AD Meeting: October 6th
State Standards Covered: 1-5
Standard 1: Students will develop competency in many movement forms and proficiency in a few movement forms.
Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Warm ups and Attendance: Check Board
Lesson Focus: Football/Soccer
NO WARM UP –
1. Finish up testing. Some classes maybe behind in Jump rope scores, soccer skill tests or timed run.
2. Last week of Football and Soccer games
3. Take home written test for all grades.
Indoor soccer games (some classes may have pilo ball)
4. Indoor football games - Lesson Setup
Performance Goals
Students will use their personal skills to an advantage on their teams, play by the rules and regulations for touch football games, and play up to six rounds of a football tournament.
Cognitive Goals
Development throughout the tournament will focus on one of the following groups each day:
The quarterback:
• Practicing throwing to the open player
• Using short passes to retain possession
• Exercising all options so not too predictable
• Learning it is better to run than to throw and be intercepted
The defense:
• Practicing pressuring the quarterback ( 5 count )
• Not letting people get behind them
• Calling to the team when the ball is thrown so it can refocus defense
• Using zones or a “safety” when playing person to person
The receiver:
• Practicing keeping an eye on the ball
• Breaking to the outside
• Making cuts and faking to lose opponents
• Running behind teammates so they block or screen
The offense:
• Making a plan that includes everyone, even if not a ball carrier
Lesson Safety
Monitor for unnecessary roughness and emotionally stressful behavior, and correct it.
Motivation
The teams that do well are the ones that utilize everyone on the team. Tell the students that those who depend on the biggest and fastest player on their team will learn quickly that their star player can easily be shut down by alert opposition. Smart teams make sure everyone contributes to the team.
Mention that this is for fun. Tell the class to go out there and see if their wits and skills can keep them in the game. Offer your help if they need it.
Lesson Sequence
1. Develop 5-6 teams and give schedule. It should include the following:
• The round of the tournament
• The team identity numbers and whom they will play (1 plays 4, etc.)
• The color of the teams and jerseys to be picked up
• Which field the game will be played on
2. After the players stretch, make announcements that introduce ideas for strategy, focusing on a new strategy every day (attendance should be taken during the game):
• Students go to the field of play.
• They choose to receive or choose which side of the field they will play on for the period.
• They begin their tournament games.
3. During the course of the class, while officiating and coaching games, focus on the strategy brought to everyone’s attention during the announcements.
Review
How did the class think the day’s strategy got played out?
Which team successfully incorporated the day’s strategy?
How could they make the strategy work better?
How did the strategy break down? Have them give examples.
Answer questions and collect scores.
Assessment
The unit should conclude with a quiz that questions knowledge of rules, fundamental strategies, and fundamentals of movement. Since the unit is short, it is probably best to select questions from all the activities done in the fall before testing. A short quiz appears on page 440.
Skills grading can be done in a number of ways:
Announce minimal standards and award points for
• proper positioning on defense,
• moving to the open field,
• cutting to lose opponent,
• blocking for teammates or making a catch of a ball thrown accurately, and
• responding to the team game plan

Equipment
Scrimmage vests of a different color for every group of six
One ball for every two students
Performance Goal
Students will legally learn to advance a ball in team handball.

Warm-Up
Students will:
1. Complete push-ups and sit-ups
2. Perform jumps on board
3. Jog while hand dribbling and hand or body passing balls to partners
DISCUSSION
Introduce team handball to your students and tell them it has a big following outside of this country. Here, it is just a trick of adjustment. Let them know they already have learned the skills necessary to play this game, so instead of focusing on skills development, you will just point the way, tell them how things differ a little, and let them adapt on their own with the help of their teammates.
Team handball uses a lot of soccer skills, as long as a player can move the ball without using her feet or shins. For the soccer players in the class, that little difference may drive them crazy. Talk about the allowed skills, inform them that they know the soccer skills they can use, and then it’s time to get into a game.
Lesson Sequence
1. Review the allowed skills by calling them out and having partners practice them:
• The hand dribble
• The overhand pass
• The wrist pass
• Throw and catch
• Volley and catch
• Three steps and get rid of the ball
• Head, knee, and shoulder volleys
2. Stop the class to go over boundaries, pointing out the goalie area and applicable rules.
3.Divide the class into teams of six and have them play a game.
Review
Ask students if they like the game.
Discuss how many of them got mixed up.
Ask what was the most difficult skills transition for them to make.
4. Game rules
a. Make 3-5 teams (red – blue and shirts).
b. One team is always out.
c. Every 60 seconds rotate teams – the best team stays – or make up any reason to rotate a certain team off the court.
d. A goal is scored by throwing the ball into the red mat. IT MUST BOUNCE BEFORE IT HITS THE RED MAT.
e. Any ball that is tipped by a goalie or defender is no goal.
f. Any pass that is tipped by a defender is the a turnover to the other team.
g. No out of bounce.
h. If any pass to your teammate is dropped (or tipped)it becomes the opponent’s possession.
i. A defender may not steal or take the ball from an opponent.
j. There must always be two goalies for each team.
k. Every time a team rotates on or off the floor – two new goalies must become a goalie.
l. Any player who steps into the goal area is eliminated from the game until they complete 5 pushups.
m. After one shot at the goal the possession automatically goes to the other team.

Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Lesson Focus: Fitness and Basketball
Performance Goal
Students will review skills for lay-up shooting, the pivot turn, and the dribble.
Cognitive Goals
Students will:
review the rules of the dribble, and learn the purpose of the dribble.
Lesson Safety
During the lay-up drill, have only one ball at each basket at a time.
Basketball generally takes place in a crowded court space. This lesson should train students to be aware of where they are going. Be especially cautious to keep encouraging that dribblers look where they are going as you create the dribble maze. Once the dribble to lay-up shot drill is used, limit basketballs to the number of baskets and have groups line up equally behind each ball.
Warm-Up
Students will
1. Perform Warm up listed on white board
2. Run to a two-step stop and shoot at every basket in the gym
3. Have all students shoot layups – right side and left side
4. Practice mimetic for a lay-up shot with ball: arm and step-hop footwork – Advanced players may use ball and weak hand more often
5. Pair themselves up into groups of 4 to 5.
6. Play a Gotcha game: 2 balls per group – shot from any spot on floor inside of 15 feet away. If the second shooter makes shot before first shooter the first shooter has been knocked out of game until everyone is eliminated. Play 3-4 games.
7. If time allows in class – take every class through the Lesson sequence.
Motivation
The main reason some people grow to hate playing basketball is that they get hurt. Sometimes the hurt is not always physical⎯it could be the “know-it-all” teammate who hogs the ball and makes a person feel like she cannot make a contribution. Anyone who thinks she cannot make a contribution to her team has not taken the time to understand the game and learn the fundamentals. In this lesson, students should learn that everyone is capable of getting the ball in the basket. Start with the lay-up shot and discuss where players have to place the ball.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach and demonstrate the desired target for the lay-up shot:
• Have students take two or three shots each.
• Demonstrate the effect of spin.
• Ask students how many baskets they can sink in 10 seconds. Let each person at each basket have a 10-second trial.
• Have the most successful shooter demonstrate his successful technique to the class.
• Try again, giving everyone a few more 10-second turns.
2. Review the essentials of the dribble:
• Set up a dribble drill, creating new reminders as they go. Tell players to meet the ball at their waist, push the ball out in front of them, use their weaker hands, and look where they are going.
• As you improve their attention, add obstacles until you have the full-blown dribble maze drill:
Have half the class moving in the opposite direction.
Stop the class and ask the extra-good dribblers to begin their dribbling from the side, so they are moving perpendicularly to the main lines.
• Set up a drill that uses the dribble for one of its purposes⎯for example, have students dribble one lap around the gym, shooting a lay-up shot when they get to a basket.
3. Teach a shooting game of “GO” to class.
Review
Ask students, if they want a ball to drop in the basket, whether they should heave it or let it roll off their fingers.
Review why it is important to be able to dribble without looking at the ball.
Ask players whether they and their teams can score when they are dribbling the ball.
Discuss the purpose of the dribble.
Assessment
Observe each group’s ball control, making sure it is ready to move on to the next aspect of the lesson or even the next lesson. There is no rush; do not move on until 90 percent of the class look like they are making good progress.

Next Teacher’s Meeting:
State Standards Covered: 1-5
Standard 1: Students will develop competency in many movement forms and proficiency in a few movement forms.
Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Performance Goals
1 Students will review how to shoot correctly, and
2. learn how to shoot foul shots.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn what causes fouls and why foul shots are awarded
2. the significance of a basketball key:
• Where most points get scored
• Timing their entrance into the key for rebounding offensive shots
• The three-second rule
Warm-Up
Students will:
1. Complete Warm up and drills
2. Practice pass-and-go drill and dribble drills
3. Practice a lay-up shot and jump stops into short jump shots
4. Read Basketball history to class and have them write a response
Motivation
If everyone realized a missed shot might still result in their team scoring, would they consider scoring more often? It is true⎯but how? Rebounding is an art. On offense, it gives one’s team a second or third or fourth chance to score, and on defense it prevents extra scoring chances. Of course, it is easiest for the tallest players, but good timing, good court position, jumping ability, and grabbing the ball securely are equally important. While not everyone will be the designated rebounder, there are many occasions for everyone to rebound. Discuss how to do it and how to have the sensibility to be assured of when it is a good time to take that outside shot.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach and demonstrate shooting, lay ups and jump stops into layups
2. Bring the group to the basketball key:
• Teach them the three-second rule.
• Go over the drill for practicing shots close to basket or grooving their shot.
• Have every student take three foul shots while the others rebound and lay up.
3. Line up the group somewhere else in the gym, have them dribble to the point – jump stop and pass to wing and cut for a score or play 3 on 0 Pass – cut and go somewhere – space.
4. Play 3 on 3 or 2 on 2 Pass and cut.
5. Teach a shooting game: Gotcha, 4 up, Bowling, Make 10 don’t miss 2 in a row, 2 balls and 3 shooters
Review
Ask students if they scored more points on the outside shot or on the follow-up layup.
Discuss whether it is better to take an inside shot or an outside one during a game, and why.
Review what a player should wait for if he is going to take an outside shot.
Basketball Session 2
Lesson Setup
Equipment
Scrimmage vests for half the students
Whistles for student officials
Performance Goal
Students will play half-court basketball games using the “bringing back the ball” rules.
Cognitive Goal
Students will review half-court basketball “bringing it back” rules and general strategies.
Warm-Up
Students will:
1. Complete warm up on board
2. Practice lay ups
3. Dribble and jog or
4. Dribble 2 balls or dribble and juggle
Motivation
Ask the students if the basketball games on television are full-court or half-court. Discuss how they could duplicate the full-court experience if they only had two baskets but wanted two games to go on. Go over the rules for half-court, the way players can open the court, and how the three-second rule discussed in the previous lesson would apply to a half-court game.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach 5 on 0 open post movement – as soon as class gets a clue allow the ½ court games to start.
2. Bring the group to a half-court basketball area and discuss boundary lines, and half-court rules and the reason for them.
3. Go from court to court, officiating the three-second and “bringing it back” rules.
Review
Comment on how the students have played well and mention anything that they should pay attention to.
Tell them that in the next lesson they will learn who their tournament team players are. You will be dividing the class up so that each team has a natural at dribbling, someone who has rebounding advantages, and someone who is a good shooter.
Teacher Homework
Make up teams that are as equal as possible.

