will be divided into 2-4 groups and lined up at
one of the boundaries. A frog will be chosen
and will not have a polyspot. The rest of the
students in each group are the tadpoles, who
will each have a polyspot. The object is to get
all the frogs in each group across the

step on. As the frog jumps from 1 lily pad to
the next, the tadpoles must quickly pick up
the used lily pads and continue to place them
in front of their frog, building a path across
the pond. When the frog reaches the other
side of the pond, the game begins again with
a new frog.

2 min.

Set Induction:
Today is the last day of Tiger Pride.
Todays activities will include activities we
learned throughout the semester. I have 4
stations set up that include basketball,
frisbee, badminton, and football.


Purpose:
The purpose of this station lesson is so
that students have an opportunity to
refine the skills they have learned from
each sport during the semester.

Start/Stop Signals:

Go to start
Freeze to put
equipment down and
stop what theyre
doing.

Grouping Strategies:
I will number
students off 1-4. 1s
will start at the
basketball station. 2s
will start at the
badminton station,
3s will start at frisbee
station, and 4s will
start at the football
station.

1 min.

Transition
After the instant activity, I will have the
students on homebase and let them
choose their own partner for the next
activity.

the half-court line. The first student in line

will dribble the basketball through cones

towards the basket and go up for a lay-up.

Another student standing near the basket

will rebound the shot and pass it to the

next person in line. The rebounder will get

in line and the shooter will be the new

rebounder. To dribble, students must use

their wrist and fingertips to push and pull

the basketball. To pass, students are to

use the 3 passes they learned during the

basketball unit: bounce pass, chest pass,

and overhead pass. Shooting a basketball

follows the acronym BEEF ball, eyes,

elbows, and follow through.

Badminton: There will be 5 polyspots

evenly spaced around a hula-hoop. One

student per polyspot. 3 birdies will be

next to a polyspot. Students are to strike

the birdies with the racquets into the

hula-hoop. To challenge themselves,

students can take a step back if they make

it inside the hula-hoop and step forward if

they miss it. For holding the racquet, use

the shake hands grip. To strike the birdie,

1) pinch birdie, 2) face sideways toward

target, 3) eyes on birdie, 4) pull back, and

5) follow through.

Frisbee: Students are to throw the frisbee

to another person within their group. Or

they can get form a circle and throw the

frisbee to each other. To grip the frisbee,

students are to place the thumb on top

review of all the skills learned
during the entire semester.

and the other four fingers below.
Football: 2-3 flat cones with footballs on
them will be setup. Students will line up a
few feet back. The first student in line will
approach the football, take 3 steps back,
and 2 steps to the opposite side. Then the
student will run towards the football and
kick the football the best they can.

Demonstration Plan:
I will walk through each station explaining
what to do. Students will follow me as I
demonstrate the skills at each station.

Questions to Check Understanding
Which way do you rotate stations? Clock-
wise.
Who can tell me the cues for punting a
football? 1) stand behind football, 2) 3
steps back, 2 steps forward, 3) approach,
4) laces


Adaptations
Regressions
Basketball: dribble without cones
Badminton: move in closer
Frisbee: move in closer
Football: punt instead of placekicking

Progression:
Basketball: shoot from a further distance
Badminton: move back further
Frisbee: move in closer or frisbee golf
Football: placekick towards a target

CLOSURE:
Review:
I hope everyone enjoyed the last day of
Tiger Pride. I saw a lot of improvement
today when everyone practiced at the
stations. I just want to do a little review
before were all finished here. What was
the most difficult skill this semester?
What made it difficult? Can you tell me
the cues for that skill? Show me how to
perform that skill.
