Link to Utah State Standard

Objectives (Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor)

Safety Issues: Field being wet and students slipping, and students kicking the light ball so high and hard

Grouping for each activity: Students will be grouped into 7 teams

Technical Description: Students started with a warm up of 4 minutes and 30 seconds jogging. Then students stretch in assigned lines, with leader in front. Students do hang downs, 30 jumping jacks, standing reach right over left/ switch, 12 lunges, 25 sit-ups, 10 push-ups.

Students will then sit in assigned teams. Students sat in teams and then certain students went outside to set up the fields. Now review the game rules which are:
1. Keep the ball on the ground when pitching. If it bounces then it is a re-pitch.
2. No stealing bases. 3. The kicking lines have to go boy girl boy girl
3. Once a team has scored 5 pts then it is an automatic 3 outs and switch
4. The line starts where it ended the last time
5. You cannot throw the ball at each other from far away on only 3 ft no further. You can run with the ball and touch the runner to get them out, or catch the ball in the air.
6. Be safe and have fun. After reviewing these rules we went outside and played games on 3 fields. 1vs 2, 3 vs. 4, 5 vs.6, 7 vs. Lambs class.

Learning Experiences (introduction, drills)

Explain the rules and regulations with Physical Education Kickball

Tell students that everyone should have the chance to play every position throughout the unit; however, find strengths on the teams

When kicking line up on the left if kicking with the right foot and vice versa for left footed

Grouping/Transition: Stay in Teams

Verbal cues
-Keep the ball on the ground
- Kick with the side of your foot to keep ball low
-Keep your eye on the ball when catching
-know what bases are loaded in order to get an out

Game: The teams will be on 3 different fields that I will be watching and instructing. They will play kickball set up like a softball field and using a red kickball for the game. Students will run after they kick to first base. No stealing bases throughout the game. After 3 catches or outs then the teams switch from out field to infield or vice versa.

Closure:
Explain to the students about finding the strength in the team and how they should set up the fields
Explain the importance of kicking correctly in order to score points
Review any rules that may have be confused that day
Ask if there is any questions

Review/ Assessment: Watch students participation throughout the week and see if they are actively engaged in the games and receiving the full workout.

Suggestions for follow-up: Review assessments marks and see which students are making progress and which ones need more assistance. Play competitive games throughout the week for students to get practice and maintain a high hear rate.

Most of the period today we went of rule of the kickball games. We went outside and showed them how the fields will be set up, and reviewed the game rules which are:
1. Keep the ball on the ground when pitching. If it bounces then it is a re-pitch.
2. No stealing bases.
3. The kicking lines have to go boy girl boy girl
3. Once a team has scored 5 pts then it is an automatic 3 outs and switch

6. Be safe and have fun. After reviewing these rules we went outside and drilled kicking and catching the kickball. This gave the students a chance to realize the weight and feel of the kickball compared to the soccer ball.

Field Sports- Baseball

September 22, 2010 Written by E. C. and B. C.,
Weber State University, 11 students,
Equipment: Mitts 11, Baseball’s 8, Bats 4, Bases, Cones 4
Activity: Throwing, hitting, and catching in Baseball

Objectives:
Psychomotor- Learn how to throw a baseball. (All of the Cues) Observe and watch them at the beginning of class and then observe at the end to see if they learned the skill.

Cognitive- Have students think about the cues as I am going over them. And have them do the cues with me as I am teaching.

Health related- Muscular strength- must be able to throw a baseball from about 30 feet away.

Affective- Have them Feel Confident in throwing a baseball. Ask them how the cue is going, if they have questions, help them feel more comfortable with the cue.

Teaching Cues: First explain and demonstrate cues to students. Have them do the cues with you as you are teaching. (7 minutes)

Throwing a Baseball
1. Use a forward stride position with the dominate leg back. Right handed throwers will have the right leg back; left handed throwers will have the left leg back.
2. Throw from a stable base.
3. Face the target.
4. Increase the speed of movement
5. Shift the center of gravity form backward to forward.
6. Rotate the throwing side forward and transfer weight to the front leg.
7. Lead the arm motion with the elbow.
8. Release with a wrist snap. Follow through in the intended direction of flight.

Catching
1. Maintain stability by using a forward stride position.
2. Focus on and track the oncoming ball; align the body squarely behind the ball as it comes toward the catcher.
3. Use a large surface to catch the ball, and on contact give with the arms and hands to absorb the force of the ball. Transfer weight backward to help absorb the force of the ball.
4. If the ball is above the waist level, turn the glove so that the fingers are pointing upward; if the ball is below the waist, point the fingers downward.
5. Use the glove hand for initial contact, then use the other hand to immediately stabilize the ball.

Activities:
1. Increase throwing ability. (7 Min.)
Students will start at 10 feet away practicing throwing the baseball back and forth to each other. Once students have done the drill for a minute students will step back to the next cone which will be 20 feet apart. Students will practice doing this till they have it down. Students will do this till they reach the fourth cone. The fourth cone is 40 feet away.

2. Hitting a baseball. (15 Min)
Students will practice hitting a baseball by hitting it off the tee. There will be four different tees. Students will break up into 4 groups. One student will hit the ball off the tee. One will be the catcher for the hitter. And the rest of the group will be in the outfield to catch the baseballs.

3. Game Play (10 Min.)
Students will play in a game setting. Teacher will separate students into two teams. One team will be batting first and the other team will be in the outfield. Students will play a game setting of lineup baseball. The team batting will have everyone bat once. once everyone has batted, the other team will come in for their turn. Score will be kept on students that score.



Closure: Review cues, ask for questions, and see how they felt about the drills and cues.