11-2: Thursday: Encore Meeting
11-3: Friday: Commons duty – 7:45-8:10am Conferences Next Week Early dismissal on Monday and Thursday
BEST – Dearly Beloved Article
Next Teacher’s Meeting: November 13th
State Standards Covered: 1-5
Standard 1: Students will develop competency in many movement forms and proficiency in a few movement forms.
Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Performance Goals
Students will:
1. shoot from outside the key, and
2. improve their lay-up shots
3. improve ball handling vision
4. learn how to move without the basketball
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn to keep it up, straight and follow through while shooting outside shots.
2. Students will learn to have better vision on the court when they dribble the basketball.
Warm-Up
Students will:
1. Dribble Laps
2. Finish jumps and push ups on board
3. Practice shooting
Motivation
If everyone on defense knew that a player would only shoot from the easiest location, what would they do? They would keep all their defense inside the key. How to keep the offense moving? Make them open up by learning to guard people outside the key. Why would they do that? Because people outside the key are scoring. Players need to learn how to score from farther away. Spend some time teaching students how to find their special place on the court, a place where they reach the basket easily and have enough control to score.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach and demonstrate the outside shot. Up – straight and follow through.
2. Allow every ball you have to be used for practicing the outside shot the way basketball teams do, with some people under the basket returning the balls to shooters⎯no waiting turns, just getting the ball and shooting. Do not go ahead until everyone has taken at least 20 shots.
3. Have students make up the number of groups equal to the number of baskets: Groups of 4-6
• Line them up on the opposite side of the gym from the basket they use.
• Repeat dribbling and shooting drills they have learned to date.
4. Stop the class and reinstruct them to dribble to the position where they take their outside shots and then shoot:
• Allow several trials, dribbling and shooting automatically once in position.
• Vary it by having them follow up a miss with a layup.
• Shooting spots include – elbows, blocks, and corners
5. Tell, show and demonstrate open post offensive movement.
Review
Ask how many people scored one basket for their teams, and two, and three.
Discuss how many points each shot is.
Ask students if it helped to move to get open and what still made it difficult to score.
Second Session
Lesson Sequence
1. Lay up Skill Test
2. 7-8 graders must Reading handout.
3. After warm up use groups to dribble and juggle. Shoot short jump shots or shoot jump shots off of dribble
4. Shooting games

Dearly Beloved
Arthur lived in the northeast part of the state in a small town, where hunting was both a recreation and a religion for the majority of men. Arthur's father, however, didn't hunt for deer, elk, rabbits, squirrels, or ducks as the men did in their town. He taught Arthur, who was an only child, not to kill animals, more by example than by preaching to him, that it was wrong to kill God's creatures for sport. "I don't think it's right to kill squirrels and birds for fun," Arthur said matter-of-factly one day in class when the teacher announced that school would be out the first week of deer season. "It’s cruel. "There were some jeers and catcalls from both the boys and girls. Many of the girls went hunting and were considered" good shots." For most of the boys, it was considered manly to hunt -in fact, many of them saw more of their fathers in hunting season than at any other time. It was part of the process of growing up to be a man.
Arthur didn't give an inch, and his teacher, Mr. Naylor, was obliged to open up the matter for discussion. Mr. Naylor himself was one of the most avid hunters on the faculty, but he was also a good teacher and appreciated the fact that many people, including animal rights activists, were strongly opposed to hunting. "Does anyone have a good argument in favor of hunting?" he asked. "If we didn't have a hunting season," Gerald declared, "the deer would multiply so fast that a lot of things would suffer. They eat saplings and new growth, you know. Be-O" sides, if there are too many deer out there, a lot of them will starve to death. We have to control their numbers." A rumble of approval reverberated through the classroom. "Nature has a way of balancing things out," Arthur countered. "What do you suppose happens in nature when there are no people around? There aren't people everywhere, you know! Why do people think they have the right to control nature and animals?" The debate didn't end with that day's discussion. Arthur was harassed by his class.. mates before and after the week's vacation, which was officially for the teachers to have meetings but was unofficially a holiday for hunters. By Thanksgiving it got so bad that Arthur had no one to talk with at school except jimmy, who was a newcomer from the urban western part of the state. "Maybe you should give up the argument, Arthur," Jimmy suggested. "The kids would probably like you better if you didn't tell them that hunting is cruel and stupid." "I know," Arthur said. "But I'm not going to change my mind just so those kids will like me a little better. I like them all right, but I don't approve of their attitude about killing animals." Arthur's mother was worried because he came home in a despondent half-angry way on most school days. "What are we going to do about Arthur, Phil? He's miserable at school, and he has no one to play with on the weekends." What will happen next? Finish the story.

