4. What is a self-directed learner?
You have 6 minutes – free write.
What does “self-directed learner” mean to you?
What is most difficult about self-directed learning?

5. Self-Directed Learning
My thoughts:
Creates a “adult atmosphere” – similar to joining the workforce, or attending college
Not beneficial for all learning types and students

6. What is Advanced PE Focuses on lifetime physical education
You are encouraged to utilize the facilities that are offered at the Downtown YMCA as well as the YMCA close to your home.
The majority of this course will focus on fitness/wellness – this is not a sports/games course.
This should be a self-directed learner course
If you know that you can not handle being unsupervised at times, you should consider a different course.
A goal-based and mastery course

7. The YMCA’s Expectations
You are a member of the YMCA:
Practice safety
Be respectful
Only use free-weights with a partner
Use one piece of equipment at a time
Use your “indoor voice”
Secure your belongings
Ask questions
Use the family locker room only
Do not loiter
Any Questions?

8. My Expectations Learn something new Have fun Find “your thing”
Understand the importance of lifetime wellness
Exercise with a partner or individually
Stick to your 6-week fitness plan
Track your workout
Represent your school in a positive manner
If you are having an issue, speak with me about it.

9. Non-Negotiables
You should be in the school lobby for attendance on time.
We will walk to the YMCA together as a class
Changing clothes at the beginning of class
You should be out of the locker room within 8 minutes after arriving; failure to do this = a tardy; 3 tardies = referral

10. Non-negotiables
Within the YMCA – I am ultimately responsible for your behavior
The “it’s my membership, so I can do what I want” mindset should not exist.
The basketball gym and racquetball studios can be used the last 20 minutes of the class period; never play pick-up games with YMCA people. **

11. Non-Negotiables
This is not a study hall – homework for other classes is not an option; even if you are sick, you are coming to the YMCA with us.
Save your breath, do not ask. If you are too sick to go to class, you are too sick to be at school.
At this time, the 7th floor may not be used.
If you are using cardio equipment, it needs to be on the 4th floor.
You may NOT use general exercise bikes (spin cycles are different)
At no time may you use the WOW room or yoga studios.

12. Free Weights vs. Weight Equipment
If you have limited or no experience with weight lifting; please see me on the first day in the gym.
Free weights are loose weights: dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells
Weight machines are similar, but are guided by a machine – 4th/ 5th floor.

13. Swimming
You may use the pool for a change of pace or to supplement your workout.
Proper bathing suits should be worn
Girls one piece, boys gym shorts do not count
I need to have a personal conversation about you going to the pool – do not assume I know
You are there to swim laps, not lounge.

14. Racquetball and Basketball
The last 20 minutes of your workout may be devoted to basketball games.
Shooting free throws, HORSE, waiting to get in a game, etc. are not basketball games.
Racquetball is limited to a pair after you have completed the racquetball homework
The last 20 minutes of class

15. Tom’s Individual Total Body Workout
Disobeying a class and/or YMCA procedure
Displaying behavior that does not represent our school in a positive manner.
Caught in an area in which you should not be in
Excessive resting
Anything else at my discretion.

16. Negotiables
Your wellness goal
Your workout plan
Your workout partner

17. Additional Procedures
Changing clothes at the end of class
You can exit to the locker room 12 minutes before the end of class
This give you 10 minutes to change,
Additional 2 minutes plus the passing period to walk to your next class)
Example: 1st block 9:30 therefore, you can leave to change at 9:18 and we plan to leave come to the lobby no earlier than 9:25
When you exit the YMCA, we will leave as a group.
Don’t be that guy….

19. Additional Procedures
If you arrive to school late and we are already at the YMCA – check-in with the office, have them call my cell phone, and I will come pick you up. Never walk to the YMCA alone.
If you have an appointment during class time, discuss this with me ASAP, we will make arrangements.
A teacher can not hold your grade hostage and keep you from going to your next class – if this occurs and we have already left you at school; go to the office, have them call my cell phone.

