Well, first off i have to say i had no idea what a blog is or used for. I have seen a movie with a girl that used a blog to express her feelings but she was being bullied in school and posted not good things on her blog. I am not much about the "social" internet stuff. Yes, I have facebook but that is to keep in touch with friends and family that are not living in the same state as myself. I am VERY surprised that I now have a blog myself but i kind of have to! I had no clue how to even start a blog but once i figured it out I had fun creating a page that reflects my personality. I do, however, plan on using this blog for more use than just to blog about a book I am reading. I have a lot of experiences that others don't and i will have no problem sharing them. I want this blog to help myself understand certain topics better and to help others understand. The thing that makes me nervous about this is who all can see this......so to those don't put personal information up on these blogs! I think it is interesting that to post blogs that i have to go through my email, i was really thrown off with this! HA! Shows how technology savy i am!! For those who still are confused about what a blog is here is a site to help you understand (don't be embarrassed i had to read this!) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog. I am going to school to be a Physical and Health Education Teacher. So, most people tell me "why that career?" Guess what?! I am not about making millions of dollars and be in a job that i completely hate! I love kids and they are our future, so we best give them a good path of success AND happiness. I want to be a teacher that actually makes a difference in a students life. I truly feel like if a child finds a physical activity it will keep them out of trouble and help them make better decisions. I won't be teaching just the basic sports because we are all not the same. A blog that i found that i will keep in touch with is a blog for physical education teachers http://www.thephysicaleducator.com/blog/.
For me I played soccer for about 15 years now and i do coach soccer too (which helped me lead to my career). But other activities for me is fishing and shooting and archery. The mountains is a place of happiness for myself.
It seems that technology has taken over the new generation, i mean a brand new born baby can get on a tablet and know how to work it! And I'm over here trying to figure out where the dang power button is! (Ok I'm not that bad but it is the truth!) From my first blog, which was a test to make sure it actually worked, i talked about how do i teach reading/writing for Physical education? I do have a few ideas not but I'll tell you later! When i was going through school in my younger age i was not excited about reading or writing because the teacher was BORING! SO, I need to change this and make assignments and learning fun and take it a different way than the traditional way because it is not working well for most students. I, to this day, do not like reading but i can write when it is something that i am interested in. For example, last semester i was taking Exercise Physiology and our final was a paper based on terms throughout the semester but had to come up with our own story using all terms. I was thinking what in the heck?! I sat and thought about it for a while and a light bulb came on! I am kind of a wierdo and LOVE watching zombie movies and anything that has to do with a virus or CDC stuff. So, I wrote my story on a zombie apocalypse (Hey i thought it was good!). So, this made me think being a teacher I will have my students write their own story using terms (to make sure they are learning).
Lets see where this goes!! :}
