[Solved] ECHD 303

Assignment Prompt & Instructions

For this activity, you will write a lesson plan for a group activity, or for an activity with more than one station, which teaches at least one locomotion skill. 1. Look at all slides, web pages, and videos for the week. https://youtu.be/NduivVHdkoE https://youtu.be/uE0cYB-9UYw *NOTES TO HELP WITH ASSIGNMENT* Teaching Fundamental Movement and Movement Awareness Concepts Fundamental Movement Skills help children develop the use of their muscles and can be divided into three groups: Locomotion Skills – ways of moving the body from one place to another. Stability Skills – moving parts of the body while remaining stable. Object Control Skills – moving to manipulate an object. When teaching movement skills you may choose to focus on one skill the children need to work on. However, you can also focus on more than one skill at a time. For example, you could create an activity where the children hop across the floor (locomotion skill), bend to pick up a bean bag (stability skill) then throw the bean bag (object control skill) across a tape line. Movement Awareness Concepts help children learn to control their movements. These skills can also be divided into three major groups and multiple skills can be practiced in one activity. Effort Awareness – controlling the timing, the force, and the flow of their movements. Space Awareness – controlling the space, the directions, the levels, and the pathways of their movements. Body Awareness – controlling the parts of their body, moving alone or with others, in various locations, through various roles. For example, the activity described above could also focus on hopping forward (direction) at a sustained (force) medium speed (time), with a group (role). Then throw the bean bag straight (pathway) with their arms and hands (body parts). An observant teacher will note which locomotion skills and which movement awareness skills each child has mastered and which could use more practice. *END OF NOTES* 2. Review the Sample Lesson Plan with notes on the previous page to see the format and how a lesson plan can be written. 3. Print the Fundamental Movement Skills and Movement Awareness Concepts tables. 4. Select at least one Locomotion skill to design a lesson around. Also, select Awareness Concepts. 5.Open the Lesson Plan Template for Physical Activities and fill in the information to describe a developmentally appropriate physical activity lesson. You may describe a learning idea of your own or modify an idea you have seen somewhere else. \ LessonPlanExamplewithNotes.docx](https://www.sweetstudy.com/files/lessonplanexamplewithnotes-docx "LessonPlanExamplewithNotes.docx") \ LessonPlanTemplateforPhysicalActivities.docx](https://www.sweetstudy.com/files/lessonplantemplateforphysicalactivities-docx "LessonPlanTemplateforPhysicalActivities.docx") \ FundamentalMovementSkillstable.docx](https://www.sweetstudy.com/files/fundamentalmovementskillstable-docx "FundamentalMovementSkillstable.docx") \ MovementAwarenessConcepts.docx](https://www.sweetstudy.com/files/movementawarenessconcepts-docx "MovementAwarenessConcepts.docx")
