Context of Lesson
This lesson is the third day of a five-day unit of introducing winter outdoor activities and
formal sports. This lesson is the second and final day of an introduction to the formal sport of
curling. The class will be walking across the street to the local curling club to use their equipment
and facility. Students are required to bring clean indoor shoes and dress for the appropriate indoor
temperature. Classes are 65 minutes in length, this class will be 55 minutes of instruction to allow
time for cleaning up the facility and walking to and from the school. The first day of curling
instruction covered the rules, flow of game play, and the roles of each position. Students were given
the opportunity to practice the introductory skills of throwing rocks and sweeping along with sheet.

skills. In this class students, will have the opportunity to review and practice the skills learned in the
previous class and apply their skills to a game situation. The purpose of this class is to further
develop the skills taught the previous class and gain awareness to the tactical placement of rocks
within game play. Students will play multiple ends for the duration of class, ensuring that all students
have an opportunity to participate in multiple positions. The next class in the unit involves students
skating on an indoor or outdoor hockey rink. The exposure to moving on ice surfaces transfers from
this class to the next days class. There are three students in this class that have a mental disability.

comfort and appropriate competition. Depending on the number of students in the class I would try
to leave one sheet of ice open for students with a disability, injury or individuals who are more
