Introduction/ Warm up Evaluation/Assessment

Introduction: Rubrics:
Intro to the class
- Daily participation
Attendance - Fair play
- Social cooperation
Grading expectations - Mark out of 10

Plans for next week- wanting to stay outside cause the nice weather

Warm up:

Dynamics as normal, and students will gather around the whiteboard as I go

over the order of the holes.

Learning Activities/Teaching Strategies

Activity:

- There will be 6 frisbee golf baskets

- 3 on one side of the school, 3 on the other.
- Cones will mark the starting points
- Students will get a scorecard, and pair up. When they have a pair,
they will play another pair at the specific hole
- Essentially, 2v2 at each hole- each pair will need a scorecard
- Extra people can be added to make a team of 3 if needed
- We will go over the map and the basket rotation at the whiteboard,
and each group will be placed at a starting basket
- Teams will have to make a name, and record their score
- Once I get the team names that I find appealing, I will tell them
where they are starting in the rotation
- Everyone will get their frisbees when they leave the door
- At the end of class I am looking for completed scorecards from each
team
- Meet at shed at class end

Teaching strategies:

- All students must wear proper attire and footwear.

- Throwing
- Ensure the field is clear of debris or hazards.
- When you are switching fields, walk on sidewalk in front of school- so
I can see you switch
 - What to do when a frisbee goes “out of bounds”- on the road- grab
it, and run it back inside the track- this will count as a 2-throw penalty
- What to do if a frisbee goes in front of another group- stop throwing,
and let the team collect the frisbee
- (Frisbee) golf etiquette- if a group is slow in front of you, slow down-
it's not a race- give the other group some space
- Proper hole rotations, where to walk, and where I have to watch
(sightlines)
- Work with a partner and play where the frisbee lands- no cheating-
partner has a good putter, and you have a good driver- use that as
your strategy to win.
- Pick up the cones you're nearest to when the whistle blows to end
class
- All frisbees back in the box when done- and cannot leave until I have
received everyone's scorecard

Closure/ Cool down:

- Bring students together at the end to wrap up

- Closing remarks- great work- great scores- great throwing techniques
- I need the frisbees back in the box- I will check on the way in
- I need to collect all scorecards- with names

Equipment Safety

- Discs- we have 15 total sets
- Pylons to mark starting location
- 3 baskets from shed
- Scorecards (8 max)
- All students must wear proper attire and
footwear.
- Keep head up
- Ensure the field is clear of debris or hazards.
- Be aware of people and surroundings

Reflection

This lesson worked so smoothly because I was prepared in advance. I had golf score cards printed out,
I had previously set up the baskets and cones for the course, and I was able to break things down and
describe them to the students so they were clear on what they needed to accomplish.
