Name: Marci Barker
Activity: Step aerobics
Skill(s): Warm up, cool down and workout
Grade Level: 8th Grade Girls
# of students: 30
Equipment (what and how much) 31 Steps, music micro phone, 8 mats.
Link to Utah State Standard – standard 2. Obj. 3 a.
Objectives (Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor)
Cognitive- Students will remember and recall the combos to do them later.
Affective- Students will feel the intensity with different levels with risers.
Psychomotor- Students will learn step combinations that they have never done before.
Safety Issues- Entire foot needs to make contact with the bench, shoes need to be tied and everyone needs to get a drink at the drink breaks.
Grouping for each activity: Students will not be grouped but they will be organized based on height. We will put taller people in the back and then rotate so everyone has a chance to be in the front.
Technical Description: Step aerobics requires the ability to stay at a set pace either with the teacher or the music. I will perform each movement before I ask them to do it. I will perform it slow and as many times as needed to ensure every one gets it. We will learn about the warm up, work out and cool down. Step also requires progression as you cannot learn the second step until you have learned the first one.
Learning Experiences (introduction, drills)
1 First thing will be to introduce what the steps are used for and I will also make sure that the students know about their different levels available. We will listen to music and clap according to the beat so that I can know who may have a problem or we can clear it up before we try it on the steps so that no one gets embarrassed.
2 Next we will do the warm up off the bench so they know that a warm up is important for every activity we do. We will also have drink breaks scheduled so that they learn staying hydrated is important as well. We will move onto the workout and I will talk about progression as they learn it.
3 The cool down will then come next. We will slowly take it off the bench and finish our cool down on the floor. We will be able to tell that our heart rate has lowered.
Verbal cues
I will always give positive feedback and encouragement. Also alignment cues will be necessary as time goes on in the rush of things.
Review/ Assessment:
This is a review when it comes to taking our heart rates and warming up.
Suggestions for follow-up: none
Reference none

Step Aerobic Lesson Plan and Assessment
Weber State University Physical Education
Lesson Plan
Marci Barker and Rebecca Payton
Activity: Step Aerobics- Cardiovascular fitness
Skill(s): Rhythm and Dance, aerobic and anaerobic activity
Grade Level: 7-9
# of Students: 15-17
Equipment: Music, steps, assessment papers
Connect to Utah State Standard: Fitness for Life - Standard 2 Objective 3 E. Compare aerobic and anaerobic activities, showing examples of each.
Learning Objectives:
Cognitive- Students will know how to keep a beat and complete and remember the combinations by the end of the class period.
Affective- Students will feel competent in doing both aerobic and anaerobic activity by the end of the class period and record their feelings on their answer sheet about their experience with step aerobics.
Psychomotor- Students will demonstrate how to correctly maneuver their bodies to complete the combination.
Safety Issues: Students need to be aware of their foot placement on the bench and stay within their own area.
Student grouping for each activity: Students will not be grouped just spread out, each with their own step bench. Periodically we will switch up the rows and columns with everyone moving to the left or everyone moving up a row.
Technical Description of the skills: Students will first learn how to keep a beat and then we will work with progression to learn the step combinations. The combinations will consist of the following step moves: V steps, revolving door, corner knees, rocking horse, knee walk, over the top, corner claps, and 3 knee repeater.
Verbal Cues: 3 more, 5-6-7-8, make sure entire foot is making contact with the bench and floor, and pick your intensity.
Learning Experiences:
Introduction- We will first go over what we are doing for the day and address the standard we are covering. Step aerobics is a great workout that can be modified to fit any level of fitness. We will also do a conditioning period where anaerobic exercises will take place.
Closure- Remember that cardiovascular endurance is important but so is muscular strength and endurance. The two can be intertwined with step aerobics.
Assessments: We will have students record their feelings during and at the end of the class period. They will circle the number to indicate how hard they worked during the aerobic section and anaerobic section. They will choose a number 1-10 to represent how they felt. They will also tell about the experience with step and how it can be good to use in the future for their fitness.
Follow up suggestions: Do more rhythmic dancing and activities or involve music in future lessons to set the pace or atmosphere of what you want to do.
Reference: Marci’s job as a fitness instructor and Rebecca’s recent experience with aerobic conditioning.
Diagram of learning environment and equipment set up: This is how the steps will be set up.
