Stress from PE

Uncategorized Add comments

      For PE, Logan had to learn about 16 muscles in the body and the types of exercises to increase endurance for these muscles, thus this was a big homework for him.  Logan did workimage

hard and tried his best to memorize all those names.  At the end, the teacher gave each student a verbal quiz and Logan did not do well.  He was very disappointing and was saddened by it.  The next week each student had to come up with a 30 minutes workout with the different exercises.  The teacher liked Logan’s routine and picked him as the leader for his small group, thus Logan had to lead a few students to do his workout.  Logan was freaked out with this assignment; we had not really seen how stressed and scared he was for days.  Logan tried to memorize and practice on his routine, and on the day before, we suggested him to rehearse it with us.  Connor suggested doing it on Zoom to give Logan more of a realistic practice.  Logan was nervous with us but he did well.  He made some last minute changes to make the routine last closer to 30 minutes.image

    Finally the PE class was due to happen after lunch on Friday before the fall break.  Logan did not really have a good appetite for lunch and he quickly returned to his room before class started to get ready.  Later we heard Logan’s voice on the other side of the door.  He was loud enough and he did a good job announcing the exercise, describing which muscle it helped, timing his group through each one minute routine, and the 15 seconds break before the next one.  According to Logan, one of his classmates appraised Logan for doing a good job leading their small group.  Logan was very happy and relieved when this class was over.  Who knows a subject like PE gave Logan the most grief so far.
