Expanding Student Vocabulary
Students need to explore different terms.
By using these resources students will become more descriptive in their writing.
Students will use more interesting terms to catch the audience.
This was used online to find adjectives to describe the picture. If we did not know what the word meant we looked up the meaning of the word to make sure it was a good fit for the picture.

Literacy Strategies used in Physical Education
Notetaking
The purpose of this is that the students will collect and present information, then read it and take notes.
By doing this the students will have a better understanding of that activity.
Visual Literacy
This will be used by projecting images and instructions on the wall for students to refer back to when needed.
A good example when this would be used when doing different fitness activities. There will be a picture and a description on how to complete the task.
Conclusion
This class has been beneficial because it introduced me to different strategies that will help both the students and myself succeed. These strategies have made me think of different ways to connect to all of the students. Using these different strategies will help my students understand the material better. It could be a simple visual tool, a handout with the description of the activity, a read a loud, or even having the students do research on the activity. Since every student learns a different way, these strategies are effective ways to make sure they understand the material better.
