5 vs. 5 Mini Softball

Five people on a defensive team (Pitcher, 1st Baseman, 2nd Baseman, Catcher, and Fielder) Five batters on offensive team.

Field is a triangle shape with first base on the right field line and second base on the left field line. The pitcher’s mound is placed a reasonable distance from home plate and in the middle of the triangle field. The distance between 1st and 2nd base might be 30 yards.

Play - All batters bat. They may hit a pitch or a ball off a tee (their choice). The batter is not out on foul or swings; however, 5 fouls or 5 missed swings demand that the batter hit from a tee. A team’s turn at bat is over when the last batter has hit the ball and play on that hit is completed.
5 vs. 5 Mini Soccer

Five to six players per team. Goals are large garbage cans placed about 40-50 yards apart in an open field. Play starts and resumes after each goal at center field with a center kick. There are no "out of bounds". Teams can score from any side of the garbage can. Only one defender can be within 5 feet of the garbage can at any time. (This rule is to encourage players to challenge the offensive player and not surround the goals).

PHYSICAL EDUCATION STUDENT(S) PROJECT

Students select an activity currently being introduced through the physical education program. Students are asked to develop a four-week training and conditioning program for this activity. Included in this training program should be

  1. an analysis of the basic skills (dribbling, trapping, passing, shooting), movement patterns (running, sprinting, change of direction, backward running, defensive slide) and fitness requirements (cardiovascular endurance, strength, flexibility, power, speed, reaction time) of the activity. Then, using the information obtained in this skill/movement analysis, students present
  2. an assessment of their current skill and fitness status. Finally, they
  3. describe specific conditioning exercises and practice procedures for their four-week training and conditioning program.

This project is wide open for presentation style. It can be presented as a short synopsis report to the class; as a formal presentation with charts, diagrams, and demonstrations; or perhaps as an instructional video.

We will set aside Project Presentation Days toward the end of the quarter. Students contracting for An A in physical education will need to schedule themselves for a presentation date and return this form with the following: a short description of their project, time line for completion, and parent signature.

STUDENT PROJECT

This project is geared toward learning and reviewing the muscles of the body as well as practicing or describing the correct safety technique used in strength training. The following criteria must be met by either a Poster, Diagram, Report, Demonstration, Video Analysis, or other teacher approved activity.

  1. The student will analyze five(5) different strength training exercises from the list at the bottom of the page.

  2. One exercise must work a leg muscle.
    One exercise must work an arm muscle.
    One exercise must work the abdominal muscles.
    One exercise must work the torso (not including the abs.) (Ex. Bench Press).
    One exercise must be different than the four above and is the student’s choice.

  3. The student will define the major muscle group worked. (Ex. Bench Press = Pectoralis Major.)

  4. The student will define the minor muscle(s) group worked. (Ex. Bench Press = Triceps.)

  5. The student will describe the proper technique or mechanics for each exercise. (Ex. Making sure that your upper arms travel directly out to the sides (elbow out), slowly bend your arms and lower the weight straight downward until it touches the plates. Push the weight back up to the starting position, and repeat for the required number of repetitions.)

Physical Education Goals Rubric
Part 1

Goal: Each goal must be attainable. If your partner believes that your goal is attainable, you will receive two points for each year end goal you set.

Strategies: You need two strategy statements describing your plan to accomplish each of your fitness goals. Your strategy statements are each worth points. Each statement should contain the following 4 essential elements:

What
you are going to accomplish.
How
you are going to accomplish it.
When
you are going to accomplish it.And,
Where
, you are going to accomplish it.

Examples:

I will do 20push-ups every night at home before I go to bed.
I will stretch my lower back and hamstring musclesfor 5 minutes at home each night.
Each of these examples would be worth 4 points. They contain the 4 essential elements for a strategy statement.

With your partner, grade each other’s paper using the following rubric to score each strategy statement

4 = A statement that contains all 4 essential elements (examples above).
3 = A statement that contains 3 of the essential elements. (I will do push-ups at home each week.)
2 =
A statement that contains only 2 of the essential elements. (I will do push-ups each week.)
1 =
A statement that contains only 1 essential element. (I will do push-ups.)
0 = No statement, no essential elements. (I will practice more.)
Part 2

Margin of Improvement Goals: Partners should check the margin of improvement goal for each item. This goal should be the difference between the year end goal and the first score for each test item taken, divided by the total number of tests taken in an effort to attain this goal.

