The document summarizes the blogger's experience attending their first PE and PDH tutorials for the semester. In the first tutorial, the blogger felt anxious not having been educated in Australia but found the warm-up games fun and enjoyed the teaching strategies. They particularly liked an icebreaker activity they planned to use in their own classes. The second tutorial covered the sensitive topic of sexuality. The blogger felt more informed and confident about their responsibility to educate students on physical development and sexuality after learning appropriate language and discussing the book "Where Do I Come From?".

1. BLOG 1 PE tutorial <br />On 3 August 2011, I participated in the first PE tutorial for the semester. I met Victoria Rawlings for the first time. I was eager and enthusiastic as to what kinds of activities I was going to learn. <br />I hadn’t been educated in Australia; this had left me anxious regarding expectations required.<br />As I participated in various warm up activities such as Rats and Roosters, Train Trail, Bulrush, … I found myself filled with excitement and confidence even though I hadn’t been familiar with most of these games. I enjoyed the teaching strategies demonstrated by Vic and appreciated the FUN embedded in them.<br />I, particularly, enjoyed the ‘Iceberg’ activity, which I will incorporate into my classes in the future. It is such a great approach in terms of grouping and regrouping students or even summoning the whole class. It disperses away confusions that might arise before and during PE classes.<br />BLOG 2 PDH tutorial<br />On 7 September 2011, the topic of PDH tutorial was Sexuality. I entered class with an inquiring mind as to what and how to teach Sexuality. It is certainly a sensitive subject matter.<br />I enjoyed the beginning of the lesson as we all had to get familiar with the language associated with sexuality as it is a ‘must’ in order to impart proper information to students. <br />The book “ Where do I come from” was a surprise at first. However, it provided me with insight into what and how issues related to physical development and sexuality could be addressed and taught in class across all stages. <br />I left that tutorial feeling more confident and aware of my responsibility as a teacher in educating my students about this topic.<br />
