Basic 1 PHYSICAL EDUCATION Term 1 Week 8 Lesson Plan

Have learners to sing songs and recite familiar rhymes in relation to the lesson

Demonstrate the pair of movements and ask learners to distinguish them by their names. A jog and a run: the obvious difference between the two is the pace. Jogging is defined as going at a pace of less than 6 mph, while running is running is defined as anything faster than 6 mph. A hop and a jump: the difference between jump and hop is that jump is to propel oneself rapidly upward such that momentum causes the body to become airborne while hop is to jump a short distance A gallop and a slide: galloping is a forward slide movement. Front foot steps forward with a little spring followed by the transfer of body weight to the back foot. As the back foot receives the body weight, the front foot repeats the forward step movement. The same lead foot always stays in front throughout the gallop Let them do this at the end of a related practical lesson. For this activity, learners use woven exercise mats, local drum and sticks of chalk to keep a steady local rhythm while performing the movement safely in a marked area.

Review the lesson with learners.
