Parent Project Midterm by Papa Garcia

DIGITAL PORTFOLIO

1) Have you read your son/daughters blog? 
Yes, i've read my daughters blog.

Was there anything that surprised you or stood out immediately?
yes, i never thought my daughter did such a good job at organizing activities and taking charge. I never thought taking p.e class is as complicated as it was before, like running around the pond,or capture the flag or even blogging.

What was your favourite part about reading his/her reflections? 
my favourite part about reading her reflections is when I saw that she was doing great at working with friends, and getting comments from her teacher. I'm pretty sure he is going in the right direction and setting a good goal for her in her life. 

What did you learn about your son/daughter that you didn't know before reading the blog? 
i didn't know she knew that much sports and that she liked lacrosse.  I thought she usually stuck to basketball and volleyball and music.

What part of your child's growth/personality has been reaffirmed for you? 
that she is beginning to be an organized person and running games, starting to make more goals, and stepping up, and improving on her beep test. She is maturing. 

What is missing in the blog that you think s/he should include for the teacher or peers?
i don't think her blog is missing a lot, she should maybe just add more about her interests that make her happy, while trying to live healthy.  she also mentioned in her reflection that she sometimes comments on peoples blogs, she should comment more.

 If you were evaluating him/her on his/her blogging efforts, what would you say? 
it is an excellent blog, she has a lot to say about her fitness program and her personal fitness. from her blog you can tell she works really hard and I agree with her teacher that she needs to rest, she needs to stop staying up late.

What would you give him/her out of 25? How did you come up with that number?
i would give her a 22 because it is a good blog and good topic, she talks about what she did wrong and how she helped. she also has pictures and videos. i think that she can improve because no one is perfect so she doesn't get a 25. 

HEALTHY LIVING:

2) What do you notice about your child's health choices outside of school? 
she frequently goes to our club house to work out or dance, she has always liked vegetables so she eats healthy a lot. 

What activity and or diet choices does s/he make on their own? 
working out, cutting down on rice, and joining her mom and her brother and sister in a healthy competition.

What exercise/eating choices are encouraged buy the family/household?
her mother likes to walk, and we recently bought 4 bikes so we can go biking, in the summer we like to go hiking. for eating i make a lot of vegetables and meat not a lot of pasta or carbohydrates.

Did you see any evidence of this in his/her blog? What is missing that should be included?  
Yes i saw pictures of her salad and also her talking about eating healthier and drinking more water. I don't think there is a lot that is missing and 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?
eat less junk food, and eat healthier foods. Sleep early and take care of her well being more often. 

 What things can you as parent do to push this learning/practice? 
proper advice on getting more rest, and making sure she goes to sleep.

If you were to evaluate your son/daughter on their progress towards personal healthy life choices what would you say? 
I'm very well satisfied, and hope she continues to get in shape and live healthier because it will help her in the near future. 

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?
23 because she talks about liking working out and to likes it at home, she also eats healthy and talks about it too. 2 points off because she can blog more and sleep earlier.
