Lesson number: Lesson 1 Name: Thomas Hatjidimitriu (me), Richard Helliar, Mat Vogel, Courtney Ryan Mentor: Jo Golds Duration: 40 minutes Date: 28/08/2014 School: Our Holy Redeemer Primary School, Surrey Hills Year level: Grade 1-2- Lesson draws from Level 2 AusVELS No. of students: Approximately 25 Pedagogical focus / Instructional approach: Working with early years primary students the main objective of this lesson is to develop students understanding of basic skills in physical education. As such, each activity from warm up is designed to scaffold student learning and build up their skills leading to a game situation, where they can apply what they have learnt. In subsequent lessons, adopting a games sense approach may be more applicable once students have developed basic psychomotor skills. Personal teaching goals for this lesson (Relate to SOCKS): - Provide clear and precise instructions to students regarding safety hazards and precautions, the correct use of equipment and clear expectations of self-conduct and behaviour. - Each activity should be organised in advance so that transitions happen smoothly. This includes setting up of equipment and giving clear and understandable explanations of games and rules. Furthermore, dividing students into groups should be time-effective and fair in regards to ability levels and gender. - Each activity should be inclusive and engaging for all. Students of mixed abilities should work together discrimination of any sort will not be tolerated - By the end of the lesson students should have achieved the objectives in a fun and enjoyable manner and be able to demonstrate different skills when prompted. Equipment and resources required for lesson: Newspaper balls Kanga-Cricket bats-enough for one per student 4 different sized balls 2 bases/dots (home and first base) Bucket for balls to be collected in
Student Learning Objectives: - Students should learn how to throw and strike a ball and use these skills successfully in a fielding/striking game as well as practice basic motor skills such as running and jumping - Students should be developing their spatial awareness and using this to tactical advantage in game situations - Students should show an understanding of safety hazards and precautions to take in striking/fielding games Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
- Students should be able to work as effective members of a team Domain Health and Physical Education Dimension Movement and Physical Activity Standard Students explore different aspects of the body and begin to understand how these actions affect movement efficiency. They practise basic motor skills such as running, hopping, jumping and skipping, and more complex skills such as throwing and striking balls. Students participate in and develop control over a range of locomotor activities that require a change of speed (such as fast and slow movements) and direction (such as up/down, forward/backward
Indicators of student learning Students can successfully perform running, hopping, jumping, skipping, throwing and striking balls, etc. when prompted and apply them in game/activity situations. Achieved? Yes Health and Physical Education Movement and Physical Activity
Students discuss the need for safety rules for equipment use, and practise appropriate safety skills and procedures.
Students demonstrate understanding of different safety risks and precautions in physical activity and apply them during activities. Yes

Student Learning Outcomes: Complete the learning outcomes below and relate them to the VELS statement above.
Psychomotor (Physical) Affective (Social/Emotional) Cognitive (Mental) Students begin to combine motor skills into movement sequences, and create simple movement sequences in response to a variety of stimuli. Students advance from creating and playing games on their own or with a partner to playing in small and large groups. Students develop a sense of spatial awareness and use this individually and in a team environment to tactical advantage during a game situation.
Pre-requisite skills required What basic skills or knowledge should students bring with them to this lesson? Students should be perform basic motor skills such as running, hopping, jumping and skipping, and be developing competency in more complex skills such as throwing and striking balls. Students should be able to listen and follow instructions effectively, and be working towards functioning as effective members of a team.

class/ introduce self and teaching team and brief student introductions names.
10-15 minutes Warm Up activity: Static warm up exercises predominantly stretching hands, arms and legs for running and throwing activities.
Students will be organised around a stretch circle using the jump-circle of the basketball court. Teacher will also be standing in this position delivering instruction.
