Rational:
Basketball is one of the biggest sports in the school environment. I
believe there are two big reasons for this. First it is a sport that can be
played at a variety of different skill levels so those students who are
not as gifted in the sport can still play. Second there are a large
number of variations to the sport that makes it applicable to so many
students. This makes it one of the more anticipated units in PE by the
students. Although some teachers see it as the sport that causes the
most fights/drama in class and are hesitant to use it as a full unit.
Although, if all students are taught towards mastery of the sport and
gain the fundamental skills that are involved, students will be more
skilled and knowledgeable making them less likely to become
frustrated and cause the issues so many teachers face. Basketball is
also a great sport for PE and it reaches so many aspects of the
curriculum. Teamwork, fine motor control, gross motor control,
locomotor skills and non-locomotor skills are all used in this unit. By
developing these motor skills, body control, and teamwork basketball
is a very effective PE unit.
