LESSON PLAN OBJECTIVES AND LIFE SKILLS


Skill Development 1. Basic Skill Instruction TSW refine swimming skills and diving skills taught in previous lessons. 2. Application of Skills TSW apply the skills demonstrated during the class throughout the period. Fitness Benefits 3. Skill Related Fitness TSW learn diving form and gain coordination from different diving positions. 4. Health Related Fitness TSW improve endurance and cardiovascular activity during the lesson from performing the different swimming strokes. Life Skills 5. Effort TSW be assessed on their effort based on the personal checklist made for them. 6. Goal Setting TSW be asked to reach various goals for each skill or activity.

Introduction Total time: 3 Lesson Objective(s): #1 I will bring the students together outside of the pool and tell them what skills we will be practicing and ask if there is anything else they would like to do if there is time at the end. Planned Transitions Pick a couple diving toys and move into the deeper end.

Formations / Cues

Assessment

I will ask the students if they have any questions and if they understand everything for what we will be doing. -Do you remember what we worked on last time? -Can you show me the skills we worked on last time? -What are the teaching cues for a kneeing diving?

Main Activities / Total time: 25


Lesson objective(s): 2,3,4,6 The following skills will be demonstrated and described to the students. TSW then practice and show that they are able to do all the skills to the described goal
-Front crawl (breathing) -Elementary backstroke (arms) -Elementary backstroke (legs) -Tread water (arms) -Tread water (legs) -Standing dive -Dive from low board

Formations / Cues
Formation 1

Assessment

See attached check list

-see fishes hear fishes - tickle T touch -frog kick -Big slow waving, thumbs up forward, thumbs down backward -Big slow kicks -Lean forward, hands hit first, dives down -Lean forward, hands hit first, pushes with legs, dive out for distance

Planned Transitions If time pick some toys to dive for and play with or jump off low board

Cool Down

Formations / Assessment Strategy Formation 1

Total time: 5 minutes


Lesson objective(s): -If time pick some toys to dive for and play with or jump off low board.

-review strokes and skills practiced and cues used for each stroke or activity Assessment at the end of the lesson
All assessment will be done using the personal check list.

Equipment needs Toy bag

Safety Considerations -no running on pool deck -watch were you are swimming/diving, very busy and full pool -stay closer to the wall if you get tired, we will be in deep end most of the time

Differentiated Instruction Modify equipment-If students have any trouble swimming life vest can be used or if there is room we will move closer to the shallow end. Modify task- if the students are having trouble with any skills they can practice by holding the wall first. Modify instruction- skills can be demonstrated as many times as needed by teacher and different cues can be used. Classroom Management/Democratic Practices If students are struggling with a skill or become bored quickly the teacher will move onto the next skill or take a break and play with the toys for a little while.

Adapted Aquatics Teaching Self-Evaluation #3


Answer the following questions after teaching your lesson and submit into Self-Evaluation #3 dropbox in D2L. Name: ___T.J. Williams_______________ Date of teaching: _____4/25/2013_______________ 1) What did I teach? (Lesson objectives) Though out this lesson various swimming strokes and diving techniques were refined that had been demonstrated in previous lessons. During the lesson the student also was able to improve their coordination and cardiovascular activity though out the lesson. 2) Did you achieve your lesson objectives? Why or why not? I feel that after the lesson I did achieve my objectives because throughout the lesson the student had visible fatigue and was also able to improve on certain strokes from the last class period. 3) Has your student successfully met his or her goal? Looking to the future, what would you suggest as an additional goal for this student to work towards in the aquatic setting? Explain why you would choose this goal. I feel that though out the semester the student improved great and became closer to achieving the goals I set for him in his PLOEP. Of the three goals I set for the student I feel that he achieved two of them and made great improvements towards achieving the third. After trying multiple times I observed the student perform the front crawl with width of the pool performing the front crawl and using rhythmic breathing without stopping. The student also was able to tread water for 30 seconds 2 of 3 times in a class period, keeping his head above the water by kicking and waving with his arms and legs. In the future for this student I would continue to have him practice performing a kneeling dive from the edge of the pool correctly and swim underwater for 15 feet because he had not met this goal. 4) Do you feel more comfortable working with student with special needs in the aquatic environment than at the beginning of the semester? What helped bring about this change in comfortability? What area do you feel you still need to become better at (i.e. lesson planning, providing clear instructions, understanding content knowledge better)? I feel that after this semester I do feel a little more comfortable working with a student with special needs in the pool. The only thing I feel I would need more practice with is instruction and lesson planning for a different student with special needs, this is because the student I worked with was very high functioning and old enough that he could do just about everything on the original check list. I feel that working with a lower functioning student to help improve my instruction giving and overall patience.
