Health-Related Fitness (HRF) Component & Activities that Support Learning of HRF: Muscle Endurance: Learning the proper techniques and skills for a 90 degree push-up and a curl-up will require many repetitions to get the muscles conditioned to have the techniques under muscle memory. (4 minutes): Activity Stations Description and Management: When the students come in I will have the students P.E. squads go to six stations that consist of wall jumpers, wall sits, jumping-jacks, mountain climbers, squats, and toe touches. (2 minute) Set Induction: Since this is my first time teaching in the school I will introduce myself to the students. After I introduce myself I will ask the students of their prior knowledge of the FITNESSGRAM and the activities associated with it. I will then explain to them the importance of proper technique in a 90-degree push-up and a curl-up. (8 minutes) Activity 1: Standing Push-up Description and Management: In an open space students will practice 90-degree push-ups against the wall. Task Development: Students will stand straight up and practice using proper technique for the back and arms. Extensions (E); Movement of arms to bend to a 90- degree angle. Form while participating, good posture and stance, straight knees, flat back Technique while going down and pushing up. Refinements (R): Keep feet flat Keep a straight knees Keep a straight back

 Use both hands, palms and fingers Keep a straight neck Bend arms to a 90-degree angle Applications (A): Can you do 10 straight with proper technique? Can you hold each push-up for two seconds? (12 minutes) Activity 2: 90-degree Push-ups Description and management: In an open space students will practice 90-degree push-ups. Task Development: Students will start out in the proper position for a push-up. They will then complete a series of push-ups Extensions (E): Movement of arms to bend to a 90- degree angle. Form while participating, good posture and stance, straight knees, flat back Technique while going down and pushing up. Refinements (R): Keep feet flat Keep a straight knees Keep a straight back Use both hands, palms and fingers Keep a straight neck Bend arms to a 90-degree angle Applications (A): How many push-ups can you complete consecutively? Can you clap when you push up? Can you do a one-handed push-up? (10 minutes) Activity 3: Curl-ups Description and Management: In an open space students will practice curl-ups. The students will learn the proper technique and distance for curl-ups. Task Development: Students will start by lying on the ground with their knees bent. They will then attempt to complete a series of curl-ups with proper technique. Extensions (E): Form while attempting curl up- use of upper spine Technique of the curl-up - not just lifting the head Movement of the upper spine. Refinements (R): Keep feet flat Keep bent knees Keep a straight back, when lying on ground Keep arms and palms on the ground Keep a straight neck Curl up with the upper spine.

Applications (A): How many curl-ups can you complete consecutively? Can you keep proper technique the whole time? (1-2 minutes) Closure: I will ask the students what they have learned from the lesson. I will inform them about the FITNESSGRAM test. I will thank the students for their participation and get them into their class line to take them to their next class. IF PACER TEST OCCURS Exclude activity 1 and 3 and make Activity 2 the main activity. (4 Minutes) Instant Activity: Builders and Bulldozers: Split the students into two teams with an equal number of students on each team. One team will try to knock over as many cones as possible, while the other team will try to pick up as many cones as possible. Remind the students to move safely and to not run into each other during the instant activity. When the teacher says go, the game will begin and the students will attempt to either knock over or pick up as many cones as possible during the 30-second time trial. The game will be repeated multiple times, with the teams changing each time. Activity for Students not doing PACER: Passing Students that are not taking the test need some activity to participate in. To keep the children from wearing themselves out I will either have a word search or have them do some sort of group passing with a soccer ball. To get the muscle loose, keep the children active and occupied. (Time after PACER Test) Activity 2: Space Invaders Description and Management: In the open gym space the students will be split into four equal teams. Each team will start out with the same number of items in their hula-hoops. Students will go to other teams hoops and obtain one item. They will then bring it back to their hoop. The team with the most items in their hoop at the end of time will win. Task Development: Students will participate in three separate games. The games will cover locomotor movements such as running, skipping, and galloping. Extensions (E): Movement of body in all movements Form while in locomotor skill Technique for each motion Refinements (R):

 Keep knees bent Swing Arms Keep eyes up Watch for other students Pick up with a strong hand Applications (A): How many items can you get in each game? Can you take fewer strides towards a hoop? Can you get 10 items in a game?
