O atravessar de uma tempestade: um ano de estágio cheio de desafios e superações

Abstract

This document corresponds to the Final Internship Report produced as part of the Professional Internship curricular unit, included in the 2nd Cycle study plan leading to a Master's degree in Physical Education Teaching in Primary and Secondary Education from the Faculty of Sport of the University of Porto. The Professional Internship marks the beginning of a fundamental stage in the professional training of a Trainee Student, giving them the opportunity to come into contact with the real teaching context over the course of a school year, and to put into practice the knowledge acquired over the years of initial training. The aim of this document is to present the experiences and learning acquired through reflections throughout the year. It is divided into 7 chapters, ranging from the "Personal Framework" to the "Conclusions and Perspectives for the future", covering all the difficulties, lessons learned, challenges overcome and reflections throughout the internship, which was developed by teaching a secondary school class (12th grade) and an elementary school class (6th grade). The initial expectations are shared, as well as how the conception of the subject of Physical Education evolved throughout the process. The process has been like going through a storm, where at first the obstacles seem insurmountable, but in the end you come out more fearless and confident, overcoming difficulties and moments of uncertainty, always with the aim of learning and teaching to the best of your ability.
