As a p.e. major i naturally felt that this class was going to be a waste of my time. I did not see where a connection between reading and physical education could possibly be made. That being said i found after going through the assignments of the class that i could use literacy in my P.E. and health courses, and came to realize that integrating literacy into my classes would ultimately benifit my students. My job as a teacher is to educate my students to the best of my ability, i would hardly being doing so if i left literacy out of my lessons.
Throughout my time in this class there were many times i felt as though i did not belong, and then there were times were the thought of literacy in my classroom made perfect sense. The one thing that I have taken from this class is that every student should have an opportunity to learn, and that we as teacher are responible not only for teaching, but also recognizing when a student needs help, and to help those students in need.