Oh no! It’s Christmas Eve and Santa is in trouble! The fog is thick; his sleigh has run into a bump on the roof and taken a tumble! The sleigh is a wreck, the reindeer are loose and the packages are all over the place. He needs your help!
Your mission, is to get Santa back on schedule. If you can, he will reward you with your heart’s desire for several holidays to come. So, get your hat and mittens and let’s get busy. Here is what you need to do:
Fix the sleigh: You need two colored scooters, one red mat, a plastic garbage bag.
Round up the reindeer: one scooter and jump rope per reindeer. Ropes must attach to the scooter! Reindeer “hooves” may touch the “snow”, of course, but reindeer cannot help pick things up!
Gather the gifts: Elves must SIT on the sleigh to gather the gifts. DO NOT touch the ground! The snow is not real. We have no idea what it is made of, but word has it that if you touch it, your sleigh will fall apart and you will have to start over!
Pack the gifts: Get the gifts back to the rooftop so Santa can get them under the tree! Merry Christmas!

Train students to keep their eyes on the imaginary ball as it touches the forearm
Keep their legs bent
Move their forearms in the direction they want the ball to go (forward and up)
• Add getting to the “imaginary” ball, preparing for the hit, the contact, and follow-through
Motivation:
Volleyball was developed in the United States and has become so popular that it is difficult to go to any resort, beachside community, or park without seeing nets set up and people playing. The game in its original form is played with six players. Six-on-six is the way it is played in the Olympics, in class, and in interscholastic activities.
Ask students if any of them have seen beach volleyball on TV or at the beach. If two people are opposite each other at a beach volleyball net, their only chance to get to each other’s pass may be when they are able to hit the ball up in the air. In today’s class, students will learn to do that: the bump pass.
Lesson Sequence:
1. Teach and demonstrate the bump pass
2. Teach the following rules:
• An open hand below the waist is illegal.
• A ball that hits fixtures on the ceiling or the walls is out of bounds.
3. Set up progressive drills for the bump pass, providing as much repetition as possible:
• A student takes a ball and practices bumping (blocking off the forearm) to himself.
• He bumps to the wall, bumping back what the wall returns.
• He receives a toss from somebody and bumps the ball back to the passer in the direction of the wall
• A group circle is made, which tries to keep the ball alive by bumping it toward the middle.
4. Create some kind of contest to keep the enthusiasm high as students master the skill. Try the following questions:
• Who can keep the ball up 5 times, 10 times, or more before allowing it to get out of control?
• Which circle can keep it up, legally, the most times before it hits the floor?
• Can anyone beat the best team of the class, which got [however many] bumps?
Review: Ask students why they should use a bump pass for balls coming below their waists.
If they cannot control the height of the ball, review what rule might be broken.
If the ball is not going up and it’s going straight ahead, discuss what adjustments should be made.
Session 2: Volleyball
Performance Goals
1. 6th grade students will learn an underhand serve. 7th grade students will get a choice of underhand or overhand serves and 8th grade students will learn the overhead serve.
2. All students will improve their bump passes and overhead sets or passes.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn the strategy for sending an offensive serve onto the court.
2. Students will learn the value of accurate skills.
Warm-Up
Students will:
1. Practice mimetics for the bump pass, setup pass, and overhead serve⎯with steps, after they complete the jumps, push ups and situps on the white board.
2. Complete a wall volley in attendance lines
Motivation
Ask students if they watch highly competitive volleyball games. Now that they’re older, they want to put the ball in play so that it is even more difficult for their opponents to return it. This lesson is about the overhead serve, or, in other words, the foundation for a spike. The overhead serve is the same motion with the feet on the ground. This serve is more difficult than the others because the ball is tossed. Hitting with two things moving⎯the arm and the ball⎯is more difficult than hitting with one thing moving.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach and demonstrate the overhead serve, to 7th and 8th grade students. 6th grade will concentrate on underhand serves only
2. Using every ball, with students on each side of court, have them practice the overhead serve
• Interrupt the class to remind everyone of the boundary lines.
• Interrupt to remind them of foot faults.
3. Have students get in teams and practice a circle volley on a half-court:
• Ask them to tell you when they have kept the ball up 10 times.
• Then they should go for 15 times⎯and they’re ready for a game.
4. Have students play practice games, and encourage the following:
• The use of the overhead serve
• A high bump pass to the center of the court
• Using a second pass⎯a set
Review
Review the motion and point of contact of the ball for the overhead and underhand serve.
Assessment: To be completed throughout the Volleyball unit

