Lesson 10

Learning Intention

To assess and refine a movement sequence.

Lesson Information

Shot Put

Steps:

  • You have two choices here:
  • Make your own shot put using a balloon and fill with dry rice or floor using a kitchen funnel or
  • Use a tennis ball or small ball that is similar to the size of a shot put.
  • Mark a starting spot where you will commence your throw from.
  • Technique:

Split stance – leg forward matches the throwing arm e.g. right foot forward, throwing right arm, clean palm, right angle elbow, shot put in the neck, chin, knee and foot in line, transfer weight from front to back, rotate the hips, high five the sky on release of the shot.

  • When holding the shot properly it should be against your neck with your thumb pointing down and your elbow as high as you can lift it.
  • Measure how far you throw (m) and record your best throw in three attempts.

Group/Family Goal: To give and receive feedback between members of your group or family to help each of you in your ability to perform the standing shot put.

  1. Look at the pictures below and think what the Technical Points in each phase would be for 1 minute.
  2. Next share your ideas if you are working with a friend or family member, taking it in turns to give and discuss ideas. Come to a common agreement and note the suggested Technical Points below.
  3. Now perform the standing shot put.
  4. After a few practices, reflect on whether you need to change the suggested Technical Points?

Extension (Challenge):

  • Try the half/full turn (watch the video for instructions)

Reflection

  • Reflect and analyse your performance.
  • What could you do with your body to throw further?
  • What would be the best angle to release the shot for maximum distance?

Lesson Information

Skipping endurance

Equipment

  • Skipping rope
  • Music

Lesson:

Steps:

  • Building some muscular and cardiovascular endurance will help us to perform our skipping routine. Try to practise 5 minutes of skipping every day to get greater improvements in your fitness.
  • Practise skipping to reach 10, 25, 50 or 100 (or more!) skips without stopping.
  • Practise single bounce, double bounce or double unders to make the practice more challenging and to get your heart rate up.
  • Play a metronome video to get beats at different sounds and skip to the beat. See if you can jump for 1 min without stopping to the slow, medium and then fast tempo and count the number of jumps reached.
  • Pyramid skipping – aim is to make it to the end of the pyramid without making an error. (eg: 10 – 20 – 30 – 40 – 50 – 40 – 30 – 20 – 10 – after you complete the first 10 skips, then have 20 seconds break, then complete 20 skips etc).
  • When you get to the end of your pyramid without stopping, add 5 skips to each level until you get to BOSS level (50 – 100 – 150 – 200 – 150 – 100 – 50)

Modifications:

Students work at own level and pace.

Reflection

  • Which muscles do you feel working when you skip as long as you can?
  • What are some stretches for the muscles you worked whilst skipping?
  • How does your body feel when you skip after practising for a week compared with your first skipping practice?