20. Additional Procedures
If you do not feel well, discuss this with me. We can likely find an activity for you to do that will work for the day.
My class is not a study hall; don’t ask. The answer is no.
I take attendance 3 times during each class, be where you need to be each time.

21. Again…
Never walk to the YMCA alone

23. SMART Goals
Time to create a goal

24. Goal-Setting
Setting a goal is easy and can help you take large or overwhelming tasks and help you accomplish them
When setting a goal remember the acronym S.M.A.R.T
S - specific
M - measurable
A - achievable
R - relevant
T - time-bound

25. Goal-Setting S - Specific
The first step to setting any goal is to determine what specific change you would like to make
This is the same with a wellness goal
S - Specific
M - measurable
A - achievable
R - realistic
T - time-bound
For example, the change I may want to make is, “to read more literature”

26. Goal-Setting
The next step to setting a goal to ensure it is measureable
S - specific
M - Measurable
A - achievable
R - realistic
T - time-bound
Keep in mind, my original statement can not specifically be measured, so I want to ensure that it can be measured.
In this situation, I should ask myself, “how much?”
“I want to read two new non-fiction books each month”

27. Goal-Setting A - Achievable
The next step to setting a goal to ensure it is, achievable
S - specific
M - measurable
A - Achievable
R - realistic
T - time-bound
At this point I want to consider if my goal is achievable.
Often when a person sets a goal and they do not accomplish it, it is because may not be attainable in my current situation.
Using my current goal, “I want to read two new non-fiction books each month.” I would mainly look at my weekly schedule and make sure I have enough time to read two books.

28. Goal-Setting R - Relevant
The next step to setting a goal to ensure it is, relevant
S - specific
M - measurable
A - achievable
R - Relevant
T - time-bound
Now is the time I should reflect on if the goal is relevant or important to me.
Keep in mind, if I set a goal that may not be relevant to my daily life, I may not be as motivated to accomplish it.
Using my current goal, “I want to read two new non-fiction books each month.” I would want to make it relevant to me.
My updated goal would look this “I want to read two new non-fiction books about health and wellness each month.”

29. Goal-Setting T - Time-bound
The final step to setting a goal to ensure it is, time-bound
S - specific
M - measurable
A - achievable
R - relevant
T - Time-bound
Before I begin working toward accomplishing my goal, I want to consider a few things:
Is there a set accomplishment or it an on-going goal?
In my case, I do not have an end, or specific number books I want to read, so my goal is ongoing.
Can I break my goal-up into smaller pieces to make it easier to accomplish?
In my case, I can break my goal up into smaller pieces – leaving the goal open to the entire month provides me with too large of an open timeframe;

30. This breaks the goal up in to time-bound increments
Goal-Setting
So considering these questions, my time- bound SMART goal would look like this:
“I want to read for 30 minutes each day before bed in the hope to finish two new non-fiction books about health and wellness each month.”
Considering my schedule, this time of day makes it attainable
This breaks the goal up in to time-bound increments
Relevant to me
Measureable
(I will know each month if I accomplished it)

31. A daily workout should contain both
Optional
A daily workout should contain both
Workout logs are due on the final class day bi-weekly.

32. Basic Vocabulary and Methods
Reps. (short for repetition) – this is the act of doing something
Sets – A group of reps
Example 3 sets of lbs. 150lbs)
Intensity – Resistance against you while moving
RPM – Repetitions per minute
Try to increase by 10% each week

33. Performance Assessment
Along with your 6-week goal, I would like you to select an area of fitness to self-assess (this can be similar to your 6-week goal)
This is a semester-long target
Cardiovascular Endurance: 1 Mile Run (treadmill)
Muscular Strength and Endurance: 1 Minute Sit-up or 1 Minute Push-up
You are not graded based on your progress on this.
You will assess yourself twice each 6 weeks

34. Find a partner A partner is one other person (pair)
A group of three is not a pair.
This person should have a similar goal
If your goal is too unique or you think you would do better on your own, that is fine.