State Standards Covered: 1-5
Standard 1: Students will develop competency in many movement forms and proficiency in a few movement forms.
Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Lesson Focus: Volleyball
Performance Goals
1. Students will learn how to spike.
2. Students will improve their set, improve their underhand or overhand serves and play a game.
Cognitive goals
1. Students will learn how angles affect spiking success
2. Students will learn the rules around the net.
a. No touching the net
b. No centerline violation
c. Simultaneous tap/block
Warm-Up
1. Students will complete and finish warm up on white board.
2. Students will practice their serve, bump pass, set, serve and steps with a spike or tip over.
Motivation
Tell students that they have been working up to learning to spike for a long time now, and today is the day. If a player is small, her margin of error shrinks. Unless he times hir jump just right and is behind the ball on the jump, he will not hit a successful spike. Tall players have a greater margin of error. For short players, poor timing or positioning can turn a spike into an offensive volley or a wild shot. Everyone should try anyway and then learn who will be the great spikers of the group.
Lesson Sequence
Start lesson with reading to class a
1. Teach and demonstrate the spike
2. Set up the smallest groups possible to guarantee the most repetition possible:
• The player tosses, the spiker spikes, the retriever retrieves under the net.
• Students rotate after two tries.
• This practice continues until the lines have gone three or four times.
3. After everyone gets a turn to be successful in their spiking efforts (this could be an offensive volley for shorter students), do the following:
• Gather them together and go over the rules involved:
No touching the net
No centerline violation
• Have them try to spike again, avoiding infractions of the rules.
4. Have students practice tapping in their circles⎯the circle volle
5. Instruct them to play practice games, continuing to encourage
• the use of the overhead serve;
• a high bump pass to the center of the court;
• using a second pass⎯a set; and
• a third tap, either an offensive volley or a spike.
Review
Ask the class if anyone was able to spike during a game.
Ask students if they got a set from their teammate or if it was a friendly mistake of their opponent that got the ball up there for a spike.
Assessment
Observe students, noting each one’s strengths and weaknesses.
Use weaknesses for planning the next lesson.
Use strengths to help plan how to divide the class into teams.
Second Session
Performance Goals
1. Students will practice setting to a target
2. Students will practice spiking.
3. Students will practice serving
4. Students will play a game of volleyball

2. Students will learn that a team should try to set to its spikers during a game
3. students will learn that getting off their feet and meeting a ball above the net is a good offensive strategy even if a hard spike is not the result.
4. Students will learn rally scoring.
Warm-Up
1. Students will finish or complete warm up on board.
2. Students will practice the bump pass, set and serve.
3. Students will practice a spike or tap vs. a teammate attempting to block the spike or tap
• Doing the arm motions for the spike⎯practicing it five times
• Taking a step to a spot on the ground, jumping, and, at the height of the jump, using the spiking more
• Repeating several times until movement and motion are small
• Checking the spot where they landed⎯is it the same one they took off from?
Motivation
In this lesson, students will take part of the time to practice using the set so that the spikers on the team can move to the ball, jump, and spike. Tell the students it would be a shame if, once the game starts, their own team is unable to set to its spikers. Announce that you are going to present the tournament teams in the next class.
Lesson Sequence
1. Teach the point of aim for the setter.
2. Set up the smallest groups possible to guarantee the most repetition possible:
• A player tosses to himself and sets to the spiker, with the retriever on the other side.
• They rotate after two tries.
• This practice continues until the lines have gone three or four times.
3. Have students play practice games, continuing to encourage
• the use of the overhead or underhand serve;
• a high bump pass to the center of the court;
• using a second pass⎯a set; and
• a third tap, either an offensive volley or a spike.
Review
Ask students how many sets were convertible to a spike in the class.
Ask if that number was more than in the last class.

Lesson Focus: Fitness Games and Target Heart Rate
Target Heart sheet will be handed out and explained during warm ups of Week #29. Target Heart Rate sheet is TO BE TURNED IN TO MR. DECKERT BY THE FIRST SESSION OF WEEK #30.
Target Heart Rate
Name:
Class #:
To calculate your target heart rate range, you need to know your AGE, RESTING HEART RATE (RTR), and your MAXIMUM HEART RANGE (MHR).
To calculate your RHR, take your pulse for 6 seconds after resting quietly. Multiply the number of beats by 10. Write your RHR on the lines provided.
To calculate your MHR, subtract your age from 220. Write your MHR on the line provided.
RHR =
MHR = 220 - =
(Your age)
Now, use the your numbers to complete the following equation:
A. - X 60% or (.60) = + =
MHR RHR RHR
B. - X 85% or (.85) = + =
MHR RHR RHR
The above two numbers are your Target Heart Range. When you exercise, your heart rate should fall into that range. If it is below the range, you are not working hard enough to gain cardiovascular endurance. If it is above the range, your are working too hard and you need to ease the intensity of your workout.
Performance Goals:
1. Students will take a resting pulse at the end of Target Heart Rate discussion.
2. Students will do a 20 minute uninterrupted exercise that they will have done before
A. 3 minute warm up
B. Moderate activity for 3 minutes

Cognitive Goals:
1. Students will discuss the validity of fitness and its value to a good and healthy life.
2. Students will examine their current fitness level and be reminded the difference between a resting pulse and a working pulse.
Warm up:
1. Warm up will be a discussion and work sheet on Target Heart Range.
2. A 20 minute workout will follow the target heart range worksheet
Lesson Sequence:
1. When students enter gym, have them sit adn come to a resting pulse during the review discussion.

