NASPE Standard 3: Planning and Implementation

3. Planning and Implementation:                

Physical education teacher candidates plan and implement developmentally appropriate learning experiences aligned with local, state, and national standards to address the diverse needs of all students.

The above documents are lesson plans that were created at my second student teaching site, during Spring 2012. Within each document, you will find all lessons for that particular unit on one document. The following units are: Cross Country, Rock Wall, and Softball.

Creating lesson plans during student teaching was a great opportunity. It was very difficult initially to create lessons for such a short period of time (45 minutes, and that's without taking in account of change time). As time continued, i had learned to flow through the lessons with more easy, and focus on what the key point was for each lesson.

The above documents are lesson plans that were created at my first student teaching site, during Spring 2012. Within the Jump Rope and Striking folders you will be directed straight to the lesson plans. Within the Wellness folder, you will be directed to grade level folders, which ultimatly lead to the lesson plans themselves.

Creating lesson plans during student teaching was a great opportunity. It forced me to focus on the developmental steps of skills and concepts for the children, in order to have an optimal learning environment.
