Basketball was indeed a great physical education class. Basketball is not only all
about skills, but also all about values such as respect, patience, discipline and many
other values that we can learn in playing basketball. The most important thing about this
class is that I was able to enhance my overall basketball skills and learn some essential
rules and principles about the sport I love to play the most. Since I was very young I’ve
been playing basketball with many other people. I’m not that skilled but ever since it is
the only sport that I love the most. It is the thing that I’ve always wanted to do, playing
basketball makes me feel good and also it teaches me on how I am going to improve
my skills. Basketball can make friends and develop teamwork with teammates, but
unfortunately we can’t experience such things due to this pandemic.

Throughout this semester, basketball as a physical education class is indeed an

exciting subject for me. At the start I was expecting that I could learn a lot about
basketball, and truly it is that I was able to learn some fundamental skills, rules and
principles in basketball which I know are very important for me to enhance my
basketball skills. Every activity given was a very fascinating thing since it is where I can
test my skills and where I can show what I’ve learned. Performing the activities was a
great help for me to determine where I am having difficulty and what skills I must
develop. I’ve also experienced difficulty in performing some of the activities such as the
space where I must perform the activity. Due to some restrictions and protocols
mitigating COVID-19 basketball courts were closed and there’s no other way to perform
the activity but only inside or outside the house with a very limited space. With that we
can’t be able to perform the activities properly. But although I’ve experienced difficulties
in performing some of the activities, the most important thing is that I’ve learned a lot
throughout this semester. I came up with some realization that if we really wanted to
learn there’s always a way for us to learn and to develop our skills. As a learner that is
eager to learn I’ve realized that I must be invincible from the hindrances that hinders me
to learn, learning can come up in many different ways just always seek for the solution
rather than focusing on the problem.

At the end of this class I am very grateful that I was able to learn different skills,
rules and fundamentals of the sport that I love the most. This learning of mine can’t be
done without the help of our professor, with that I would like to express my special
thanks of gratitude to my instructor who gave his time and utmost effort for us to learn in
this subject. All the learnings that I obtain in this subject will be my asset to whatever
future I have in time. It was a great opportunity for me to learn how basketball is being
played by the professional players.