- Not to interfere with others stretching, Not to stretch hard or long enough to cause injury
- Play a few rounds of Handshake Tiggy as a whole group. Students will be given boundaries of game (i.e. half court and base line and side lines of basketball court) and explained the game: Two taggers try tag the rest of the students, when tagged students must stand still and wait for someone to come and do the pre- determined handshake to allow them back into the game. Handshake will be demonstrated at Students will be asked to spread out throughout the area of one half of the basketball court - Students must consider awareness of other people whilst moving on the court
Tagging each other softly What are these students doing so that they dont get tagged? Lurking near boundaries, spatial awareness, dodging/faking What tactics are the taggers using in tagging people? Cornering, teamwork, etc. Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
beginning of game. Taggers will be changed every round. Make handshake interesting by using words such as hot potato and pow for students to remember. Modifications: - Rather than running students must jump, hop, gallop or skip in the game, - Other variations may include changes in speed (such as fast and slow movements) or various directions of movement (such as walking backward) - handshake can be altered -boundaries may be altered Clumps - Using the same boundaries from previous activity, students listen to teacher instruction (i.e. hop, skip, swim, chicken wings,) of motion around area. When whistle blows they must Same as previous activity, game will be played within boundaries of the basketball half court - Students must consider awareness of other people whilst moving on the court Who are the people who are last to form a clump? Listening skills Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
form clumps as directed by teacher (I.e. form groups of 3, find 2 people with the same colour hair as you, etc.) Modifications: - Rather than running, students must jump, hop, gallop or skip in the game, - Other variations may include changes in speed (such as fast and slow movements) or various directions of movement (such as walking backward) After a few rounds of this, have students form two clumps (i.e. 2 groups of ten) which will form teams for following activity making transition easier. 5-10 minutes Main body of lesson: Minefield - 2 teams. One team on each side of boundary (half court line). Players pick up newspaper balls from their side and throw it over to the other side. Aim of game is to get rid Students will be already organised into two separate teams from previous clumps activity Each team will be on their side of the basketball half- court line within the court boundaries Newspaper balls No diving for balls Aware of people around each other No targeting others with newspaper balls Proper technique of Where can we throw the ball to make it harder for the other team? Throw into space away from opposition Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
of newspaper balls from teams space and get into oppositions space. The side with the most newspaper balls at the end of the round loses. Student can only throw on ball at a time.
Modifications: - Boundaries can be redefined, - Students can only throw underarm/overarm - Students must hop or skip while playing Give demonstration of how to throw overarm/underarm- stand side own pointing at target and twisting hips.
overarm/underar m throws
players Where might be the best place to stand on your side of the court? Closest to where the newspaper balls are landing- spatial awareness
15-20 minutes Hit 4 and Go - 2 teams. One team fields and the other team takes it in turns to hit 4 balls off short tees. Once all 4 are hit, the batter runs to a base (dot mat) and back to home base for Students will remain in same teams from previous activity Fielders will be spread out throughout the playing field while batters are lined up waiting for their turn to bat Boundaries will be established Kanga-Cricket bat 4 different sized balls 2 bases (home and first base) Bucket for Once batter has hit all 4 balls, they must drop the bat before they run, not throw it, Fielders must be aware of movement of balls Where can batters hit the ball to make it harder for the other team to field? Hit into space away from opposition Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
one run. Fielders gather the 4 balls and place them in a bucket as fast as they can to stop the other team from scoring runs. Once all balls have been collected they must stop and batter counts runs made. Things to Remember: Balls cannot be hit behind batsman. Teacher must use terminology such as batter-up and foul- ball when asking for next batter to have a go and when ball is hit backward. at beginning of game, again using half court boundaries of basketball court Refer to picture below balls to be collected in
so to not get hit players How might fielders work together to keep the other team from scoring runs? Spread out throughout field, anticipate where ball might get hit, pass to team- mates to get balls in bucket 5 minutes Cool down activity - students stand closely side-by- side around stretch circle with one bat each with their feet apart touching each others feet. A ball is placed in the middle of the circle and students must aim to strike the ball away from their legs (goal). If the ball goes through their legs they put their feet together - Students are brought back to the stretch circle to await instruction 1 bat per student Soft ball
Students must be aware of people next to them and not swing their bat; all bats must be swung in an underarm motion. How might you score a goal? Try catch others by surprise How could you defend from people scoring between your legs? Be aware of the ball, monitor where Thomas Hatjidimitriu 900178777
but can still take part in the game. The last person to concede a goal is the winner. If there are not enough bats some students can use their hands to strike.
it going Closure - Students are asked to return all equipment and pack up then come back to the stretch circle. Keep students in stretch circle and reiterate skills developed throughout game. Ask students about different tactics used in different games, what worked well and what didnt, different safety measures taken, etc.
- Students stay in stretch circle -
- - What was something important you learnt today? - What is something you did in more than one game to win?
