Week 1 (February 1 – 5)
Unit: Weight Room
Grade: 9 (co Ed) – Day 1 group & Day 2 group
Positives
- Punctual (8am-4pm) everyday
- All sheets required for lesson printed before class
- Lesson plans completed
- Non participatory students: work sheets given out each time with questions based on lesson
- Visual cue cards (for students who need to see how to do the activity).
- Using a class room to teach something before going to weight room (if accessible)
- Modifying lessons based on ability level / student engagement
- Updating website daily for students / parents & guardians
To Work On:
- Kids need to know in advance of pencils / calculators, etc in advance prior to class
- Weight room: give instructions prior to going into weight room (class management)
- Giving a work sheet in a weight room isn’t super useful because kids don’t have anywhere to put it! (spend more time writing than working out).
- Inclusivity! – Working on including Jake more into the lessons
- “Time” management (twice the lesson ended 15 minutes early).
