ACTIONS—Described prior to observation

 Goals and Objectives-

Students will be able to understand and discuss basic elements of fitness, aerobic fitness, muscular fitness and flexibility.

Students will be able to use these components to design a basic fitness program using concepts of exercise duration, intensity and frequency.

Students will get introductory experience in advanced fitness/sport conditioning concepts.

Students will be able to define aerobic and muscular fitness.

 Connections-

Kentucky Learner Goals:

Practical Living

2.31 Students demonstrate skills and self-responsibility in understanding, achieving, and maintaining physical wellness. 

 By designing individual workout program, students will experience personal responsibility for wellness by choosing activities they can and choose to do.  By using frequency, duration and intensity, students will demonstrate their understanding of basic fitness concepts.

2.32 Students demonstrate positive strategies for achieving and maintaining mental and emotional wellness.  

Through design of exercise program and by experiencing various exercise modalities, it is hoped students develop a positive attitude toward exercise.  Students will learn about the link between physical wellness and mental wellness  thereby adopt positive strategies toward mental emotional wellness.

2.33 Students demonstrate the ability to assess and access health systems, services and resources available in their community which maintain and promote healthy living for its citizens. 

Through discussion, guest speaker and a resource list, students will have readily available information regarding community resources available for maintaining physical and mental wellness.

2.35 Students demonstrate knowledge, skills,and values that have lifetime implications for involvement in physical activity. 

Through the unit and through developing individual workout plans, Students will be expected to demonstrate knowledge of lifetime skills necessary to wellness and also how to implement these skills into daily living.

 

Context-

The fitness unit is an integral part of the physical education department’s goal of developing interest in lifelong fitness.  This unit also directly serves the goal of providing students with the knowledge and skills to take responsibility for their own physical fitness.  Each of the six lessons in this unit are designed to address certain aspects of fitness in order to: provide students with a better understanding of fitness concepts; assess their position on a fitness spectrum and develop a plan for meeting their fitness goals; and educate students about resources available to them in pursuing their fitness goals.  By teaching fitness, it is believed that students will better be able to control their wellness and thereby be more productive citizens. 

 Resources-

Fitness Pre-test

Heart Rate Monitors

Internet sites that provide standards and assessment tools.

Guidelines for Healthy Aerobic Activity   (ACSM Link)

Calculating Your Exercise Heart Rate Range  (Heart Rate Calculation Link)

 Procedures-

There are no students with physical disabilities in this class.  For those less fit or less physically capable, all activities are designed to allow for maximum participation without regard to ability or fitness level.  While some activities (the mile walk/jog and the pacer) will point out discrepancies in fitness and athleticism between students, part of this goal is for students to recognize their place on the fitness spectrum and put it in proper perspective relative to their fitness goals. 

Lesson: 1:  50 minutes

Students change:  3-5 minutes

Daily warm-up:  5-8 minute jog

Discussion:  Introduce unit.  8-10 minutes

Fitness can and SHOULD BE ENJOYABLE AND/OR FUN.  Make statement that if fitness is not enjoyable it is the individual’s responsibility.

Students will design workout program that must meet the criteria listed in the rubric.  Discuss rubric.  Assign due date as last day of unit.  Advise not to start on this until second week as they won’t have all information needed.

Preview and prime unit.  Some will be fitness through fun and games; some will be fitness through blood, sweat and tears.

Give Pre-test on fitness fundamentals.

Active Game:  20-25 minutes. 

Roller tag, 2:00 minute rounds, checking heart rate manually between rounds.   4 Rounds all against all.  Make three teams, play rest of rounds against each other.  When tagged, go to “gym” and do:  4 push ups; 10 crunches; or 6 jumping jacks.  If student is unable to participate, have them be the “personal trainer” who signs off on proper form in gym before students can return to game.  In team version, team with least visits to the trainer wins because they workout the best on their own. 

Lesson 2:  50 minutes

Change:  3-5 minutes

Warm-up:  2-3 minute jog        

Discuss basic elements of fitness:  5-6 minutes

Cardiovascular fitness- general meaning and modalities

Muscular fitness- general meaning and modalities

Flexibility- general meaning and modalities

Activity:  30 minutes

2- 1 miles on the clock.  1 walk, jog or run; 1 jog or run.  Take heart rate after  each mile.  Those who finish first stretch and may do push ups or sit ups.  Those who run both are looking for same times or second one faster than first.  Those who choose to walk must do so fast.

Hand out on fitness info.  Keep in folder.  Study for post test on fitness.

Lesson 3:  50 minutes

Change:  3-5 minutes, PUT ON HEART RATE MONITORS

Warm-up:  Jump rope 5-8 minutes

Discuss fitness levels and goals:  4-6 minutes

                        High fitness levels not needed for health

                        High fitness  only for those who want it and/or need it. i.e. athletes.

                        How much fitness depends on individual goals.

Fitness depends on workout duration, intensity, and frequency.  Define each. 

Activity:   20 minutes.

Poisen Penguins and Variations:  ON WHISTLE: note heart rate, LISTEN FOR EXERICE (alternate between sets of push ups and crunches) record heart rate after poison penguins, and after exercises).

Activity:  5-7 minutes:

Pull ups w/ spotters if needed or flexed arm hang. 

Homework:  Visit ACSM site and calculate MHR and 5% increments. 

Lesson 4:  50 minutes

Change:  3-5 minutes

Warm up: Partner tag 5-8 minutes

Discuss fitness assessments and applications:  3-5 minutes.

Activity:  Pacer test followed by class stretch.  20 minutes.

Take any questions regarding workout design project.

REMIND STUDENTS NOT TO CHANGE NEXT CLASS FOR LECTURE:

 Student Assessment-

Students’ workout homework will be assessed according to rubric found in assessment link on web page.

Students will also be evaluated on how they assess Pacer score and describe ways to allow fitness to decline, maintain fitness, or improve fitness according to rubric found in assessment link.

Heart rate recordings will also be assessed. 

   

REFINEMENT- Prepared after the lesson and the post observation conference.

 

IMPACT—Prepared after the lesson and post-observation conference