The FITNESSGRAM Assessment
FITNESSGRAM is a health related physical fitness assessment. Each of the test items was selected to assess important aspects of a student's health related fitness, not skill or agility. Students are compared not to each other, but to health fitness standards, carefully established for each age and gender, that indicate good health. More information on the standards is available in the Reference Guide. Once the assessment has been done, the FITNESSGRAM report provides objective, personalized feedback and positive reinforcement which are vital to changing behavior and serve as a communications link between teachers and parents and students.
The FITNESSGRAM assessment includes items in following three areas of fitness.
Aerobic Capacity (select one)
• The Pacer - a 20 meter progressive, multi-stage shuttle run set to music (the PACER is also available in a 15 meter distance)
• One Mile Walk/Run

Unit Overview
1. Provide each student with a racket and a ball at each class meeting. Keep everyone engaged in some aspect of playing tennis during each lesson.
2. Follow the lesson plans, which break down the following and focus on one concept per lesson:
• Racket skill⎯the grip, forehand/backhand ground strokes, the serve, and forehand/backhand volley
€€€€€€€ • Footwork⎯the waiting position, pivot, knee bend, forward and back, and side-to-side movement
• Tennis terminology⎯fault, let, turn of service, love, set, deuce, and advantage in/out
• The rules of service, receiving, and playing out a point
• Scoring of a point, a game, a set, and a match
3. Teach the economics of tennis:
• Cost of equipment
• Public and private courts
Tennis History
Tennis dates back to the Stone Age. Then, humans used clubs to hit rocks back and forth. Later, the French modernized the game of tennis. The word “tennis” comes from the French word “tenez” which means “take it” or “play.” In 1913, an international conference in Paris was held and the International Lawn Tennis Federation was founded. In 1977, “lawn” was dropped from its name. Thus, today it is the International Tennis Federation.
Fun Facts
→ Tennis disappeared from the Olympic menu after the 1924 Paris games. However, it reappeared as a full-medal sport in the 1988 Seoul games.
→ The United States Tennis Association runs more than 200 national tournaments per year.
→ In 1999, 261,535 new players began playing tennis in the United States.
→ The Women’s Tennis Association prize money surpassed $45 million in 1999.
→ Total prize money from Wimbledon Championships has grown from $26,150 in 1968 to $7,595,330 in 1999.
Benefits of Playing
1. People can burn more calories per hour playing competitive tennis than playing volleyball, swimming, canoeing, hiking, playing softball, or golfing.
2. Tennis is good for the heart!
3. Tennis can help you improve your leg strength, balance, speed, and agility.
4. Tennis is great for hand-eye coordination.
5. Tennis is fun.

One tennis racket per person
Performance Goals
1. Students will grip a tennis racket
2. Students will meet the ball on the center of the strings
3. Students will develop a firm wrist and forearm
4. Students will get and return their own equipment.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will start developing concentration, and
2. Students will learn what a tennis error is.
Lesson Safety
Practicing partners should have a minimum of 20 feet between them and other students.
Warm-Up
1. Students will jog around the playing area while carrying a tennis racket in the waiting position
2. Students will move from left to right, with body facing net, using crossover steps⎯repeat several times
3. Students will pivot to the right, step forward with the left foot while turning right, bring up the racket for the forehand, reverse directions and feet for a backhand, and end with the racket in the waiting position⎯repeat several times
4. Complete stretches
Lesson Sequence
1. Before beginning any use of the tennis racket, teach court courtesy and safety rules.
2. Teach, demonstrate, and check the proper tennis grip for the forehand.
3. Teach, demonstrate, and allow practice of using the racket (with a forehand grip) to bounce the ball to the ground as shown in figure
• Give the students a few minutes to do this.
• Ask if anyone can keep it under control 10 times
4. Call students back in:
• Demonstrate bouncing the ball to the ground using the center of the racket strings to meet the ball while keeping a forehand grip, then, without changing the grip, use the other side (upper side of the strings) to do the same in the air.
• Ask if anyone is able to control the ball on this side of the strings 10 times.
5. After students practice and are able to control the ball off the racket, tapping 10 times to the ground and 10 times to the air, bring them to the wall
• Demonstrate the same controlled bounces, now directed at the wall.
• Have students begin from one arm’s length and racket distance away, using their forehand side.
• Encourage the same moderation of just meeting and blocking the ball with a firm wrist⎯no swing at all. Aim to control 10 times, but don’t let students stay on this for more than a few minutes:
It is difficult if they do not stay close to the wall and use a simple block.
If they try to swing, there will be lots of wild balls and frustration.
6. With a student, demonstrate the following, Place a ball on the ground five feet from the student, then stand five feet from the ball, too. Using the same type of block, with a slight upward follow-through, meet the ball so it travels slightly upward and forward and drops to the target (the ball) on the ground. Ask your partner, on the ball’s rise, to block the ball back, making sure not to drop the racket head and not to hit it down, but to block it with a slight upward follow-through. Show the class how the two of you can reach out with your racket, get the strings behind the ball, and block it back after it bounces off the ground:
• Demonstrate consecutive hits, counting each tap as you go.
• Use a volley to block the ball when your practice partner hits the ball further than the target on the ground.
• Allow the students to set up and practice the game.
7. Encourage consecutive contacts with a slight upward follow-through after each bounce, meeting the ball on the rise. If the partner loses control and hits the ball a little long, encourage using the volley to meet it and hit it back so the ball stays in play. Make it into a contest:
• Who can get to 10 first?
• Who can get the highest number of consecutive taps without an error?
Review
Ask if anyone can show the class a proper grip.
Ask what part of the racket should meet the ball, and whether the player’s eyes should see it meet.
Discuss which is better⎯a limp, dangling wrist and racket or a firm wrist and forearm with the racket head up.
Review where a right-handed player meets the ball for a forehand⎯on the right or on the left⎯and where he meets a backhand.
Discuss whether it’s legal to allow the ball to bounce twice before hitting it.
Assessment
Observe each group’s ball control. If 90 percent of the class can control the ball in this close control drill for 10 consecutive taps, then the group is ready to move on to the next lesson. If not, repeat all aspects of this lesson, leaving the most time for the partner work.

