6. Procedures/Methods-

A. Introduction-

1.9th Grade students are at a crucial stage in the developmental process and need to know what activities can either benefit or harm them.
2.Every kid in the class participates in sports and are not as physically strong as the older kids they play with or against, weight training can close that gap.
3.We do not know how long our pool will be operational, and we must use it while we can.
 

B. Development-

1.The students have been playing basketball and have made drastic improvements. I will continue to fine tune weak points in their games.
2.Each Monday I will lecture on a selected health topic and will provide a video if appropriate. We can also work on our writing by creating and "Exit Slip" describing what they learned.
 

C. Practice-

1.As discussed above, the students will write one paragraph summaries as their "Exit Slips" from class on Mondays.
2.We will work in the weight room on Tuesdays, I will demonstrate each lift and ensure that students utilize proper technique and follow safety rules of the weight room.
3.I will continue to lifeguard and lead the students in aqua aerobics on Wednesdays.
 

D. Independent Practice-

1.We will conduct a weight training mid-quarter circuit during the week of February 4-7.
2.I will referee or take part in each basketball scrimmage and stop the game to discuss unique circumstances or when good coaching/teaching opportunities arise in the contest.
 

E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-

1.I will Continue to partner up basketball players with different ability levels.
2.I will spend extra time teaching weight training techniques as this class has many relatively new lifters.
 

F. Checking for understanding-

I will evaluate each student each day for participation as well as understanding.
 

G. Closure-

I will wrap up this section on 3/7/13 and will have the students complete and written and physical section assessment.
