Frisbee Lesson Plan 3 - Wednesday

EQUIPMENT:

1 Beanbag per student
8 Cones, 6 hoops, 6 flags, 4 long ropes
1 Hula hoop per student
40 Frisbees
Music for Walk, Trot, Sprint

OUTCOMES:

The student will:

Participate in Addition Tag demonstrating cooperative skills, agility, and following the instructions described by the instructor.
Participate in Walk, Jog, Sprint to improve aerobic capacity, strength, endurance, and flexibility during the Fitness section of class.
Demonstrate throwing and catching a Frisbee as demonstrated by the instructor.
Participate in Frisbee Three Passes demonstrating cooperative skills and following the rules presented by the instructor during the closing portion of class.

NATIONAL STANDARDS: 1-5

Addition Tag

INSTRUCTIONS:

Students move across the teaching area with a partner and avoid the taggers in the middle of the floor. If tagged, the partners trade places or stay in the middle to make it more difficult for others to cross the area.

TEACHING HINTS:

If partners lose their grip, they must stay in the middle and become taggers.

Walk, Jog, Sprint

INSTRUCTIONS:

Move to the following signals:

One whistle – walk.
Two whistles – jog slowly.
Three whistles – sprint under control
Long whistle – freeze and perform exercises.

Perform various strength and flexibility exercises between bouts of walk, trot, and sprint. Examples are:

Bend and Twist
Sitting Stretch
Push-Up Challenges
Abdominal Challenges
Trunk Twister
Body Circles
Crab Walk

TEACHING HINTS:

Tape alternating segments of silence and music to signal duration of exercise. Music segments indicate aerobic activity (30-45 seconds) while intervals of silence announce flexibility and strength development activities (30 seconds).

Assure that students run under control (not as fast as they can) and in the same direction.

Encourage students to perform at a level they feel comfortable. Youngsters are genetically different and should not be expected to do the same amount of exercise repetitions.

Throwing Skills

INSTRUCTIONS:

Throw the Frisbee at different levels to partner.
Throw a curve–to the left, right and upward. Vary the speed of the curve.
Throw a bounce pass–try a low and a high pass.
Throw the disc like a boomerang. Must throw at a steep angle into the wind.
Throw the Frisbee into the air, run and catch. Increase the distance of the throw.

Throw the Frisbee through a hoop held by a partner.

TEACHING HINTS:

Encourage catching with left and right hands.

Since a Frisbee is somewhat different from the other implements that students throw, devote time to teaching form and style in throwing and catching. Avoid drills that reward speed in throwing and catching.

Frisbee Three Passes

INSTRUCTIONS:

The object of the game is for one team to make three consecutive passes to three different players without losing control of the frisbee. This scores 1 point. The defense may play the frisbee only and may not make personal contact with opposing players. No player can take more than three steps when in possession of the frisbee or it is a turnover to the other team.

TEACHING HINTS:

Place students in teams of 5.

Assign teams to play each other and an area they are to remain in during play.
