Organizational Strategies





1) Equipment: 1 ball for every 2 students (17 balls), 17 pinnies, 28 hats (cones).

2) Teaching Space: Entire soccer field.  Grids will be set up for drills and games (10 meters by 10 meters). If necessary, students are called into the  middle of  the field for instruction or discussion. When possible, drills and games will be altered at individual grids (this will increase the time on task and allow for simplifications or extensions where necassary).

3) Support materials: Diagrams could be drawn on the chalk board to introduce students to the concept of grid work. This would obviously have to take place inside.

4) Teams will always be of mixed ability, this will allow the students to help and encourage each other. It will also ensure that people are partners with somebody they probably would not have chosen for themselves, thus enhancing the soical aspect of PE.
