Abstract

This document presents a Pre Service Teacher Report prepared within the scope of the Professional School Placement Curricular Unit, included in the 2nd Cycle of Studies for obtaining a Master's Degree in Physical Education Teaching in Basic and Secondary Education at the Faculty of Sport of the University of Porto. The supervised teaching practice lasts for one academic year, providing the preservice teacher the opportunity to begin their training as a Physical Education teacher, in which they apply the knowledge acquired in their initial training in a real school teaching context, with the daily supervision of a Cooperating Teacher. This Professional School Placement Report aims to recount the experiences the author had during the school placement process, presenting reflections on the evolution as a future teacher, the learning obtained, challenges overcome, and strategies that contributed to their professional development. The document is organized into four distinct major areas: personal and institutional framework, practice implementation, relationship with the school community, and professional development. In the respective areas, the importance of the experiences lived is highlighted for the educational enrichment of the pre-service teacher and their professional preparation. The document concludes with a chapter on Final Considerations. The report was elaborated metaphorically, with titles alluding to a journey through the author's childhood memories, converging the experiences of the feelings of a soccer game with the supervised teaching practice, as well as the entire teaching-learning process provided to the students.
