve an G. I have been a more healthier person this sem than last sem. I have gained 5 pounds of muscle and have gotten faster and stronger. My attendance is I believe has been perfect so far this sem. I think I bring an enthusiastic and high energy of attitude to the class. My work ethic is always to get better. I put in effort not only on fitness days but regular choice days/Class activities as well. I've always brought my pe strip that isn't even a question if I brought it or not. 

My leadership for being the older and tall guy in my class, I think it's alright. 
There's room for improvement. But overall my leadership is to help the younger kids out and lead the class in a good way. My commitment to going to the gym and being the best basketball not just being good at ball but being the best is my motivation.

 My commitment to going to the gym is to get bigger and stronger and faster so I beat my rivals, opponents. I have a diet plan that controls how much I should eat and what to eat/drink. I've got supplements to help me as well. I am continuing to rehab my knee. I am still experiencing pain but that's just the road I have to go through.

 My goals:
1) to be the best player in basketball in school and province
2) To get faster and stronger
3) Transition to be a Point Guard
4) average 25PPG 10 Rebounds 5 Assists  
5)Lead team to provincials , Surreys, Fraser's, not just lead them but win them all
6) Win RCMP
7) Get as many MVP and POG awards to
Get noticed as the best
To achieve these goals it's about practice."talkin bout practice"- Allen overdone hahah. But that's all it is practicing playing Summer club and luckily the break is coming and I can improve my overall game even more and become the best I can be. I don't just think about myself getting better, I want my teammates to get better. I bring them to the gym to get better in basketball and in their physical life. I have improved my mid range by a lot. I know how hard I worked on my shot. I just need to continue. I promised myself that I would transform into the star that I want to be. Make my parents proud of me that their son has lead his team to championships. Not only that I want to win next year, tired of losing 2 years in a row. First round frasers kicked out. Surreys first round got kicked out of contention. I believe next year is going to be a good year. I promise you that, I promise to take Sullivan Heights to the next level. People think sulli sucks in sports were just an art school. I want to make them rethink that.

Well this is my blog

G.Athwal "Grade 9" active learning

The Big Picture
-My thoughts about active learning is that it was a good thing to start.  Before people only did pe because they wanted an A. But now if you look people are having fun and enjoying or while sweating and trying instead of being forced to do it for an grade.
- Being fit and trying is important to me. I try to do my best on fitness days because i know it helps me long and short term.  If I don't try I get a guilt feeling. 
-I would give myself an A/G. I try to be a leader in class because I'm older and the grade 8's are new. I try to start up the activities too when there's nothing going on. I help with the clean up too and organize the teams sometimes.

Your Body and Health
My motivation to be fit is basketball. To be honest basketball is my life. I always want to improve and be better at the end of the day.  I had  an serious injury this term. I had an LCL sprain. It was really hard for me to step out and watch the class participate as well watching my teammates play basketball. I had determined to come back not the same but faster and stronger. I had 8.9 beep test which was already low for me . I usually get 10-11 in between.  When I came back I had a beep test score of 10.9. For me that was exceptional., as I was coming off an  knee sprain. This was really hard for me to come back to be honest. I had an injury last year to but that was my chest. This year it was my knee. When I did come to class, I really wanted  to participate. So you told me I should go to the weight room or do the exercise which doesn't involve your knee. So I did participate with my knee at fitness days.

Attitude
My attitude towards any gym class is great in my view. I come prepared  mentally and physically. I always have my pe strip. I always have the mentality to participate and try,  I even focus on helping the  younger kids . We were in this position  last year and I got a lot of help from my grade 9 friends. I would also say I bring an positive attitude. I try to be enthusiastic when it's necessary and be serious when needed to.

Growing/Goals
I believe I am growing in most areas of my body, and physique. I am more active then last year, because I know what it takes to go to the next level in basketball. My goals that I have set were getting at least a 11 in the next beep test. I have gotten an 9 then 10 so I believe I am on my way. I also believe that one of my goals is to get better in basketball and my vertical. I have been practicing with my program I have for my vertical jump. And for basketball I'm on the school team. I play centre but now I want to transform into a guard which will higher my chances of going further.
