Outdoor adventure is the most interesting gym class I have ever taken. We have not done any sports like basketball, volley ball, or any sport that I would usually do in P.E. Instead, we have been doing little games, getting to know each other, and having fun.
It was a bit odd in the beginning since Im used to gym with 4 quarters of 4 different sports. This isnt the typical P.E class, but its definitely not the worst. I find it rather entertaining. Every day's activity is a surprise. In my opinion, its just never been a boring day. Even if people say we just do Kindergaten games, they still smile and laugh as they do it.
Underneath the silly games this class is really all about teamwork and working together to solve each problem one step at a time.
well from what i have experienced from being in outdoor adventure class, it has been fun, alot of bonding that you may or may not like at first but as the activities go on you will enjoy it, even the fitness isnt that bad, i cant tell the activities that you will be doing but i do say that you will have a good time, so take outdoor adventure and you will set to go, btw come dressed all times always good to be prepaired for class. from : Antonio Neal
Outdoor adventure is different from any other gym class that i have taken. We do class activities instead of sports, and are encouraged to team build. Over all, outdoor adventure has been a fun gym class. Beth Shumway
Outdoor adventure is a very interesting class - pretty different from any other gym class you would normally take. There are lots of teamwork activities and games and the atmosphere is laid-back. It's one of those classes that goes by really fast, and that is something I appreciate. - Neha Thomas
So far, Outdoor Adventure has been a very interesting class. We've been doing a lot of sitting around and getting to know everyone, which is nice, but I'm excited to hopefully start doing some more physical games once we know how to work together. Like Neha, I enjoy the more relaxed attitude of the class.
Outdoor Adventure has been really interesting so far. Unlike a "generic" gym class, we haven't done any sports or a lot of exercise, just team building. It's enjoyable and I can tell it will get really fun and involved as the year goes on.
Outdoor Adventure is one of the coolest classes that I have taken at Fremd. It really helps you to learn some important life lessons in fun ways. Everyone has to get out of their comfort zone a little bit and try get involved in the activities. The activities teach us great lessons as well as help us to get to know each other better and to also have a good time. Along with the activities, we also have the fitness thrown in which is always needed.
Our class, overall, is a very cool class. There are all different kinds of people in it and that is what makes it so interesting! Everyone has something to offer to the group. Also, everyone's attitude is positive and optimistic. This group of kids has really been able to come together, form bonds, and work with a team.
I am very excited to continue on in the class for the rest of the year! :)
I really love this class so far because it's nothing like a regular gym class. We do physical activities and we then relate them to our everyday life. That's the great thing about outdoor adventure. You will really get to know your classmates, and still have fun while doing it!! Like Neha and Lia, I also really love the relaxed atmosphere of the class. I'm so excited for the rest of the class!!!! :)
Overall, Outdoor Adventure has been a fascinating gym class. It is not what you would consider a traditional gym class. We do a lot of team-building activities which are fun but frustrating at times. So far i like outdoor adventure but am eager to see what comes next. ~Kelly Cannon
outdoor adventure is deffinately different from any other gym class i've ever taken. you dont play sports like volleyball but instead we play team building games or group games. all of our activities so far have had an important life lesson built into them, which is pretty cool. you get your heart pumping for a few of them, but you always end up laughing and having a good time.
Outdoor Adventure has been really fun so far. Instead of being forced to play sports that no one really wants to play all the time, we get to do many different activities that help us get to know each other better but also help us get to know each other better. It's been really fun and I think it will end up being a good experience.
Outdoor Adventure is really fun and playful. I think it's funny and awkward when we play little kids' games and have to rub up against each other. Fitness days are not so fun because we go sweaty to the next class.
so far i liked what we did in outdoor adventure. i thought i was going to drop out of this class but i decided im not so i cant wait to see what were going to do throughout the year. From:Adrian O.
Like Aubrie said, I think outdoor adventure is the most interesting gym that I have taken. I haven't really liked PE before but outdoor adventure is lots of fun. I like the team activities that we do. Although at first, the games that Mrs. Baldassano proposes seems a little ridiculous and childish, everyone turns out to be laughing and having so much fun in the end.

Althgouh at first, the games that Mrs. Baldassano proposes seem a little ridiculous and childish, everyone ends up laughing and having fun.
I would describe this class as a lot of team building activities that we have to do everyday until we get them right. It's pushing and maybe bursting your personal bubble with people you don't know, and sometimes people that you do know. Getting way too close to others sometimes, and in your and the other persons' personal space. I'm sure it will be more fun when we actually start climbing and other stuff that's not team building.
Outdoor Adventure is a really fun gym class. We do lots of team building that breaks the ice between people. Many of the activities we do seem really ridicules but then end up being a lot of fun. I am glad that I took this class, I am also looking forward to future activities in this class.
Outdoor adventure is different than any gym class I've taken. So far, all we have done is team building to help us learn how to work with and care for each other. Even this early in the year I am really enjoying the activities and the atmosphere of the class!
Outdoor adventure is a very interesting gym class where the class participates in many activities that we have to work together in order to get them accomplished. The activities we do in class relate to overall life lessons that we talk about after we complete an activity. So far, this class has been pretty fun and I am looking forward to what we will be doing the rest of the year.
