Adaptar: O estilo de vida de um professor

Abstract

This report presents all the experiences, difficulties and challenges I overcame during the 2023/2024 school year in order to obtain a Master's degree in Teaching Physical Education in Primary and Secondary Education from the Faculty of Sport at the University of Porto. My supervised School Placement took place at Rio Tinto Secondary School and Baguim do Monte Primary School. Throughout this period, I was able to count on the support of three colleagues belonging to the internship nucleus, the cooperating teacher and the supervising teacher at the faculty. This document reflects my experience as a Pre-service Physical Education teacher, in which I have covered the most important aspects that have helped me to create my professional identity. Based on all the knowledge and experience I've gained over the last two years, I've been able to shape my intervention in such a way as to achieve success. The report is structured in ten different parts: introduction, initial expectations, objectives for the internship, characterization of the school, characterization of the classes and core, methodology applied in the context, the importance of adaptation, differences and similarities between teacher and coach, projects and events developed and scientific study carried out on the analysis and description of the teacher trainee's feedback. This testimony tells us how important this last year was for me to be able to work as a teacher.
