Happy Mother's Day for all you people and for all you mothers who for whatever reason are reading this blog. All you mothers have done so much raising us and being there when it matters most. Special thanks to my mom who took some time out of her very special day to write a massive wall of text. Thnx mom! Anyways, here's my mom coming straight to you live from my house.
1) Have you read your son/daughters blog? Was there anything that surprised you or stood out immediately? What was your favourite part about reading his/her reflections? What did you learn about your son/daughter that you didn't know before reading the blog? What part of your child's growth/personality has been reaffirmed for you? What is missing in the blog that you think s/he should include for the teacher or peers? If you were evaluating him/her on his/her blogging efforts, what would you say? What would you give him/her out of 25? How did you come up with that number?
I have read my son's blog. What surprise me is that he has been very active and positive toward PE now since the PE teacher is using a different way to evaluate students. My son seems that he has been enjoying his PE class, and he also like his PE teacher very much. What I learned is that Andi actually has lots of things to write, his writing is actually wonderful. My son's personality has been changed a lot, he is more mature and more polite toward people, he shows his respect and care toward others. He needs to post more pics related to activities from outside of school. If I were evaluating his blogging efforts, I would say that he needs to post more often on the blog. I would give him 22 out of 25. I come up with that number because his attitude toward PE is very positive and active even though his actual physical condition is not excellent. In my opinion, positive attitude is much more important than everything else.
2) What do you notice about your child's health choices outside of school? What activity and or diet choices does s/he make on their own? What exercise/eating choices are encouraged buy the family/household? Did you see any evidence of this in his/her blog? What is missing that should be included? What improvements do you think your child could/should make to further his/her understanding and participation in his/her own health? What things can you as parent do to push this learning/practice? If you were to evaluate your son/daughter on their progress towards personal healthy life choices what would you say? What mark would you give them out of 25 for his/her efforts and demonstration of those efforts in the blog? How did you come up with that number?
I notice that my son should have more activities related to his health choices outside of school. Since we have lived in Surrey for only three years, he seldom does activity on his own, most time he spends his time on computer games after he finishes his homework. He does diet on eating especially for dinner time, he doesn't eat a lot, and he chooses to eat healthy. Eating more vegs and fruits is encouraged by the family. I didn't see any evidence of this in his blog. The more healthy eating habit may be included. I think that my son should understand and participate more active activities out side of school, play less computer games. The things I may push his practice are registering some extra exercise classes and hiring a personal trainer for him to improve his physical activity needs. He is well done with his personal healthy life choices if he could add more physical activities and play less computer games after school. I give him 20 out of 25 for his efforts in the blog. I come up with this number because he has been doing excellent during school, if he could add more extra physical activities out side of school, that would be much excellent!!
Thank you mom. And now, look at our hike up First Peak in Mt. Seymour Prov. Park from yesterday (Saturday, May 9, 2015)
