Previous Lesson Focused on: Ultimate Frisbee

Lesson Focus:  Team Handball- Advancing towards the goal   Sub Focus: Give and go with target player

 

Lesson Objectives:

 

1. The students will advance the ball forward toward the goal by passing and receiving without dropping the ball in a 3v3 setting. (P1) (NASPE 1)

 

2. The students will exhibit socially acceptable behavior and demonstrate positive examples of fair play by settling disagreements quickly by utilizing “rock, paper, scissors” during game play. (A1) (NASPE 5)

 

3. The students will identify key components of advancing toward the goal in the receiving aspect (jab and move, cut) and the passing aspect (quick pass, ahead toward target) during activity transitions when asked by the teacher. (C) (NASPE 2)

 

4. The students will advance the ball forward toward the goal by utilizing the give and go with a target player in a 2v1 practice setting. (P) (NASPE 1)

 

5. The students will score on goal by throwing the ball into the goal at a below the waist level without stepping over the dotted line during a 3v3 game. (P) (NASPE 1)

 

6.  The students will demonstrate self-responsibility by fulfilling their roles on the team contract (coach meeting at coaches corner, equipment manager attaining equipment for team, trainer leading team in warm-up) upon entry into the gym. (A) (NASPE 5)

  

Teacher Objectives:

 

1. I will minimize off-task behavior by providing with clear instructions and an effective demonstration.  I will measure this using BALT-PE.  (NASPE 3.4, 4.5)

 

2. I will demonstrate effective management (start/stop signals, entry/exit, equipment distribution, and group disbursement) to keep my transition and management time below 15% using BALT-PE. (NASPE 4.4)

 

 

Equipment Needs:

*          30 pinnies

*          Team Contracts

*          10 gator balls

*          12 cones

*          Floor tape

*          Instructions on paper

 

Distribution:  The pinnies will be placed on the bleachers into 6 different piles based upon team and color.  Upon entry, the equipment managers will distribute the pinnies to each member of their team.  The Coach instructions will be set up in the left corner of the gym next to the stage.  Upon entry, the coaches will meet at this corner, find out initial instructions, and relay the information to their team.  The court will be divided into 3 sections.  Two cones will be placed 8 feet apart from each other at each end of the 3 court sections to create goals.  The gator balls will be located on the bleachers.  Floor tape will create a dotted line in a semi-circle around each of the pairs of cones.

 

During activity:  The students will be playing team handball at their home courts.  The cones will remain at each end of the courts during game play.  When the whistle is blown by the teacher, the students will stop game play, put the gator ball at their feet, and look at the teacher for further instructions.

 

Collection:  After activity, the equipment managers will collect their team’s pinnies and set them back on the bleachers in a neat pile where they had originally found them and place the gator ball back on the bleachers.

 

Management:

 

Rules:

*          Proper shoes

*          Safety first

*          Whistle: stop, look, and listen

*          Respect people and equipment

*          Always try your best

 

Consequences:

*          Warning

*          Sit out

*          Call home

 

Grouping:

*          The students will be playing team handball in teams of 3-5 at their home courts located in one of the three sections of the gym.

 

Team Contract:

*          Good sportspersonship behavior

*          Fair play

*          Hard work

*          Cooperation

*          Respect

*          Positive attitudes

*          Responsibility

*          Coach- leads team and gives initial instructions

*          Scorekeeper- keeps track of team points

*          Trainer- leads warm-up and stretches

*          Equipment Manager- distributes equipment to members of team and returns equipment neatly where originally located.

*          Floater- fills in roles of students on team who is absent

 

 

Signals:

*          Start: “Go”

*          Stop: Whistle

*          Getting the teacher’s attention: The students stay in their home court and raise their hand

 

Safety Considerations:

*          The students will be playing at their home courts and the boundaries will be clearly defined.

*          Gator balls will be placed at the students’ feet during breaks in activity.

*          The goals will be set up at least 4 feet away from the bleachers.

*          The students will be playing warm defense one arms length away.

Entry:

Upon entry, the equipment managers will distribute the pinnies to each member of their team.  The Coach instructions will be set up in the left corner of the gym next to the stage.  Upon entry, the coaches will meet at this corner, find out initial instructions, and relay the information to their team.  The court will be divided into 3 sections.

 

Warm-up:        Time: 5 minutes

Objectives Addressed:  1, 2, and 6

 

The coach of each team will meet in the corner and read the instructions for the initial activity and choice of three stretches.  The coach will relay the information back to his or her teammates.  The instructions will consist of playing keep-a-way with the three teammates.  After 5 catches and throws, the person holding the ball will become the defender, and the other two teammates will throw back and forth.  After each person has had a chance to defend, the trainer will begin leading the team in stretches. The book of stretches is located by the stage for the trainers’ reference, and they may choose 3 stretches to lead their team in.  When I blow the whistle, the students will stop, set down their equipment, and wait for further instructions.

