Overview

The following sequences of activities are based around the subject area of

Health and Physical Education and focus on the Strand of Movement and

Physical Activity, specifically Moving our body. Lessons and activities have

been planned and based around the Year 7 and 8 Health and Physical

Education Curriculum. The activities involve investigation and inquiry

activities, incorporating a variety of ICT elements.

The lessons provided clearly make use of strategies for differentiating

curriculum and teaching, for diverse leaners and to support engagement

in learning. Each lesson is verbally explained and physically demonstrated

to allow for students to learn in the way that best suits them. There is a

chance for students to check for understanding before the activity is

commenced and during the activity. Students are offered the chance to

modify the game. They are too come up with ideas on how to make the

game harder, easier or give the game a different purpose. This keeps

student engagement high and allows for creative thinking.

The three lessons provided build upon the students capabilities. In lesson

One and Three, Critical and Creative Thinking and Personal and Social

Capability are the general capabilities addressed. Critical and Creative

Thinking general capability is developed through learning experiences

(such as modified games and scenarios) that encourage the students to

seek solutions. Students are continuously problem solving throughout.

Students are to come up with modifications to the game, which also

encourages critical and creative thinking. The Personal and Social

Capability is continuously addressed throughout lesson one. Students gain

1
and appreciation for their individual strengths and abilities, as well as their

classmates abilities. This awareness potentially comes from the team

work required and the constant problem solving. Student also develop a

variety of skills including but not limited to; communication, negotiation,

teamwork and leadership.

Lesson Two is an ICT focused lesson. The general capabilities addressed

are; Numeracy and Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

Capability. Numeracy is identified throughout. Movement patterns are

evaluated and data is created. Calculations and measurements are used

during the lesson. Students use ICT to create content and analyse

performance. ICT is used to engage learners as students are creating data

themselves and challenging themselves. Todays generation are very ICT

driven and is therefore very appropriate to incorporate.

Per the learning continuum, at the end of year 8 there are certain

expectations that should be met. This helps with the strategies to

assessing students knowledge.

Students should be able to; Pose questions, Identify and clarify

information and ideas, Organize and process information, imagine

possibilities and connect ideas, consider alternatives, seek solutions and

put ideas into action, think about thinking (metacognition), Reflect on

processes, Transfer knowledge into new contexts, apply logic and

reasoning, draw conclusions and design a course of action and Evaluate

procedures and outcomes.

An explanation of the lessons will be delivered to students through verbal,

written and demonstration formats. This caters for the diversity of

learning in students. Students will sit in a semi-circle, facing away from

the sun and facing the teacher. No equipment will be in reach. Each

student will be given a handout explaining the lesson, will watch a

demonstration and will listen to instruction. Students will be instructed to

listen when the teacher is talking, and raise a hand for any questions or

concerns.

Each lesson will be assessed differently. If successful learning occurs, the

student is competent. Feedback will be provided during the task and once

the task has been completed.

Students will learn to improve body control and coordination in a variety

of situations. Students will also practice, apply and transfer movement

concepts and strategies.

Prior Knowledge:

Students need to have a familiarity with basic movement patterns.

Students may have prior knowledge In regards to sports or movement

patterns from outside school activities or sports. Students should have

met the year 5 and 6 achievement standard:

By the end of Year 6, students investigate developmental changes and

transitions. They explain the influence of people and places on identities.

They recognise the influence of emotions on behaviours and discuss

factors that influence how people interact. They describe their own and

others contributions to health, physical activity, safety and wellbeing.

They describe the key features of health-related fitness and the

significance of physical activity participation to health and wellbeing.

They examine how physical activity, celebrating diversity and connecting

to the environment support community wellbeing and cultural

understanding.

Students demonstrate fair play and skills to work collaboratively. They

access and interpret health information and apply decision-making and

problem-solving skills to enhance their own and others health, safety

and wellbeing. They perform specialised movement skills and sequences

and propose and combine movement concepts and strategies to achieve

movement outcomes and solve movement challenges. They apply the

elements of movement when composing and performing movement

The game is explained:

The game is a modified netball game.

The aim of the game is to successfully

pass the ball 5 times and then

complete a goal score. To score a goal,

the ball must be passed between the

two markers at the end. Both teams

can score in either goal. Each team

member can go anywhere in the court

and can score. If the ball goes out of

times per team before a goal can be

scored and an automatic turnover is

Activity:

The task is explained:

The task is an incorporation of ICT. It is

an analysis and reflection upon

sporting performance. Students will

learn to self-reflect and strategize to

improve performance. Students will

choose a measurable aspect of netball

performance to analyse. This aspect

must be something that affects

performance. Students can choose

from: Knee angle upon initial

grounding contact when receiving a

pass, Wrist extension angle at point of

ball release when completing a pass,

cones will set out 1 metre apart,

activity will be performed within the

space. Camera will be set up correctly

so the whole movement phase will be

recorded (not too close or too far way).

The movement will be recorded and
