Role as a Teacher

As a teacher, it is my duty to make sure that the student’s understand what exercise is and how it can help them all throughout their lives. Also, it is my job to make sure that each student understands the proper way to do every exercise that they will be learning throughout the year.

Project-Based Learning Project-based learning is a approach to

teaching in which students look at real-world problems and challenges. It is believed that with this kind of learning experience students want to learn on a deeper level about what courses they are studying.

I will use this in my classroom by having the students work on projects about fitness and exercise so they can understand and see how important it is in life if you want to stay healthy.
