Health-Related Fitness (HRF) Component & Activities that Support Learning of HRF: Muscle Endurance: Learning basic skills of speed-a-way will require many repetitions to get the muscles conditioned to have the skills under muscle memory. Students are going to perform an array of different tasks while participating to complete a common objective. The students will be running up and down the court as defensive and offensive players (1-2 minutes) Set Induction: Since this is my first time to the school I will introduce myself to the students. After I introduce myself I will ask the students of their prior knowledge of speed-a-way. I will explain that they will be going over the basic skills of speed-a-way. (10 minutes) Activity 1: Dribbling Description and Management: In an open space students will practice dribbling Task Development: Students will start by dribbling the ball with their feet. After the students are comfortable with feet dribbling, they will move on to air dribbling. Extensions (E); Movement while dribbling. Form while dribbling, good posture and stance, bent knees, controlled speed. Technique while dribbling, inside of the foot, keep ball close. Refinements (R): Use the inside of the foot Keep the ball close Use soft touches Use both hands, air dribbling Know where the ball is going to go. Applications (A): Can you dribble with your non-dominant foot? How many steps can you take before catching the ball?

How many times can you air dribble without letting the ball hit the ground?

(10 minutes)Activity 2: Passing Description and management: In an open space students will practice the different passing styles. Task Development: Students will start out with the basic foot, ground, passing. Once the students are comfortable with ground passing they will move onto hand, air, passing.

Extensions (E); Form while using feet to get the ball into the hands. Technique for getting the ball into the hands. Movement to catch the ball when coming from the feet. Refinements (R): Keep a good stance. Be balanced. Keep control over the ball. Keep control over yourself Have hands ready to receive the ball. Applications (A): How many conversions can you complete in a row? How many different conversions can you complete? (9 minutes) Activity 4: Lead-up game Description and Management: In an open space students will play a small game of speed-away using the basic skills that they have learned in the lesson.

Task Development: I will start by explaining how scoring works and how the kick off takes place to start the game. Students will then participate in a small game. Extensions (E): Form while passing, receiving, and dribbling Technique while making and receiving a pass, also while dribbling. Movement to create and receive a better pass.
