Safety Considerations: The grass can have some

holes that might be harmful to the students ankles.
The blacktop is hard and when students fall they can
potentially hurt themselves. Although the grass and
blacktop area is spacious students can run in to
themselves when not looking at all times.
Lesson Specifics
Behavioral Contingencies: When students misbehave Previously Learned Skills: Students should be able to
they will receive a warning, I will talk to them and
have handled a birdie stick before. Have some level
explain to them why its important to listen, if the
of hand eye coordination, accuracy, and power.
misbehavior continues I will ask them to sit out for
that activity or for a certain period of time until the
teacher feels like it is appropriate for them to return.
IF the behavior is really bad I will send them to Ms.
Monique.
Teaching Strategy: direct and cooperative teaching,
Academic Language: Birdie, hand eye coordination,

Instant Activity:
Hello class hope all is well. Is everyone
full of energy or what?! Before we get
started we are going to play a quick game
to get the blood pumping. Real quick we
are going to play shark and minos. Before
we start I want to go over some rules
really quick. One, we do not push or hit
other classmates, is that understood?
Okay good, and secondly we must be
honest about being tagged because that
will make the flow of the game much
better. With that being said I need two
brave volunteers to get started being
sharks. Thank you. Lets begin, line up.

(show birdie) are called birdies, and this

is the racket. We are going to practice
how to pass the birdie with your partner,
but in order to do that we have to pay
attention to the COTS of the skills and
we also have to be careful that we dont
hit each other okay. With that being said
find a partner and wait for me to give you
a racket. DO NOT HIT each other with
the racket nor throw the racket
understood? After, I will pass again with
the birdie, but first I will demonstrate
how to pass. You pinch the birdie with
non dominant hand, non dominant foot
forward, swing with racket, release birdie
and make contact. Okay now you
practice with your partner. Ready set go!

CLOSURE:
Okay class bring it in! Can someone with
a quiet hand tell me whats the name of
the thing we were using to pass? Thats
right a birdie. Can someone else tell me
what did we work on today, Blank and
Blank Coordination. Hand and Eye thats
correct! The reason we worked on this is
not only to keep you more active and
help improve health but also to work on
that eye to hand and hand to eye
coordination to make you a better
individual.
