Artifact: PED 201: Test for Gross Motor Development (Lab 3)
Element: 1.2
Date: Spring 2012
Reflection: In PED 201 we went to St. Mary's for our Labs and each week we had to visually test the student's motor skills on something new. In this Lab we worked on the leap, horizontal jump, and slide. This is important as a physical education teacher because we need to be able to asses students on physical aspects of our work. Students should be able to master the basic motor skills by their graduation year.
Artifact: PED 201: Test for Gross Motor Development (Lab 4)
Element:1.2
Date: Spring 2012
Reflection: In PED 201 we did an assessment during our Labs at St. Mary's Elementary School. In this lab we worked on the overhand throw and catch. These assements will play a major role for my future as a Physical Education teacher. It was important to learn and practice doing these assessments because it will eventually become my job.