 

Transition:

The students will be asked to sit down in their home court facing the center. I will choose one group of three to help with the demonstration while the other group(s) of three pay close attention. I will then begin reviewing the types of passing and catching the students did with Ultimate Frisbee to align it with the new game.

 

 

Introduction to Lesson:

To introduce the lesson, tell the students that today we will be playing Team Handball, and it is a game where your goal is to invade or go into your opponent’s space and score a point in their goal.  Have you played a game similar to this before? Yes, ultimate Frisbee. How did you play to make yourselves successful in ultimate Frisbee? What did you do to get open? Cut, go to an open area.  What did you do to make it hard for the defender? Cut, short passes, quick passes.

 

Game 1: Advancing forward toward end zone (3v3)           Time: 4 minutes

Objective Addressed:  2, 3, and 4

 

1st Task Description:

For this task, the goal is to move the ball forward towards the opponent’s space by passing and receiving with teammates to score a point in their end zone without dropping the ball or taking more than one step.  You will play 3 v 3.  Defenders will be playing warm defense- one arms length away.  Defenders are not allowed to knock the ball out of a person’s hands.  If a defender does knock the ball out, nothing will happen.  It is still the other team’s ball. However, just because the defender can not knock the ball out, does not mean that the offense can stand holding the ball.  If a person is holding the ball for more than 3 seconds, it becomes the other team’s ball, and they will start at that spot. The team on offense is trying to pass the ball to each other in order to reach the other team’s end zone by making short passes to teammates.  If a pass is passed the length of half the court, it will become the other team’s ball. If a ball is dropped, it becomes the other team’s ball, and they will begin playing wherever the ball was dropped.  When a point is scored, the other team will begin playing the ball from their end zone.

 

Conditions:

*          3 seconds

*          Allow one step

*          Warm defense- one arm

*          If ball knocked out of hands- no change of possession

*          No dribbling

*          No long passes

*          Restart of play:

*          If ball is dropped- restart where dropped

*          After a score- restart where scored

*          Out of bounds (side lines) – restart at spot

          

 

Demonstration:

Have 4 people demonstrate.  2 will be designated offense.  2 will be designated defense.  Instruct the defense to play warm defense and not to steal the ball.  Have offense reach the end zone.  Point out how their passes were short and quick and how the students got open.  Next show what will happen if the ball is knocked out of the opponent’s hands (No change of possession), and if a player stands for more than 3 seconds (Change of possession).  As the students play, point out how they are restarting play and when a change of possession occurs.  Point out how the students are cutting and moving to open areas to give their teammate an opportunity to pass them the ball.

 

When I say “go”, go back into your home courts and begin playing.  The yellow team will start with the ball at their end zone.  “Go”.

 

Refining Cues &/or Questions:

*          What did the offense do in order to score a point?  Pass back and forth to each other to get to the end zone.

*          What kind of passes did they make to each other? Short and quick passes

*          Why is it important to make short and quick passes? So it’s harder for the defender and so you don’t get caught standing for more than 3 seconds.

*          How were you able to get yourself open? Jab and move to an open space.

 

Cues:

 

Receiver:

*          Jab and move

*          Move to an open area

 

Thrower:

*          Short, quick passes

*          Pass ahead toward target

 

Simplification #1: To make the task less challenging, allow the students to take 2 steps.

Simplification #2: Have the students play 2 v 1.

 

Extension #1:  To make the task more challenging, have the students play 4 v 4.

Extension #2: Allow the students to knock the ball out of the opponent’s hands.

 

 

Assessment/Review:

To assess the students, make sure that they are not dropping the ball when advancing toward the goal.  If they are dropping the ball, the most likely cause is because they are having trouble getting open and are panicking when there is a defender near.  If this occurs, pause game play and review the cues on getting open, cutting, and moving without the ball.

 

 Transition:

Blow the whistle.  After the students freeze, put their equipment down, and listen, have them sit in their home courts and go over the check for understanding questions.  Ask them who scored a lot and how they were successful.  Point out how the successful teams were the teams who made short quick passes and who moved to open areas by jab stepping. 

 

Practice Task: Give and go practice with target player

Time: 4 minutes

Objective Addressed: 2, 3, 6, and 8

 

2nd Task Description:

For this practice, the students will be working on making short, quick passes and moving without the ball into open space in order to progress toward the goal. The teams of three will be on half of the court facing the goal.  One player will be the passing player, one will be the target player, and one will be playing pretend defense.  The passing player will stand on the left side of the dotted line facing the goal about 6-8 feet away.  The target player will be standing at the top of the dotted line ready to receive a pass.  The passer will pass the ball to the target player and run forward towards the goal, ready to receive another pass.  The target player will receive the ball from the passer and pass the ball back to the passer, making sure they are leading their pass toward the goal.  After the pass has been completed, the passer will become the target player, the target player will become the defender, and the defender will become the passer.  After each person has gone through each position twice, the defender will begin playing warm defense, and the passer will begin to shoot at the goal (below waist is a point).  Make sure the defender knows that warm defense means one arms length away and not knocking the ball out of the offender’s hand.  The three players will continue to rotate in this pattern until the teacher blows the whistle.