Standard 1: Students will develop competency in many movement forms and proficiency in a few movement forms.
Standard 2: Students will analyze scientific concepts and principles to understand, evaluate, and enhance movement skill acquisition and performance
Standard 3: Students will participate in physical activity to achieve and maintain a health-enhancing level of physical fitness.
Standard 4: Students will develop responsible and respectful personal and social behavior in physical activity settings.
Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Performance Goals
1. Students will return to the waiting position after every contact with the ball
2. Students will meet the ball on the forehand or backhand side with a follow-through
3. Students will hit the ball over the net.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn to deal with the obstacle of the net
2. Students will improve their concentration during a lesson.
Lesson Safety
For this drill, three couples, or a maximum of four, can work over the net at a time. They can only do this because the drill is close to the net, the target being only five feet from the net, and each partner is trying to hit the ball straight. If there is a lack of control, have the students continue on the first drill until they can maintain control over the net, since the crowded conditions require control for safety.
Warm-Up
Students will
1. Practice a wall volley, at racket length distance from the wall
2. Jog around the playing area with the tennis racket in the waiting position
3. Complete footwork drills
4. Practice tennis mimetics:
• Practice forehand mimetics from the waiting position, pivoting right and stepping forward for the forehand, wrist firm, arm firm, follow-through up, and returning to the waiting position⎯do it 10 times
• Practice backhand mimetics⎯do it 10 times
Motivation
Tell your students that, believe it or not, they have begun the building blocks of solid tennis play by adding a few things at a time. In this lesson, they will try to not only keep mastering control of the racket and the ball, but they also will learn to deal with the fact that the net is in the way.
Lesson Sequence
1. After warm-ups, begin with the racket/ball control drill
• Ask students to count the consecutive taps when hitting the ball back and forth between each other.
• Give them a goal:
In the previous class, they were aiming for 10; ask them to see if they can do better.
Let them know the highest score of a previous class and ask if they can beat it.
2. Demonstrate a drill very similar to the one they have been doing. This time their target is approximately 5 feet from the other side of a net, and their practice partner is 10 feet from the other side of the net and 5 feet from where the target is and where the ball is supposed to land
• Place a ball five feet from the net on each side of the court (two balls are needed) so they become a target.
• Line up five feet from the target. Align players to that when holding their rackets on the forehand side both rackets are string to string.
• Begin rallying over the net, demonstrating how to block the ball as it rises from the bounce, so you’re hitting it back with little or no swing, and it lands near the ball on the other side, bouncing up so your partner can easily meet it with a forehand and return it. Rally forehand to forehand over the net, making sure to use the same controlled and steady swing, meeting the ball and following through (with no major backswing and no speed).
3. Send students out to practice over the net, allowing as many as four couples to share a net. After five minutes of practice, do the following:
• Ask who has gotten five hits without an error. Allow more practice. Then ask who got 10 or more contacts.
• Allow some more time, encouraging students to count on every hit.
• Rotate the partners, reemphasizing the return to the waiting position after each contact.
4. Repeat the same procedure for the backhand side:
• Ask who got 10 contacts or more.
• Rotate the partners again.
5. Discuss why to return to the waiting position after every contact.
Review
Ask the class why it is important to return to the waiting position after each contact.
Ask who can show a proper follow-through, and why it should go up.
Review what direction the strings should be facing.
Discuss what happens if they face the sky, or if they face the ground.
Performance Goals
1. Students will play a modified game using real tennis scoring
2. Students will play the whole game within the defined boundary of the service box.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn how the turn of service is determined;
2. Students will learn that a full game is served by one person until it is over
3. Students will learn tennis scoring⎯love, 15, 30, 40, game, deuce, and advantage in/out
4. Students will learn to be concerned for boundaries⎯that when someone hits the ball out, his opponent wins a point.
Warm-Up
Students will
1. Practice a wall volley at racket-length distance from the wall
2. Practice mimetics for the forehand and backhand, using footwork before the pivot turn
3. Use the short over-the-net control drill learned in the last lesson as a warm-up
Motivation
Scoring in tennis is like a foreign language. This is probably because the game developed in France. If someone calls out “40-love,” it would make no sense until you knew what it meant. Tell the class that “40-love” means the server is about to win and the receiver needs three points in a row just to tie the game. Talk about what scores mean and using this “special language” during the day’s games.
Lesson Sequence
1. Gather the students together and go over the following:
• Scoring terminology⎯love, 15, 30, 40, game
• How a tie is handled⎯deuce, advantage
• Discuss these rules:
A point is won by someone, no matter who the server.
A server’s score is always called out first.
One person serves until the game is over.
A ball landing on any part of the line is good.
2. Assign each couple to play a control game in which the ball’s bounce is confined to the service box
• Have them play point out, rallying back and forth until someone misses or the ball lands outside a boundary.
• Use tennis scoring, making sure that when one tennis game is over, the server changes.
• Allow as many games as there is time for.
3. If there is a couple waiting, have them wait by the box, helping to keep score for the people they watch. They should get to use the court and be ready to switch the minute one game is over.
4.Circulate, answering any questions about scoring that arise.
Students can practice the scoring used in tennis while completing control drills using two service boxes.
Review
Ask the class who is winning if the score is deuce.
If the score is 15-40, review whether it is the receiver or the server who is about to win.
Discuss if love is a winning score in tennis.
Ask students, if their opponent hits the ball and it lands half on the line and half off, whether it is good.

