UBD Lesson Part 2

Lesson Plan: Day 2 Shooting

Established Goals:

Standard 2.5 – Motor Skill Development: All students will utilize safe, efficient, and effective movement to develop and maintain a healthy, active lifestyle

2.5.6 A – Movement Skills
2.5.6. B – Movement Concepts
2.5.6 C – Strategy
2.5.6 D – Sportsmanship, Rules and Safety
2.5.6 E – Sport Psychology

SWBAT shoot a basketball using proper technique at a proficiency level of 70%
SWBAT explain what a foul is and what happens if a foul is committed.

Essential Questions:

  • How does working cooperatively affect your team’s success?
  • What key strategies that were previously learned can be applied to this unit? How is this significant?

Understandings:

  • Following through on your shot, keeping your feet spread apart, and taking the shot in one fluid motion are all key aspects of a successful shot
  • Shooting is how you score points, and you need points to win, but being a good shooter is not the only thing that helps a team to win

Misunderstandings

· As long as the basketball goes into the basket, it does not matter the technique used

Students will know

· Students will learn the rules of around the world and horse, both shooting games to reinforce the proper shooting technique.

Assessment Evidence:

Visual Assessment

While students are playing around the world and horse in their groups I will walk around and observe their shot. I will make corrections or suggestions where needed.

Question and Answer

When the class is over I will ask the students to explain to me the proper shooting technique. Along with their description I will ask a student to demonstrate the proper shooting technique.

Students will be asked to explain the rules of both around the world and horse.

Learning Plan:

After warm-ups, a demonstration of how to shoot a basketball, and a demonstration of the game around the world, students will be broken up into six groups and each group will have their own basket. While they are at their baskets I will walk around and observe their shooting and how they work with their groups as far as encouraging each other and helping each other out. About half way through the class the students will be stopped, have a seat at their basket, and will watch a demonstration of horse. Students will continue to work in their groups while playing horse. Again I will walk around and observe their shooting technique and how they work in groups.

Around the world rules:

All students will start at the first hash mark, closest to the basket, and try to make the shot in. If they make the shot in they move to the next spot. If they miss the shot they go to the end of the line and wait for their turn. If, though, the students make the shot from the first mark but then miss the shot from the second mark they have two choices: 1. they can stay where they are until their turn comes again, or 2. they can chance it which means if they make the shot they move to the third mark, but if they miss the shot they have to go back to the first mark. The game continues like this until one person has moved from the right side of the basket to the left, and then back to the right side.


Horse rules:

One student will pick to shoot from anywhere on their court. If they make the shot in then the second person has to make the same exact shot. If the second person misses the shot they will receive the letter H, but if they make the shot then the third person has to also make the same exact shot. If the second person misses the shot then the third person can shoot from anywhere (if the person in front of you misses the shot you can shoot from anywhere, but if they make the shot you also have to make it to not get a letter). The first person to spell H-O-R-S-E looses.

Equipment:

2 basketballs per basket (12 in total)
Poly spots to mark the spots for around the world.


Follow-up/Homework:

None

I like how you include team work into the lesson. That is an important feauture of PE and sports; unfortunately, many teachers and coaches forget that essential part of the aforementioned. I believe essential question allow the inclusion of important topics.
In order to improve the organization; try to seperate your essential questions in topical and over-arching.

I totally agree with Joe's point about how you were able to successfully focus on team work and cooperation within a lesson about shooting a basketball. This is a skill that can be transfered to so many other areas in life.

I think it might add to the lesson if you allowed the students to reflect on whether their group actually achieved the desired team work and cooperation. They could use a rubric to do this and maybe offer each other some suggestions for future improvement at the conclusion of the lesson.

Would you want to develop an essential question related specifically to basketball?

Team work is a very important life skill. Many children do not know how to work in or on a team successfully. It would be interesting to see and know what the child's point of view of what team work is.I would also like to know if the children were able to see a change in their efforts towards team work changed at all from the beginning of the lesson to the end of the lesson.
