CAS 2017

Teaching is an important thing in this world,it allows us to pass the knowledge we posse. My friend and I decided to teach grade 7 insight on the occasion of teachers day.

The most challenging task was to maintain the class decorum,it was challenging task because it is hard the students were mischievous and I have not done anything like this before hence my friend and me overcome this challenge by making a deal with students that we will teach in the first 1.5 hours and we will play games is the remaining 0.5 hours,it was important for my friend and me to overcome this challenge because we wanted the students to listen to us and understand what we were going to teach although it is important to overcome any challenge in life because challenges drag you down but it makes u stronger if you overcome them.

While teaching I identified a strength I pose and it was communicating skills,I was able to communicate properly with the students and I was able to cater 2 or 3 doubts at the same time due to fast and good communication skills hence I used effective language to communicate while teaching which made it easy for the students to understand the topic taught by me.I feel good after knowing the strength because this strength can helpful for in future activities such as FOA.Although it very important for a person to know his/her strength or weakness because it allows you to analyse yourself and helps you to know the areas which you are good at and areas where you need to work on.

The class was interesting in the start but then after 45 minutes students were getting bored and distracted it was challenging for my friend and I because we need to teach and maintain the class decorum at the same same time although this problem were overcome by using “technology” while teaching we played some attractive and interesting videos which were related to the topic we were teaching, therefore, we were able to overcome this challenge,it was important for us to overcome this challenge because we wanted the students to understand the concept thoroughly.

When we decided to play in the remaining 0.5 hours ,we decided to play dog and the bone,while the game started some students started to fight we tried to resolve but after few minutes again they started to fight and this situation occurred much time although we stopped them due to the commitment we made to play games in the remaining 0.5 hours,commitment was required  for this activity because if we did make this commitment students would not have paid proper attention in the class although this commitment has cost us time ,energy and hard work due to the fight that took place.

At the end of this activity, I learned that teaching is a not an easy task and my respect for teachers have increased .

 

In this twenty first century world it is essential to keeping yourself updated with social media and technologies although it is also important to make yourself fit and healthy due to the increasing number of wide spread disease hence me and my friends decided to join the gym at school.

This is the first time I have decided to join the gym.The most challenging task done by me was,to wake up early in the morning it was challenging due to lack of sleep and change in timetable,this challenge was overcome by sleeping early and changing my timetable but it also requires commitment to get out of bed in the early morning although I chose to wake up early.The week days were divided into upper body,lower body,back,chest and abs,it is cycle which we followed throughout the academic year,following this cycle allowed me find out my own strengths and weakness such as after 2 cycles I identified that my abs/abdominal is the strongest region compared to my other body parts therefore I was able to do 50plus sit ups in the second cycle itself and it is an area for further growth.After realising the strength I poses it boosted my confidence level and allowed me overcome my weakness such as my tricep region,it is the weakest region of my body hence I was able to overcome that weakness by changing my diet(increased protein intake).It felt good after doing this activity as it allowed to overcome the challenges and weakness and helped me identify my strengths,it is important to identify the strength and weakness you because it tell you the areas you need to work on and vice versa.

The second most  challenging task was push-ups,it is a challenging task because it requires strength to lift up your own weight although this challenge was overcome by increasing balance and focusing more on my biceps workout on day 1 I did 5 push ups and on day 25 I did 30 push-up although I was committed to work on my weakness ,I committed to myself that I will increase the number of push up done by me although this commitment caused me to use lots of effort and hardwork to achieve my goal therefore it is not easy for me to commit things.

After 2-3 cycles I identified a new strength,the new strength identified by me was I had a strong back hence it is the second strongest area in my body,I felt good about finding out this new strength I posses hence it is an area growth in the future because my body is not fully developed yet therefore my back might become more stronger due to hormonal changes.

The third most  challenging task was pull-ups,it is a challenging task because it requires strength to lift up your own weight although this challenge was overcome by increasing balance and focusing more on my back workout on day 1 I did 10 pull ups and on day 25 I did 40 pull-ups,it is challenging because it requires you to lift your body weight and I haven’t done anything like this before hence it is important to learn new skill because these skill makes me fitter,stronger and healthier.I was able to develop this new skill because of my commitment to increase the number of pull-ups done by me,this task is difficult because it requires more energy and strength while doing this activity and I felt good after developing this strength with the help of my commitment.

I liked doing gyming because it has allowed me to stay fit,increase my BMI and helped me to develop new skills and identify my weaknesses and work on it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This year my classmates and I went on a trip to Naggar. It is a beautiful place with low temperature and have a good scenery. Naggar is located is located near Manali,it is a hilly region with adventures activity.

The first and challenging activity which we did was trekking in the mountains, it is tough to trek on the mountain because as the altitude increases the level of oxygen decreases although trekking allowed to me to identify my own strength which is trekking for long distances without getting exhausted although I need to work on making my legs more strong because after long distance trekking I had to endure some leg pain because my body was not familiar with the environment.Trekking allowed to me increase my stamina hence we trekked on hilly region which allowed me to develop proper balance while trekking.I feel good after identifying and achieving this strengths because now I know the strength I poses and this will allow me to further develop my strengths in the future.

A challenging and a creative activity done by my friend and I was “sliding down the slope in a tube”.After doing this activity I was able to identify and demonstrate the challenges undertaken by my friend and I,the first challenge we faced was “balancing the tube” it is essential for us to balance the tube because dis-balance may cause fatal injuries while sliding down the slope,the second challenge we faced was “Try to sit steal” it is important to reduce any movement on the tube while sliding down hence it may lead to injuries if we move more while sliding down.The tube consisted of a space for 2 people,my friend and I decided to do this activity to together as it was a creative and challenging activity for us because we have never tried anything like this before, we had to work collaboratively because it requires proper balance from both sides of the tube,it was a challenge for my friend and me because this activity was dangerous and could cause some serious injuries if not conducted properly.The first time we did we lost control while sliding hence the second time we did it correctly because we were able to overcome that challenges faced by working collaboratively hence this lead to the development of new skills like “having a good balance while sliding” and “to reduce any movement done by us while sitting on the tube”

Third activity which we did was skiing, skiing is challenging and difficult especially for a beginner like me,The first problem I encounter was to keep up with the speed while simultaneously balancing your own body it is a hard thing to do while skiing although fell around 4 to 5 times while I was trying to keep up with the speed while simultaneously balancing your own body but in the end, I was able to balance my body and maintain my speed due to my repeated attempts I was able to over come that challenge hence it allowed to helped me to develop new skill such as “how balance and maintain speed simultaneously”.The second problem faced by me was “gripping” it is challenging to hold the grip due to slippery surface I slipped 2 to 3 times while trying to ski although I was able to increase my gripping skills while skiing by maintaining proper balance hence this allowed me to over come the challenge and develop the new skill “gripping while skiing” .The trip helped us in trying new things and developing new skills by commitment to learn ,due the commitment I poses I did not give up and tried to overcome every challenge faced by me.
