Lesson Procedures
Introduction (5 minutes):
Gather students in a circle and discuss the importance of teamwork in soccer. Ask students if they have played soccer before and what skills they think are essential for the game.
Set objectives for the day, explaining that they will focus on dribbling and passing.
Warm-Up (10 minutes):
Conduct a dynamic warm-up including high knees, butt kicks, and lateral shuffles to prepare students for physical activity.
Finish the warm-up with a light jog around the gymnasium while emphasizing proper running form.
Instructional Strategies (15 minutes):
Dribbling Drill:
Set up cones in a zigzag pattern (10 yards apart).
Instruct students to practice dribbling the ball through the cones using both feet, focusing on keeping the ball close.
Provide individual feedback as students rotate through the drill.
Passing Drill:
Pair students up 5 yards apart and have them practice passing the ball back and forth.
Emphasize the importance of using the inside of the foot for accurate passing and following through on their kicks.
Encourage them to communicate with their partner during the drill.
Activity (20 minutes):
Small-Sided Games:
Divide the class into four teams of five students.
Set up two small fields (15 x 20 yards) using cones.
Each game will last 8 minutes, rotating teams after each match.
Students will apply dribbling and passing skills learned earlier, while also implementing basic soccer rules (e.g., no hands, offside rules).
Closure (5 minutes):
Assessment
Formative Assessment:
Observe students during drills and games, providing feedback on their technique. Take notes on individual student performance to tailor future lessons.
Use peer assessments by having students give constructive feedback to their partners during drills.
Summative Assessment:
At the end of the unit, students will participate in a soccer match where they will be assessed on their ability to demonstrate the learned skills and knowledge of game rules. Additionally, a quiz on soccer rules will be administered.
Modifications/Differentiation
For students needing additional support, provide one-on-one coaching during drills.
Create smaller groups for less experienced students, allowing them to practice skills without pressure.
Offer alternative activities (e.g., kicking a stationary ball) for students with mobility challenges.
