The Practical Sessions That We Coached Were Net / Wall, Invasion And Striking And Fielding

Through classroom visits, I am able to provide constructive feedback and advice to colleagues regarding their practice in order to help them improve their teaching and learning strategies. In this way, I am able to ensure that the learning experiences of students throughout the department is constantly being improved.

After my maths lessons, I proposed a series of questions to myself: why does he call out during my lessons? Why do I have the expectation that he should put his hand up? Should I have imposed a different solution rather than have child x sit next to the teaching assistant? Could I have handled the situation more effectively? I continued to ask myself a series of questions which enabled me to reflect on what I did and why I did it. Although I may not be able to find a solution to my critical incident, I aim to explore and analyse it by reflecting on my teaching practice. Dewey (1933) in Pollard (1998) highlights that

As a member of the PGTEF, we were required to memorize what was called “The PGTEF Pledge.” The pledge speaks about how we are to portray ourselves, and how we must behave in all aspects of life, on and off the court. PGTEF participants were taught many lessons, such as becoming involved in community activities. Participants were given the opportunity to do this through assisting the coaches during the summer. While assisting the coaches, our jobs were to teach younger players the fundamental of tennis, as well as teaching them the lessons that the sport entails, such as self-confidence, courage, respect for one another, and sportsmanship. This value remained with me through the years. As a result these activities, I began to become more involved in my community by volunteering. I became a docent and Teen Ambassador for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African Art, a member of the Teen Advisory Publishing Council, and graduated from the Leadership Prince George’s County Emerging Leaders program. The lessons and values that were taught to me during my time in the Prince George’s Tennis and Education Foundation are priceless, and I believe that they were essential to everything I have accomplished, and will accomplish in my

6)Receiving the serve is vital to success for any team. Poor reception of service puts teams hoping to get a sideout at a huge disadvantage right from the beginning. If the person receiving the serve is unable to make a good pass to the setter, then the setter's task of setting a good ball to the spiker is made that much more difficult. Receiving the serve sets the tone, then, for the whole offensive sequence that follows.

“Come on guys! Get moving!” Sam yelled. “Regan focus on your kicks.” she told me. Feeling the looks of the others, not yet placed in lanes. I kept swimming. I skipped a flip turn to regain my breath, but I’d known I would pay for it later because the coaches punished us for not doing stuff we knew we should. At the end of practice

I will be discussing the sport of tennis, the learning sequences, the skill techniques, learning cues, and teaching styles in that order. First that will be discussed is the learning sequences for the sport of tennis. According to Physical Education Activity Handbook, when you are first getting started with tennis, you need to introduce the scoring and tiebreaker procedures. Next, you need to explain the equipment used in tennis such as tennis balls and the racket. After that, the teacher should explain the rules and etiquette. It is best to introduce when directly related to skill or strategy being taught. Then, the skills and techniques should be taught. The skills and techniques that need to be taught are grips, strokes, the serve,

The goal of this lesson is for my students to understand the fundamentals of completing a successful bump, set, spike, and underhand serve. These aspects will be important when working with their teammates in a positive manner to complete these tasks and use these components to be successful in game play.

Physical education is a vital part of education in schools and has changed significantly over many years and generations to become what it has now from the 1992 curriculum (Accessed at http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1992/603/contents/made. Last accessed 13/03/2011) to the newly introduced 2008 curriculum. It has changed in many ways

At the Ontario Summer Games, every match that our teammates played counted. Connor was put up with a challenging opponent, but the team did not lose faith; we knew what our youngest player was capable of. In the first set, Connor was down almost 10 points. When he finally won another point, the umpire called the score and he was ready to serve, but his opponent was standing on the wrong side. The umpire kept calling him over but he didn’t respond.

This year I led two discussions on both grade 9 shabbatons, something I have never done before. I had to learn how to engage the chaninchim in the discussion and make them think about judaism or life in a way they might not have thought about before. This was hard at the beginning for me because it was something I wasn’t used to, but by the end I became much more comfortable and led an engaging and creative discussion.

As we all know, America is a nation of sports enthusiasts. Most Americans participate is some kind of sporting event, either as a spectator or as a competitor. In the pantheon of great American sports, there is one that stands out. It has been called the great American pastime. Yes, that great sport known as tennis. Tennis requires a mastery of many skills to be able to play competitively, but the primary skill needed to win in tennis is the serve. The serve is the primary offensive weapon used I tennis, because it is the only time when a player gets to put a ball into play. The player controls the speed, the placement, and the spin of the ball. With proper procedure, the serve can win many points and games for the server. The technique

Throughout the past six weeks the sport and recreation class taught years five to seven Students from two primary schools these being Modbury South and Ardtornish Primary. Throughout the task the class was split into groups were two members of the group would teach while the other two would observe and give feedback. Tyler and myself were paired up and decided to teach the students netball as we both had some knowledge on the sport including execution of skills and the basic rules. Tyler and I would first teach a group of students from Ardtornish Primary for three weeks before switching over and teaching a group of students from Modbury South. The teaching sessions allowed myself to demonstrate a wide range of skills such as leadership, organisation,

In my time doing mock trial, I worked in a team and helped younger, less-experienced members with their roles. I know that my time doing mock trial helped the mock trial community, but it helped me learn a lot too. Working in a team taught me the importance of collaboration and of keeping cool in the face of intense competition. It allowed me to share the thrill of victory and the taste of disappointment. Mentoring younger members made me realize that teaching solidified my own understanding and knowledge, and that I learned as much from others as they learned from me.
