Ultimate Frisbee 9/21

Weber State University Physical Education
Lesson Plan

Activity: Ultimate Frisbee

Skill(s): Catching on the go, throwing

Grade Level: 7th to 9th grade

# of Students: 40 Equipment: Frisbees, Cones

Connect to Utah State Standard: Standard 2 Objective 2 A. Recognize that time and effort are prerequisites for skill improvement.

Learning Objectives:

Cognitive- Students will know how to correctly throw a Frisbee.

Affective- Students will want to complete the pass and catch the Frisbee.

Psychomotor- Students will complete at least 5 passes.

Safety Issues: Be careful where you are running. Don’t run into the football posts.

Student grouping for each activity: Randomly done by whistle mixer to get 8 lines, 4 running lines.

Technical Description of the skills: To complete this drill there will be a standing/ throwing line and a running/ catching line. The first person in the running line will break away and open up for a pass. The thrower will then complete a pass to the runner. The goal is to complete the pass on the go just like in game play. See the diagram below.

Verbal Cues: Follow through, Now or Pass

Learning Experiences:
Introduction- We will try out different skills to give the girls a chance to see what they are good at and what they think they would like to improve on. We will do the warm up as well. We will do less stretching and more running or less running and more stretching, I will let them choose.

Closure- We will talk about how the give and goes will be used in game play. And ask the girls how they liked doing this drill.

Assessments: I will ask the girls how many times they were able to complete a pass and if they liked being the thrower or runner more.

Follow up suggestions: Let them do the same drill but teach them more about defense and offense.

Reference:

Diagram of learning environment and equipment set up:


Purple Square= Cone
Orange dots= Standing/ throwing line
Green dots= Runners/ receivers
Blue Circles= Frisbees

The purple cone is there to ensure that the students have adequate space to throw the Frisbee. We want this to be more of a give and go drill so there needs to be distance between the players.
