They will also understand that the various exercises target different muscles within their body. Students will be familiar with different exercises that target all areas of the body, including their biceps, triceps, Pectoralis major, hamstrings, quadriceps, gluteus Maximus, calf and abdominal muscles. Content Specific Terms: Process Terms: Spotter, feet placement, bend at the knees, Knees in line with toes, Tight Abdominal Muscles, Triceps, Gluteus Maximus, Quadriceps, Biceps, core Hamstring, Pectoralis Major, Calf Muscle Prior Learning/Prior Thinking Prior to this lesson, students have experience performing some of these exercises in previous warm-ups and labs implemented earlier within this fitness unit.

ASSESSMENT BEFORE THE LESSON Pre-assessment: From their 7 grade fitness unit and health class, students should know the location of the muscles being used throughout this lesson. They have also been introduced to some of the exercises in various warm-ups and labs incorporated in previous lessons of this fitness unit.

LESSON PLAN OBJECTIVES AND LIFE SKILLS

Skill Development 1. Basic Skill Instruction Students will use the task cards and pictures at each station in order to learn about different exercises that can be performed with the various equipment at each station. 2. Application of Skills Students will apply the learned technique and safety procedures to each exercise by performing a variety of different exercises with a variety of different equipment. 3. 4. Fitness Benefits Skill Related Fitness Health Related Fitness Life Skills 5. Effort 6. Goal Setting Students will set goals in the number of sets and reps they can complete for a each given exercise. 7. Communication Students will communicate with each other when performing different exercises by using the checklists to make sure the exercises are being performed correctly and safely.

Introduction Total time: Upon entering the gym, students will get a pedometer and set it to zero Lesson Objective(s): Students will be introduced to different muscles, as well as exercises that target those muscles Planned Transitions: Students will be split into two groups: Group One Fitness Room (see lesson plan four) Group Two Multi-Purpose Room (continue with this lesson plan)

Formations / Cues

Assessment

Students should report to their squad lines upon entering class

Students will be assessed through their pedometer at the end of the class period

Hamstrings, Gluteus Maximus, Quadriceps, Calf Muscles, Abdominal Muscles, Pectoralis Major, Triceps and Biceps

Students will be assessed by the completion of their muscle and exercise guidance t the end of today, as well as next class period Assessment Students will be assessed through observation throughout the main activity of this lesson: Are they following all safety procedures? Are they staying on task/not messing around? Are they using proper form and technique for each exercise? Students will also be completing their

Main Activities Total time:

Students will already be in the multi-purpose room. They Will be asked to gather around in a tight bunch Students will review all safety procedures A brief overview of all 20 exercises will take place. Planned Transition: Students will cool down by walking a lap around the multipurpose room

Formations / Cues
Proper form and technique is vital Physical space Appropriate number of repetitions At each station, students will be introduced to the proper form and technique

muscular/exercise worksheets throughout this time period.

Cool-down Total time: 1 minute

Formations / Assessment Strategy

Turn in pedometers and muscle/exercise worksheets: Students will write their pedometer number on their muscle/exercise worksheets to receive a Write in the pedometer number on worksheet grade for their activity level today. before turning in Remind students to bring a pencil to the next Class period Assessments: Throughout this lesson, students will be assessed throughout a variety of ways. Students will be assessed through their pedometer at the end of the lesson. Their overall goal is to see how many steps they can get throughout the entire fitness unit Students will be assessed through observation in the fitness room. Are they following safety protocols? Are they staying on task? Are they performing an appropriate number of reps? Are they using proper form and technique for each exercise? Students will be assessed by their completion of the muscle/exercise worksheet. This will show me that they understand what exercises target what muscles. This is important because they will be tested on this information at the end of the unit. Equipment needs Pedometers, Writing Utensils, Muscle/Exercise Worksheet, NonWeight Task Cards, Music, Towel, chairs, ledges (bleachers pulled out would work), ab mats, timer for plank station. Safety Considerations Physical space around individual performing each exercise Using the right form and technique when performing each exercise Using the appropriate number of reps when performing each exercise

Differentiated Instruction Students will have task cards located at each fitness station in the multi-purpose room. The card will provide them with information regarding proper form and safety concerns. There are also pictures that physically allow them to see what their body should look like throughout the exercise. Classroom Management/Democratic Practices Students have been split up into two groups to insure that students will have plenty of opportunities to perform all exercises in the multipurpose room. The other group is using the day four lesson plan and will have plenty of time to perform those exercises in the fitness room.
