Theory
The continuation of understanding how to develop a lesson plan was the main focus in today's session. The introduction or the 'warm up' is the first part of the Physical Education lesson plan. It is where the teacher needs to develop an activity to help students gear up for the lesson to be taught ahead. the class was asked to research what a warm up is about.
A warm up gradually revs up your cardiovascular system by raising your body temperature and increasing blood flow to your muscles. It helps reduce soreness and lesson your risk of injury. In addition, it helps prepare the body for aerobic activity. Examples are either tag or line tag.
There are three parts to the content area of this lesson plan. The first one is movement experience which consist of the main activity or skill that will be taught in the lesson plan. The second one is organization. This is about how the teacher will organize students for the particular activities, how the space is used, as well, the equipment used for the lesson. In general, the organization is about how you organize everything for the lesson to be executed successfully. The last one of the content area is the teaching points/cues. This area is for the teacher to stay specifically what the students are supposed to do within the activity. For example, the what the students are to do and not to do in order to complete the activity.
The lecturer discussed about the movement experience as the movement task which is the act, process or result of moving. According to her, it must be planned, be developmentally appropriate, have value to the lesson and must be progressive.
Practical
For this practical session, the lecturer made us walk and do other motor skills as a warm up. Next, she asked the students what is a shape and if they can form a shape using their body. Next, students formed pairs to do another activity. In this activity, one person of the pair have to make a shape first and the other person will follow, however, both individuals are not to touch each other. This was done several times. Next, one of the person had to do symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes one after the other while the other partner follow along.
Another activity was practicing bases. A base of the body is where a large area or small area of the body can be used to balance the body. Each pair of students had to do three bases. Most bases used were the feet, back, bottom and legs. Next, students form groups of four to form a shape by using three different bases. Gathering around to talk about what was learnt from today's session concludes class session.