Outdoor Adventure Class is unlike any other gym class I have been in. The activities we do may seem silly, but they all have a purpose. For this class you don't have to be super athletic, but the most important quality to have to succeed is corporation skills. -Lauren Olson
This class really is different from any highschool gym class. The typical gym class has different units like softball, swimming, basketball, soccer, volleyball, etc. But this class is based on team work and fun. A lot of the activities we have done so far I had to do in my VAMP summer training, and doing them again as a class was just as fun! You don't really have to worry about looking weird because everyone around you is doing the same thing. The lessons we learn at the end of each activity makes sense and one of the activities was to open your eyes more and look around the hallway more to see what's going on, and ever since the, I have been paying more attention to what's happening around me, and it's interesting to see what goes on when you really pay attention. Now, I don't actually dread going to gym class and worry about sweating and not having fun, although I don't think it is my favorite class of the day just because it is still a gym class, I still laugh and have fun with everyone, which I havn't really done in a gym class since the 4th grade!
Well, with all the hype I heard, I never expected Outdoor Adventure to be based on team building and working together. I thought we would be going on bike rides and rock climbing everyday. I guess we'll get there later. The methods of team building are interesting, though. At the end of class, we have to connect the activity to real life. There's always the obvious answer, but then there's the answer that always makes you think. So even though I was looking forward to rock climbing and biking, the team building is also kind of necessary. We're all different and have different opinions so there's space to clash. So before we can actually go out on the upcoming field trip or have fun together, we have to learn to be able to listen to each other. So far, I think we're close to achieving that.
This class is very fun and exciting! it is also very interesting because we do different things that we didnt do the last 2 years in gym class. i thought i was gunna drop this class and move to bball gym but i guess im gunna stay and have a good time!! ohh our teachers pretty cool too! :D
Outdoor adventure is a really fun class. It is a great chance to be yourself and have fun. I enjoy playing all the games and just having a good time. This class is a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends because there are a lot of team building activities where you are forced to step out of your comfort zone.Even if you think it is a little weird you can't help but to laugh and laugh some more. Outdoor adventure is really the best gym class because you actually get more out of it than a requirement to graduate.You learn life lessons while having fun. For the first time i can actually say i look forward to P.E. class.
Outdoor adventure has been a great experience. It has shown me how to become a better leader, and how to have fun in more ways than only playing sports. You get out of your comfort zone to do some activities, but they are still entertaining. Overall, Outdoor adventure is a fun class. Jake Klein
Outdoor Adventure is for sure one of the best PE classes that i have ever taken and I'm not going to hesitate to take Outdoor 2 next year. Outdoor is probably the class you will want to take if you like to learn how to rock climb and also, if you want to learn how you can trust others. If i were to tell another person about this class then i would tell anyone that is considering the class, to take it without even thinking twice about it. Karol Piluk
Outdoor adventure is definitely a really unique class. So far, we've done a lot of team building activities and we've had a couple fitness days. Even though the activities can be really silly, awkward and frustrating, we always end up having a good time and we get know our classmates better. I really enjoy this class and I look forward to the rest of the year.
Outdoor adventure is not like any other gym class I've taken for a while. From what we've already done I can tell it's going to be fun. At first we're just doing activities that will prepare us for what is to come but the thing is they have been really fun. It's like being a little kid again doing silly things and not really caring about it because it's fun and everyone else is doing it. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the year.
For the first week of school, "awkward" would have been the word i would have used to describe outdoor adventure. I had to interact with others in ways I usually do not; for instance, we had to put our foreheads together. Just plain awkward... But the thing is that you get kinda used to these weird activities and I realized i was having a lot better time than i would in a typical gym class. And its not just better in terms of enjoying it but also in a sense that you build teamwork, communication skills, etc. that you would not be able to do in your social life. This class is not about building muscles or physical endurance nor is it about playing different sports. It's more than that. Its about group work, social skills, care and respect for each other, etc. But of all, this class is far the most enjoyable gym class of all.
Out door adventure is very different from anyother gym class I have taken. I like how we get to know each other, that way when we get into trusting activites, the class will feel more comfertable with eachother. I didnt expect that we would play so many games, but out of the all the gym classes, I definitely say this is my favorite so far. Throughout the year i hope to get into more " adventurest" games though. -kaitlyn kalbas-
outdoor adventure has, honestly, changed the way i think about gym. no longer do i dread gym as much becuase the games we play are silly and always get me to laugh. outdoor adventure is fun, i like it.
This class is definitely the most fun PE class I have ever taken. I like that we really don't spend too much time on sports and fitness but more on team building exercises. For a high school PE class, this is exactly what I want. Not some boring traditional PE where I get sweaty for the rest of the day. It's a nice break in my day from all of the academic classes and have fun with some friends and do somethings outside my comfort zone. And a bonus, I made a couple new friends. Paxton Atristain
Outdoor adventure is different from any gym class. It is a lot fun because you excise and still learn something new every time. We do a lot of team building activities, which are fun but challenging. Also, it is neat when the activities connect to our lives. It makes us think about different things. I have learned a lot so far and I cannot wait to learn more. -Kelly Breen
