O relato de um estágio atípico num ano atípico.

Abstract

This document reports the adventure of a student-intern (the author), in a Professional Internship situation, seeking to build his professional identity. The author's professional identity came from the knowledge acquired during his academic education, from the experiences lived during the practice in the Professional Internship and through the relationships with all agents in the school community. The internship took place at the Eugénio de Andrade Elementary School, with an internship nucleus made up of two student-interns, one of them being the author, and a sign language interpreter who accompanied my fellow intern, with the supervision of a cooperating teacher and a guiding teacher from college. The internship proved to be a very enriching experience, for the knowledge acquired in previous years of academic education, but also for learning new knowledge. The possibility of putting into practice all learning and reflection on this practice resulted in enormous growth as a professional, enabling the ability to identificate problems and search for solutions, as well as the ability to teach and make students learn. It is noteworthy that this internship took place during a global pandemic scenario, which led to the teaching during this school year to go through classroom and distance education, and where there was a huge adaptation to normal education with many limitations and differences what students were used to. It was during distance learning that the author carried out a study addressing the inverted classroom in Physical Education in distance learning. Thus, this internship report seeks to reflect the enriching experiences of the professional internship and the skills that a teacher must have to exercise the profession, demonstrating the demand and difficulties that he/she goes through to acquire such skills. The difficulties and challenges of being a Physical Education teacher were striking in this path of evolution and professional and personal development of the author.