       

 

Refining Cues &/or Questions:

*          What does the passer do after they pass to the target player? Run down court towards goal.

*          What does the target player do after they receive the ball? Pass the ball to the passer and lead them towards the goal.

*          Where does the passer rotate? Target player. Target player? Defender. Defender? Passer.

*          What happens after you go to each position twice? We shoot at the goal and defender plays warm defense.

 

Cues:

 

Receiver:

*          Jab and move

*          Move to an open area

 

Thrower:

*          Short, quick passes

*          Pass ahead toward target

 

 

Simplification #1 : To make the task less challenging, have the defender play cold defense the entire time.

 

Extension#2:  To make the task more challenging, allow the defender to steal the ball.

 

 

 

Assessment/Review:

In order to assess the students, make sure the passer is passing and moving.  Make sure the target player is leading the passer toward the goal.  If they are dropping the ball, the most likely cause is because they are having trouble getting open and are panicking when there is a defender near.  If this occurs, pause game play and review the cues on getting open, cutting, and moving without the ball.

 

 

 Transition:

Blow the whistle.  After the students freeze, put their equipment down, and listen, have them sit in their home courts and go over the check for understanding questions.  Ask them who scored a lot and how they were successful.  Point out how the successful teams were the teams who made short quick passes and who moved to open areas by jab stepping.  Give demonstration of next game and positive pin point those teams who are getting started right away.

 

 

Game 2: Advancing forward toward the goal (3 v 3)       Time: 4 minutes

Objective Addressed: 2, 4, and 5

 

3rd Task Description:

For this task, the goal is to move the ball forward towards the opponent’s space by passing and receiving with teammates to score a point in their goal without dropping the ball or taking more than one step.  You will play 3 v 3.  Defenders will be playing warm defense- one arms length away.  Defenders are not allowed to knock the ball out of a person’s hands.  If a defender does knock the ball out, nothing will happen.  It is still the other team’s ball. However, just because the defender can not knock the ball out, does not mean that the offense can stand holding the ball.  If a person is holding the ball for more than 3 seconds, it becomes the other team’s ball, and they will start at that spot. The team on offense is trying to pass the ball to each other in order to reach the other team’s goal by shooting below their waist and making short passes to teammates. The shooter must shoot from behind the dotted line.  If the person’s foot touches or crosses the dotted line, the point will not count, and it will become the other team’s ball.  If a pass is passed the length of half the court, it will become the other team’s ball. If a ball is dropped, it becomes the other team’s ball, and they will begin playing wherever the ball was dropped.  When a point is scored, the other team will begin playing the ball from their goal.

 

Conditions:

*          3 seconds

*          Allow one step

*          Warm defense- one arm

*          If ball knocked out of hands- no change of possession

*          No dribbling

*          No long passes

*          Shoot from behind line

*          Restart of play:

*          If ball is dropped- restart where dropped

*          After a score- restart where scored

*          Out of bounds (side lines) – restart at spot

*          If shot past dotted line

 

         

 

When I say “go”, go back into your home courts and begin playing.  The yellow team will start with the ball at their end zone.  “Go”.

 

Refining Cues &/or Questions:

*          What did the offense do in order to score a point?  Pass back and forth to each other to get to the end zone.

*          What kind of passes did they make to each other? Short and quick passes

*          Why is it important to make short and quick passes? So it’s harder for the defender and so you don’t get caught standing for more than 3 seconds.

*          How were you able to get yourself open? Jab and move to an open space.

 

Cues:

 

Receiver:

*          Jab and move

*          Move to an open area

 

Thrower:

*          Short, quick passes

*          Pass ahead toward target

 

Simplification #1: To make the task less challenging, allow the students to take 2 steps.

Simplification #2: Have the students play 2 v 1.

Simplification #3: Allow a point to be counted if through the goal below shoulder length.

 

Extension #1:  To make the task more challenging, have the students play 4 v 4.

Extension #2: Allow the students to knock the ball out of the opponent’s hands.

 

 

Assessment/Review:

To assess the students, make sure that they are not dropping the ball when advancing toward the goal.  If they are dropping the ball, the most likely cause is because they are having trouble getting open and are panicking when there is a defender near.  If this occurs, pause game play and review the cues on getting open, cutting, and moving without the ball.

 

 

Lesson Closure:

To close the lesson, ask the students to sit in a semi-circle around the teacher. Go over the important aspects of advancing toward the goal such as moving forward without the ball, give and go, short, quick passes, and leading your passes ahead of your target.  After reviewing the cues one last time, tell the students that next class we will be focusing on shooting at the goal.

 

 

Final Transition Statement: 

 

When I say ‘Go’, the equipment managers will collect their team’s pinnies and set them back on the bleachers in a neat pile where they had originally found them and place the gator ball back on the bleachers.  The students will then line up at the door and wait to be dismissed from class.
