1. Title of the Unit – Throwing and catching
2. Student characteristics and the implications of these characteristics for the unit2.1 Grade level / previous experience
K-5th graders Previous experience of throwing and catching skills for K-5 as well as previous
football experience for grades 4 and 5. Previous experience with the other physical education teacher with this unit
before coming to my class.
2.2 Class size / type of groupings anticipated
Class size will vary from 20-30 students Each grade has a wide variety of skill level and physical abilities so it is important to
adapt the lesson to this. Both individual skill practices will be done as well as a lot of partner work. Students will either be randomly assigned to different partners and groups when
necessary or they will be allowed to pick them, depending on the activity of the day. Students must show good sportsmanship to peers and teammates. All students will be encouraged to do their best every day. Students who understand the skills quicker will be asked to help those who need it.
2.3 Level of development - physical, social, emotional, and intellectual2.31 Physical A full range of not physically developed students to those in 5th grade whose bodies are
starting to become physically developed at this time will make everyone vary in weight, height as well as upper body and lower body strength.
Emphasis will be placed on the success of the student’s football skills at grades 3-5. Emphasis will be placed on the improvement of the students throwing and catching skills at
grades K-5. Extra help will be provided to lower skilled students from both the peers who they are
working with and the teacher. Importance of regular physical fitness will be addressed regularly throughout the unit.
2.32 Social Students are likely to partner with their best friends, and when they can pick groups this
is acceptable. However, when I pick the groups the students must work cooperatively with each other and no put downs will be tolerated.
Interact with the teacher and peers in a way that is helpful and conducive to learning. Respect the teacher and peers by following the 3 B’s (be respectful, be safe, be
responsible) during the lessons. Main focus is on personal improvement. Students must respond appropriately to internal and external feedback.
1
2.33 Emotional Students can suffer from low self-esteem so it is important to not have any put downs in
the class and encourage full participation. Some behavior problems may occur during this unit from either a lack of interest in the
unit or due to boredom where the students who are already familiar with football may reach out for attention.
Higher skilled students may benefit from helping lower skilled students. All students will be asked to serve as role models for their peers by staying positive,
doing their best, and by showing good sportsmanship.
2.34 Intellectual To get all students to be successful each learning strategy will be incorporated into the
unit, auditory, verbal, visual, and kinesthetic. There may be language challenges for those in ELL, and peers may need to help with
language assistance. Modeling everything is a good way to try to minimize the language barriers.
3. Facilities and equipment3.1 Space required (indoor / outdoor)

2 deck of cards Polyspots 2 big dice
4. Safety considerations - {listing in vertical fashion} Previously established class safety rules Following the 3 B’s Always looking before throwing Always aiming before throwing Saying the person’s name before throwing to them in a catching activity. No jumping over the buckets or cones on the floor. During drills, maintain a proper distance from the person next to you. When retrieving the balls, be aware of others who may be throwing them. Do not throw the ball as hard as possible Do not throw the ball at someone Do not throw the ball across the room-unless directed to do so.
5. Subject matter content
5.1 Psychomotor skills in order of progression
K- Bounce catch, underhand throw, overhand throw1 & 2- underhand throw, overhand throw, and catching3- underhand throw, overhand throw, catching used in game like situations4 & 5- brief review of underhand and overhand throw as well as catching. Play game like situations as well as learning how to use a football properly and play football lead up games.
5.2 Cognitive - knowledge, rules, strategy5.21 Rules
One bounce and catch rule when throwing with the wall. Ball must be in the air when playing box ball. If anyone throws a ball at someone on purpose (especially head shots) they will be
sitting out the rest of class. No jumping over the cones or bins on the floor. Must call their parents name before throwing the ball to them if they are playing catch. Must always look with their eyes. When I say freeze, they freeze. Always accept who their partners are. No negativity will be tolerated; must show good sportsmanship and respect.
5.22 Throwing and catching skills Bounce catch
Lightly bounce the ball right out in front of feet.

9.46 This is one of four units during the quarter. There will be 16 units total. Each unit carries a weight of 1/16 and will all be added together at the end of the year for final grades.
10. Motivation techniques10.1 Intrinsic
Starting with doing individual practices of throwing and catching will result in students becoming more comfortable with the unit. There will be a variety of different throwing balls (some weighing more, some being bigger, ext.) that will make for the individualized instruction for each individual to foster their success as well as challenges. For the older students I will be using them as examples which will boost their intrinsic motivation if they already have previous experience with throwing and catching. Letting the students play in a scattered formation will result in no pressure being put on the students; as well as letting them play by their friends. Starting with each activity at a close distance and gradually moving future away will also foster the student’s intrinsic motivation.
10.2 Extrinsic.
Several different activities will be set up to provide competition at an individual level as well as on a team level (for the older kids 3rd-5th graders). Providing students with new activities each day will lead to extrinsic motivation to want to come and succeed in the class and try new activities they may have not yet experienced yet. Positive pinpointing
16
students who are doing the skill correctly and having them show the class will foster extrinsic motivation for other students to want to showcase their talents as well.
