Sports Lesson Planning

Lesson Plan 1

Warm Up

The short warm up task will involve running around in a confined space

- a circle. The children will run round in a specific direction until

something is shouted (For example, a number). Numbers can also be

assigned to certain other body movements, for instance, if I shouted

"Three!" they would have to jump. The warm up will last about five

minutes, so as not to tire them out.

Skills and Practice

For a practice/skills based activity, an obstacle course would be set

up for them to complete (see diagram) while dribbling a football. They

will each get a turn at this, and hopefully, it will prove to be fun

as well as good practice. This activity will last about 5 - 10

minutes.

The Game

After the warm up and practise sessions, the students will get to play

a competitive game. They will be split into two teams - one team

wearing a certain colour (e.g. red bibs). They will play on a standard

(ish) football pitch layout - incorporating two goals etc. (no

specific surface required) Aim of the game: To score in the opponent's

goal. The match will have two intermissions (halves) and a five minute

break in between halves. Half length: 15 minutes.

Text Box: Anything could be used as a goal – from a mat to proper goalposts.

Cool Down

After the match, the children will take part in a 'cool down'

activity, which would be a short jog around the playground or defined

area.
