Self Analysis & Impact Reflection
a) Analysis of Warm-Ups
Lead several warm-ups and analyze what went well or what didn’t? How receptive were the students? Were the students ready for the main activity? Why or why not? If you were not able to lead a warm-up, reflect on what you saw, or didn’t see.
I lead several warm ups while observing at Edward Bleeker Junior High School and I think that it was a great learning experience. I learned and improved from my first warm up that I lead. The first time I lead the warm up I wasn’t that confident so the students kind of took their time to complete each task and they didn’t take me as seriously.

After my experience at the high school level I realized that John Bowne’s physical education program didn’t prepare the students for life long utilization skills. Most of the physical education classes still consisted of team sports such as basketball and baseball. From what I learned at SUNY Cortland students should learn team sports at the middle school level. Cortland has also taught me that a lesson should consist of a instant activities, visual aids, demonstrations, checking for understanding, etc. At the John Bowne I didn’t see Mr. Levinson include any of these topics found in the C-9 in any of his lessons. Using instant activities, visual aids, demonstrations, and checking for understanding would have helped the students grow more during each unit at John Bowne. At
