Spin or Glide? That Is The Question

What
problems do I anticipate with this lesson?

Safety is my first concern.  Students will need to be closely supervised
during the throwing session.  Students
will also need access to a shot put area and equipment for their age
group.  The upload of their video may
have to be done at home if the school blocks YouTube or perhaps an alternative
site may be chosen like TeacherTube. 
Students may have trouble learning and demonstrating the proper techniques
but by comparing and contrasting how hard it is to learn the two styles, they
should be able to determine which style for them has an advantage or
disadvantage.



Physical Education Standards from the Ohio Department of Education

Standard 2:  Demonstrates understanding of movement concepts, principles, strategies and tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities.

Benchmark A: Apply tactical concepts and performance principles in physical activities.

  • Grade 6:  3. Describe and explain elements of performance principles as they relate to movement (e.g., the effects of different body positions on rotation in gymnastics).
  • Grade 7:  1.  Demonstrate transfer of performance principles across activities to aid learning (e.g., sending principles: throw/tennis serve/volley serve)
Benchmark B: Demonstrate knowledge of critical elements and biomechanical principles for specialized skills.
  • Grade 6:  1. Demonstrate understanding of movement principles through knowledge of critical elements (key points) of specialized locomotor and non-locomotor skills/movements.  2. Describe and explain critical elements of specific sport skills (e.g., shooting hand under the ball) and movement skills (e.g., tuck the chin on the chest as you roll).
  • Grade 7:  1. Demonstrate understanding of movement principles through knowledge of critical elements (key points) of specialized manipulative skills and movements.  2. Describe and explain critical elements required for the application of specific sport and movement skills in controlled settings (e.g., practice settings).
  • Grade 8:  1. Demonstrate understanding of movement principles through knowledge of critical elements (key points) of combined (locomotor, non-locomotor and manipulative) skills and movements.  2. Describe and explain critical elements required for the application of specific sport and movement skills in a dynamic environment (e.g., games).  3. Detect and correct errors in personal performance based on knowledge of results (e.g., analysis of contact and release point in sport skill execution).  4. Detect and correct errors based on knowledge of results and biomechanical principles (e.g., analysis of contact and release point in sport skill execution).