Example: My first mile time was 9:23. My year-end goal is 7:50. I subtract 7:50 from 9:23 and get 83 seconds. I will run the mile six times in an effort to achieve my goal. I divide 83 seconds by (six) 6. My margin of improvement on each test should be approximately 14 seconds.

Sportsmanship

Define sportsmanship in your own words:





Scenario:

Two soccer teams have a reputation for doing whatever it takes to win. A week before the two teams meet, the athletic directors from each school mandate a “NO win at all cost” policy in an effort to address the sportsmanship concern. Any athlete seen cheating or acting violently will be removed from the team. Out of fear of removal from the team, the athletes play a soccer match that is devoid of any violence or cheating. There are several instances when opposing team members exchange menacing looks during both the game and the post-game handshake. Nonetheless, both athletic directors and coaches celebrate their accomplishment. Were their efforts successful?

Did sportsmanship occur?





How do we build (teach) sportsmanship?





Identify characteristics of someone demonstrating good sportsmanship.






Citizenship Assignments

I call these assignments citizenship assignments to get the kids focused on being a part of a community (school) and contributing back to that community in a positive way, or being a productive/positive citizen of our school community.

Each student will receive two to three citizenship assignments throughout the quarter. When students are given an assignment, they have that assignment for one week. These assignments will be factored into their grade. They are graded on responsibility and completion.

I incorporate the following citizenship assignments into my class:

  1. Equipment Helpers - 2 or more students de upon the amount of equipment being used.
  2. Squad Leaders - 2 or more de upon the format. These students are responsible for guiding the students in their warm-up/stretch.
  3. Record Keepers - 4 students (2 boys and 2 girls) are responsible for handing out any assignment sheets to the class while I give instruction. Each student has a portfolio that is kept in a girl's bin or a boy's bin for that class section. The record keepers are responsible for handing the portfolios out and collecting them if necessary. (I have found that this process really eliminates the congestion that surrounds the bin when students get their own individual folder, and it virtually eliminates papers being torn, lost, stolen, and/or misplaced by other students in search of their own work.)
  4. Locker Room Helpers - 2 students are the last to leave the locker room at the start of class and at the end of class. They are responsible for being an extra set of eyes and ears, and for making sure all clothes or other items are picked up and secured in lockers.
  5. Floor Sweepers - 2 students are responsible for sweeping the floor before class begins.
  6. Heart Rate Monitors - We have 5 heart rate monitors at our school. 5 students are assigned the HRM's each week with a corresponding activity.
  7. Sticker Picker - 2 students are assigned to sticker patrol. These two students award stickers to two other students for what they consider to be outstanding student behavior, special feats, and exceptional leadership. Stickers are awarded at the end of the week. The two students selected become the next two sticker pickers.

Locker Room Helper

5 Asks for key at the beginning of class and at the end of class to open and lock the locker room.
Is the last to leave the locker room to assure its cleanliness and to offer assistance to student having difficulty getting ready for class.
Locks the locker room as they depart for class. Returns the key to the teacher. Opens the locker room if students need to re-enter during class. Assures teacher that the locker room is clean before departing for next class.

3 Might need a reminder about assignment, but once reminded, completes the assignment as defined above.

1 Forgets continually to get records, pass them out, and put them away. When passing out folders, progress is very time consuming. Folders may get disorganized or messed up by the record keeper.


PHYSICAL EDUCATION PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT ASSIGNMENT

You have one week to complete this assignment with a friend and/or individually.

May is Physical Fitness and Sport Month. To celebrate this month and to help people understand the importance of exercise, fitness, and physical education, you will be writing a public serviceannouncement about physical education, fitness, and/or health. Our goal is to select five(5) to ten(10) quality PSA's and record them for public broadcasting throughout the month of May.

  1. Look through the packet of information regarding physical education.
  2. Decide which article or topic you would like to use to help develop your announcement. Your PSA is an informative message. You will need to gather facts from your article and/or other information.
  3. Two examples are given to you. Use these examples to help you develop your ideas about how to use the information contained in your article.
  4. Begin brainstorming and fast writing. If you are having difficulty, think in terms of Who, What, When, Where? Your completed PSA should be approximately 35 - 45 seconds in length when read outloud.
  5. Share with your language arts teachers for their input and guidance. Remember, your PSA is an informative message.
