1a. Initial reflection:

What are your strengths as a PE teacher?

The ability to connect, engage, and relate. The ability to help students to learn socio-emotional skills and to create teaching moments for them to learn.

What is/are the area(s) that you think you might need to enhance your teaching practices?

To learn how to better scaffold lessons to make learning more tangible, and transferable for the students

Is there a particular class that you are taking this year that presents such an opportunity for you to try out strategies with? Why this class?

1 Integrity - there learning ability is very mixed, with more low to medium learning ability and 1-2 high ability.

What are some initial steps that you can think of in working towards the desired competency you wish for yourself? How do you want me to help you to achieve this?

Pedagogical Competence - link me up with courses, focus group discussions, learning journeys and attachment with other school teachers to view their teaching!

1. Dance module lesson 2-3: Identifying what is a good dance and creating their own sets of 8 counts

Testing out formative assessment strategies with 2I and 2J for Dance lesson 30th Jan

1. Work in pairs to develop a movement phrase with locomotor and non-locomotor movements using a combination of shape, level, pathway, force, flow and perform in various position (i.e., meet/part, near/far) and timing (i.e., mirror, match, lead/follow).

Replanning success criteria of the lesson:

More specific and measurable success criteria

I have 4 different types of movements in my choreography.

Question:

>> Plans to observe colleagues pedagogy teaching and learning from them (part of BT mentoring for homework to learn from colleagues)

>> Prepare feedback form (3 Praises, 2 questions and 1 suggestion for consideration) --> as a way of thanking them for opening up their classroom to you.

Picking out pe pedagogy from the colleagues lessons - either AFG and things they do well.

AFG are also good learning points.

Go in with Melissa to assess and observe the class.

Teaching moments for students to learn SEL:

Making healthy friendships and setting healthy boundaries

Conflict resolution methods

Good touch and bad touches/ how to set safe boundaries among friends, family and strangers

Individual goal setting and reinforcing instrinsic motivation for personal growth

Making learning can be more tangible and transferable for students

Ensuring that there is little disconnect between the skills that is taught and how the students can transfer their skills between different games and lessons and even application to life situations.

Ascertaining the learning abilities of 1 Integrity (updated)

Making simple assessment sheets for evidence of learning

Ascertaining their abilities by exact skill based on success criteria and by the task, not obedience.

3 key learning points of how the mentoring journey has helped you

3 key learning points of how the mentoring journey has helped you 

# data[].attributes.body
1. Learning beyond reading and writing. Expanded my learning to visually learn from others

2. Expanded my mindset to learn from everyone - high to low ability teachers (The ability to combine their strength was the motivation for me)

3. The availability of the mentor allowed me to have a safe environment to make mistakes, share freely and be open to learn more readily.

4. The realness and authenicity of my mentor made my work and learning alot easier. With the presence of someone who is willing to be authentic made it easier for me to also be daringly authentic and to learn through mistakes.

5. Although my mentor was critical with my learning and growth through conflicts at work, she was always constructive and factual, never judgemental and always trusts my character. This helped me to know that I can continue to plough and focus on my growth than focus on self-doubt or other nonsense gossipy stuff.

1. Attended courses on Constraints Led Approach (CLA) at PESTA

2. Created Edtech padlet for lower primary with the help of Christina to learn from her expertise

3. Learn from New teachers Bhanu on how to use Goosechase App

# data[].attributes.body
1. Students are taught strategies on how to manage friendships, boundaries and conflicts.

2. Through the year, there were many cases and teaching moments where the skills taught were reemphasized. Result - reinforcement of learning. Although seemingly more cases, but on a positive note, means more teaching moments and real setting to practice skills taught to reinforce

3. Met individual students like Dhia, Feli, Kharyah and Jazuli to work on individual goal setting and reinforcing of instrinsic motivation for personal growth

4. worked closely with 4I teachers also to support the students' behavioral needs and to ensure consistent teaching discipline styles across board.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Intentional inputs of WALT and WILF helped to make lessons clearer

2. Intentional BIG questions to get students to think critically during lesson time and gather their own learning (Inquiry learning)

3. ICT involvement like padlet and SLS

4. Assessment tools used e.g. Heatmap for 4I during PE lessons, ICT info gathering

# data[].attributes.body
1. Building of ready Assessment tools and resources (to improve teaching skills)

2. Building of ready ICT resources to use during lesson time (to improve teaching skills)

3. SEN skills to manage students in need more confidently

4. Counseling skills on how to work with students who need therapy to motivate them to work instrinsically

5. Teaching skills (how to be a teacher who teaches skills and be a heart teacher at the same time)

If I had thirty years or maybe more,

I’d want to live them like never before.

And you, dear Mel, you’ve shown me how,

To live life fully, here and now.

You’re always there, no matter the day, even if you only had seconds to stay,

Squeezing the hashbrowns into your mouth, while making your seat warm for only awhile.

Your mouth is busy eating but your ears are there, to listen without judgment and giving your time

You always have the right words, the right face and presence, to bring comfort like a little present.

Your strength shines bright, yet you’re unafraid, To share your truths, the scars you’ve made.

You listen intently, without a trace

Of judgment or doubt, just endless grace.

When life feels heavy, your voice is clear,

With feedback that helps me conquer my fears.

You never laughed nor sneered even with my nonsense trepidation.

You live with kindness, with open heart,

And teach me how to make a start—

To live with purpose, to love, to be

The best version of the real me.

You taught me strength in moments of fear,

To face the unknown, to persevere

You taught me how to rise above (gossips),

And fill my days with hope and love.

You showed me grace in every fall,

That failure's just a lesson, after all.

You taught me that I hold the key

To live my life authentically.

In every challenge, you've had my back,

Guiding me when the path turned black

You've given me more than words can say - A mentor, a light to show the way.

So, if thirty years is all I’ve got,

I’ll live them fully, without a second thought,

Because you’ve shown me what life’s about,

so live I will try to live it well, even if I have second doubts.
