I.

Title: Move & Pivot, Circuit Training, Basketball Skills, and Dribble-Rama Lesson plan
(Pangrazi & Beighle, 2013).
II. Environmental Analysis:
a. Students prior knowledge of activities: This is a compiled four-part lesson that
has components from previous lessons presented and earlier in the semester.
There is no additional time required to introduce any portion of the lesson and its
components.
b. Limiting Factors:
i. There are no more than 20 second graders in one class period.
ii. The children are organized via their home classroom.
iii.
Physical Education classes will be held indoors inside the main gym.
iv. No additional equipment is necessary.
c. Rationale for selection:
i. The introduction of Move & Pivot will encourage students to listen and
ii.
iii.

execute proper movements per instructors directions.

The Circuit Training will encourage mobility and spatial awareness.
Basketball is a piece of equipment that can be used individually and/or a
partner without much movement required. The activity is designed to

iv.

promote eye & hand coordination.

The game Dribble-Rama will encourage mobility and spatial awareness.

IV. Lesson Plan:

a. Objective: By the end of the lesson students will be able to learn:
i.

Execute the chest pass, bounce pass, overhead pass, how to receive a
pass, offense & defense, rebound, jump shots, and lay-ups.
(Psychomotor)

ii.

Understand the differences of moving and pivoting in different degree

angles. (Cognitive)

iii.

The benefits of eye & hand coordination, use of tactile senses, and

individual and teamwork benefits. (Affective)

b. Pretest: No pretest necessary, because Destiny and Austin have already been
assessed on the TGMD test and scored within the Superior range. Willie has high
function in upper extremities.
c. Equipment:

i. (Fitness Portion) Fitness cones and signs will be placed alongside the
outside perimeter of the class.
ii. Music.
iii. (Lesson portion) Basketballs will be placed inside Hulu-hoops around the
perimeter of the classroom.
V. Introduction: Upon entrance of the gym, students will execute a loco motor movement.
Willie will be the exception and move in the same direction as the others in his wheelchair
throughout the gym.
i.

Intro: Move & Pivot (p. 24)

1. Controlled jog while spaced out from others throughout the floor.
2. Pivot on right or left foot using different degrees such as 90, 180,
or 360 on the teachers signal.

ii.

Fitness: Circuit Training (p. 38).

1. Fitness signs that promote agility, cardio-respiratory endurance,
upper body strength, abdominal strength, and balance.

iii.

Lesson: Basketball Skills (pp. 49-50).

1. Work on chest pass, bounce pass, overhead pass, how to receive a
pass, offense & defense, rebound, jump shots, and lay-ups.
2. Individual skills and partner skills.

iv.

Game: Dribble-Rama (p. 154).

1. Individuals will dribble and try to knock out other peoples balls
and also prevent others from knocking their balls out of hands too.

VI. Modification:
a. Intro: Willie can pivot in his wheelchair; he has to be cognizant about his spacing
before he executes a pivot, he must look around him before execution. He may be
limited to 45-90 degree pivots until teacher is comfortable with increased degrees
of turns.
b. Fitness: Willie will control his space on the perimeter of the group, so he is not a
potential harm to others within close proximity when students are required to
freeze in place. He will execute various exercises that closely mimic the original

ones. For the lower body exercises, he will choose his own exercise he is
comfortable with.
c. Lesson: No modification needed.
d. Game: All students who are in close proximity to Willie and his wheelchair, must
have a good buffer of space between them.
e. Modifications for Destiny and Austin: Only modifications that are necessary for
Destiny and Austin are repeat instructions or demonstrations if they need it.
VII. Modification Rationale:
a. Intro: Without consciously knowing Willies own space, he may hit another
student when pivoting, and thats why its paramount that he looks before he
moves.
b. Fitness: No modifications for Willie, because he can have alternatives for any
lower body exercises.
c. Lesson: No modifications are required, because Willie can execute many
movements from his chair. During the basketball portion, he can do all the same
movements without the need to propel into the air.
d. Game: All students must be aware of Willies presence while they dribble their
own balls. Some padding on hard corners of Willies chair is an option in closer
quarters, because a lot of movement in tight quarters may result in some bumping
with the wheelchair.
e. Destiny and Austin: Giving extra instructions or demonstrations provide a better
chance that they both understand the concepts and the objectives of what the P.E.
teacher is asking.