Standard 5: Students will understand that physical activity provides opportunities for enjoyment, challenge, self-expression, asocial interaction, and employment.
Facility
This lesson requires half the width of a court for every two players. Extra students must use the wall or practice volleying on the field.
Performance Goals
1. Students will play the full-length court using most tennis rules, with the following modifications:
- A service modification allows a regular drop-and-hit method of putting the ball into play.
- The serve will not be directed to the diagonal box.
- Their games must be played in half the width of the court.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn the boundaries for the whole court.
2. Students will learn the following service rules:
• The ball must be put into play from off the court.
• The serve must land in the service box or on its lines, without touching the net.
• The server is allowed a second serve if the first does not enter the box.
• A serve that touches the net is called a let.
• A double fault results in a point for the opponent.
Warm-Up
Students will
1. Pick up a racket and tennis ball and complete 2-3 laps around tennis facility.
2. Complete a short control drill over the net or in any space available
3. Practice mimetics of a full backswing with a pivot step for backhand and forehand
Motivation
One of the most frustrating parts of tennis, for new and old players, is that opponents can win games without ever doing anything at all. Tell students to imagine being able to play a great game once the ball gets put into play, but always losing their own service game because they cannot make the ball land in the correct service box. In this class, students will be using almost all the service rules of an official game while sticking to the skills they already have mastered on the short court. Invite them to use whatever method they choose for getting the ball over the net into play, because they have to make sure they can get the ball in the service box from off the court.

1. Teach the service rules to be used:
• The server must serve from off the court, behind the baseline.
• The ball must land in the service box or on the line, or it is a fault.
• The ball cannot touch the net⎯when it is a let and when it is a fault.
• Double faults lead to the opponent’s point.
• Servers get two turns to serve before losing a point if they are not able to get the serve in the diagonal service box.
2. Teach students the courtesy of returning all the balls to the server, so the server always has two and an uninterrupted turn of service.
3. Plan for equitable court time for all players. If you have more players than courts, substitutes must be given some job: calling the faults, keeping score, or practicing against a close-by wall. (All court space is now being used since games are full court.)
4. Some classes may be ready for a skill test in tennis. Some may need more practice.
Review
Congratulate the class, and tell students they have done some great work playing a game in half the space used during normal singles play.
Ask if there are any questions.
Review what the score would be if a player cannot get the ball in the service box once or twice.
Discuss what happens if the serve touches the net and goes in the box, and if it doesn’t.
Ask students why they want at least two balls in their pockets when they serve.
Assessment
This lesson has developed the students’ abilities to control the ball. If the class is not in control, we may need to repeat past lessons. Playing a game in half the width of the court can be rewarding. It allows players more hits and a better opportunity to improve their skills, focus, and concentration⎯but if students are not up to it, don’t do it.

Lesson Focus: Tennis
Performance Goal
1, Students will play doubles.
Cognitive Goals
1. Students will learn what strategies there are for doubles and their rationale:
• Hitting the ball down the middle unless one has an opening
• Doubles is a game of angles
• Avoid hitting to the other team’s net person
• Poaching⎯the net player moves over to cut off a ball going to his partner and volleys the ball back onto the other court
learn some general ideas for responding to a returning shot down the middle that splits both players:
• The forehand takes the shot.
• The person who just played the ball is the one most natural to play the shot down the middle.
Warm-Up
Students will
1. Complete a control drill for volley and short game
2. Practice a rally from the baseline
3. Complete five practice serves
Lesson Sequence
1. Explain strategies:
• Sometimes being steady and letting the opponent err is the way to win.
• Going out and winning the game means placing opponents at a disadvantage or in a state of confusion:
Doubles strategies that create confusion include hitting the ball down the middle.
Strategies that place opponents at a disadvantage are poaching, using wide angles, and hitting the ball to the open spaces.
Strategies that avoid putting one’s own team at a disadvantage include
• Not hitting the ball to the other team’s net person,
• Letting the forehand take the shot down the middle, and
• Covering one’s own zone on the court.
2. Assign students to their own courts and have them begin doubles play.
Review
Ask students how many hit a shot down the middle.
Ask how many anticipated the shot and prevented it from becoming a winner.
