SMART SLEEP GOAL

I want to make sure I’m in bed by 10p.m every school night. I will manage my work more effectively so that I’m able to hit the bed on time. Sleeping on time will help me feel emotionally healthier and boost my growth. I will make sure to check in on how I’m doing before December break to see how this change shows its benefits. As a reward, I will get the weekends to sleep later.

Movement Description for Accompanying and Evading

TOUCH : 2 handed carry while moving, from ground and upright positions; fluid running motion with ball in front to enable passing options on both sides; using misdirection and fakes effectively http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-V_I3OufSY

BASKETBALL: 2 handed catch, control while dribbling; effective scanning to see the field of play at all times; being aware of space and changing direction to create, or eliminate open spaces https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMtY-dxN82U

FLAG FOOTBALL : catching a spiral pass downfield, controlled carry while evading, executing patterns to optimize space and evade defenders http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPqmmsjOdtU

FITNESS DECIDE Model

DECIDE : My FITNESS Plan

D Define the Problem	Select the FITNESS COMPONENT or SKILL COMPONENT you’d most like to improve this year. (Fitness: Cardio, Muscular Strength, Muscular endurance, Flexibility, Body Composition.core strength) (Skill: Balance, Agility, Coordination, Power, Speed, Reaction Time) Explain why you chose this component. I chose this component because I want to improve on my mile time to at least 8:25, and I want to improve on my overall stamina for all sports. Create and link a short video (10-15 seconds) that illustrates your chosen component. (using your laptop, iPad, iPhone, or other device). Upload to youtube and paste youtube link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUl0bcCqZWg
E Explore the Alternatives	List 3 other Fitness/Skill Components that you could also improve and explain how they will benefit your overall fitness: Skill: speed (will help me also with my reaction time, and will help train me with my cardio) 2. Fitness: core strength (this is great for body composition and balance as well because these skills involve pure core strength in order to balance and hold the body in a certain position.) 3. Fitness: flexibility (warms up my muscles and joints and allows for a better session. Loosens muscles that are tight. Having a flexible body can help me just overall perform better, as I would have loose muscles and maximum blood circulation.
C Consider the Consequences	Identify 2 positive and 2 negative possible outcomes as a result of your choice: (Ask yourself … how risky is each alternative? What are the chances of success? How would it affect my short term fitness? How would it affect my fitness long term?) Positive Working on my cardio means I will be able to sustain energy and fitness on cardio related activities for a longer period of time. 2. I will be able to improve my mile time and strengthen my cardio endurance Negative 1. If I just focus on my cardio, I may be weakening other components of fitness because I’m not practicing those. 2. Being fit doesn’t just mean in terms of cardio stamina, there are many other components that won’t get better if I leave them alone so my overall performance won’t be that strong
I Identify Values	This decision is important to me because.......... (Why do you value fitness?) I value fitness because I know how important it is for my body. Without fitness, there is a very high chance of diseases and problems later on. The highest percentage of the reason why people die in America is because of lack of fitness (even higher than smoking or drinking!!) Also, being fit overall just helps with a person’s confidence and self-esteem. I want to push myself this year to improve my mile-time, and if I am able to improve on my cardiovascular endurance, I will approach PE more confidently and positively.
D Decide and Act	Create an action plan for improvement. Outline a plan for a week of fitness activity that will improve your chosen component. Creat a video (10-15 seconds) of your chosen activity to help illustrate your plan. Day 1: Pilates (20 min) + 2 laps around the SAS track in the morning (with 5 min warm-ups) Day 2: Pilates (20 min) + 10 min exercises (dynamic and static) Day 3: Swimming (60 min) Day 4: Pilates (20 min) + gym (60 min) Day 5: pilates (20 min) + 2 laps around track in morning (with 5 min warm-ups) Day 6: gym (60 min) Day 7: pilates (20 min) and exercises (10 min) I will run outside in the school mornings https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUl0bcCqZWg I will do pilates to improve my flexibility, core strength, muscular endurance, body composition, and also stamina I will swim and go to the gym as part of my major workouts to improve cardio I will make sure to continue doing warm-up exercises and stretches to keep my muscles ready for exercise and improve many other fitness and skill related components.
E Evaluate the results	My goal was to improve a specific fitness component. I will know that my decision and action plan has been effective when......... The mile-times throughout the year will be evidence for this. If I am able to improve bit by bit on my mile times and overall stamina, then that means that my decide plan for improving my cardio is effective.
