Selena Bracemente S/95/14 The effective teaching and literacy practices my IMT use is first having goad classroom management. The students know what he expects every time the step fot in the gym ar the ‘woight room. They are respectful to him and he returns the same respect to them. He has his ‘objectives for the day posted on the board along with a motivational quote which correlates with a life talk during the class period. He demonstrates and uses visuals when Leaching $0 students can see how to de the exercise properly. He also uses students to do the demonstrating but only if they are comfortable doing the task. He always the student if they are okay with it before making them demonstrate in front of the class. There isn’t a lot of literacy practices in the classroom. He dees use videos to show the stucents why a certain exercise is 1 important to them, An example would be when he was showing the freshman football team how to clean. it’s an explosive move using a barbell and you use a lot of force to get the bar from the ground and catch it above your shoulders. My IMT showed the students a video of a varsity football player using that type of movement during the game and making a good tackle. Even though it's not a book it's a type of autside source to help the students buy into what he wanted them to get out of doing the exercise and how it could help them in a game. My IMT teacher could improve on incorporating mare outside sourees and books into class. There isn’t atextbook assigned to physical education but he could still se articles and journals to holp introduce a concept. Physical education doesn't always have to be anti reading or homework assignments. The teacher will use writing papers as a form of punishment or a way ta make up an absence. It makes using literacy in the classroom frowned upon, The = L-~ students gravitate away from wanting to read articles in the classroom because they see it as being in trouble and not a positive thing. He can also make @ word wall fer the students because they go over so many different concepts from different sports and weight lifting moves. | think his teaching styles are cffective because almost every student gives him his undivided attention when he is talking and teaching. In my own classroom | am going to use magazine and journal articles in my teachings especially when introducing new sports. There are all different kinds of ranges of students background knowledge for different sports and assuming students will know about the same amount of stuff is impossible, | would do a brief history on the sport and how it was invented and why they started playing. Also before a unit | would have the students create a KWL chart to see what they already know, what they would want to know, and atthe end of the unit have ‘them fill out what they learned as a way to check for understanding. | could also use it as 2 type of formal assessment instead of using their skill level as an assessment. I'm going to assign readings a few times a month to have students learn about different athletes who have made an impect on society and in people's live and have them discuss what they eauld do to improve their own lives or help somebody else. | would use literacy to focus more on real life, the stuff that goes on outside of class and have them read books and magazines about sports, health, or Whatever interests them along the lines of physical education and physical activity.
