Duration: 45min Classes


Materials: 4 tees, 4 bats, wiffle balls, bases
Grades: Prek-5
April 11-15
VA SOLs:
K.1 The student will demonstrate progress toward the mature form of selected locomotor,
nonlocomotor, and manipulative skills to understand the various ways the body can move
(c)Demonstrate approaching-mature form (at least two critical elements: which are small,
isolated parts of the whole skill or movement) used in stationary manipulative skills for tossing
and throwing underhand to targets, bounce and catch, toss and catch, kicking stationary ball to
target, striking stationary object with paddle, dribbling, rolling ball underhand to target, trapping
and volleying with hand.
1.1 The student will demonstrate approaching mature form and the correct critical elements
(small, isolated parts of the whole skill or movement) of locomotor, non-locomotor, and
manipulative skills.
(c)Demonstrate approaching mature forms (at least two critical elements) for use in
manipulative skills (e.g., rolling ball underhand to target, underhand throw to targets, underhand
toss and catch to self and with a partner, dribbling with hand in general space, dribbling with foot,
kicking stationary ball to target, striking stationary object with hand or with short-handled
implement, throwing underhand, volleying object upward with various body parts)
2.1The student will demonstrate approaching (at least two critical elements) and mature form
(all correct critical elements) of locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative skills
(a)Demonstrate individually and with a partner the mature forms of manipulative skills for
underhand throwing, catching underhand tossed or thrown ball, kicking/passing stationary ball to
a partner or to a target, foot dribble with control while walking, striking, consecutive upward
volleying with hand(s), and stationary hand dribbling.
3.1 The student will demonstrate mature form (all critical elements) for a variety of skills and
apply skills in increasingly complex movement activities.
a) Demonstrate the critical elements for overhand throw and catch using a variety of objects;
control, stop, and kick ball to stationary and moving partners/objects; dribble with
dominant/preferred hand/foot; pass a ball to a moving partner; strike ball/object with short
handled implement upward and forward; strike/bat ball off tee (correct grip, side to target, hip
rotation); jump/land horizontally (distance) and vertically (height).
4.1 The student will refine movement skills and demonstrate the ability to combine them in
increasingly complex movement environments/activities.
a) Demonstrate mature form for specialized locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative
skill combinations in game and modified sports activities, to include overhand throw and catch
with a partner while moving, overhand throw to a target for distance, dribbling and passing soccer
ball with varying speed while moving, dribbling with non-dominant/non-preferred hand walking
and dominant/preferred hand at various speeds, catching thrown objects, striking a ball with
short-handled and long-handled implement, and underhand volley/strike.
5.1 The student will demonstrate mature movement forms, create movement patterns, and
begin to describe movement principles.
a) Demonstrate mature form in locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative skill
combinations in more complex and dynamic environments and modified sports activities, to
include overhand and underhand throw and catch, execution to a target, hand dribble, foot
dribble, consecutive striking with a partner over a net or against a wall, and striking a ball while
stationary and moving.

Objectives:Prek-1 After a lesson on hitting/swinging TSWBAT successfully and safely show


proper batting form off a tee.
2-5: After a lesson on baseball rules and swinging techniques TSWBAT successfully demonstrate
proper hitting form and execute proper rules while playing full game.
Assessment:
The students will be assessed while they are either batting off the tee or up to bat in the
game. I will be looking for proper stance, keeping back foot down while swinging (squish the
bug), back elbow up, and level swing.
The students will be assessed on rules of the game including a force out, tag out, and tag
up rule.
Key Vocabulary:
Level swing
Squish the bug
Choke up
Tag up
Force out

Direct Instructional Activities/Strategies/Guided Practice:


Students enter gym and find piece of tape to stand on
TW: Lead students warm up/exercises-Each will be done for time unless specified
Jumping jacks
Mountain Climbers
Sit up-10
Planks-2x15 secs
Line jumps
10 push ups
SW: Run intervals of 45 second jog and 45-1 minute walk 4 times
SW: Line up for water and then sit in middle of gym for further instruction
TW: PreK-1:Teach lesson on hitting and bat safety.
Point feet towards base, spread feet apart, hands back and together, Right handers-right hand on
top, left handers-left hand on top, level swing, keep back foot down and squish the bug.
Look around before swinging ALWAYS
TW: 2-5: Give lesson on tag up rule and force out and review basics of hitting
Tag up rule: Runner cannot advance a base during pop fly while ball is in the air until the ball is
caught, and the runner must touch the current base they are on before advancing after the catch.
Force out: If a runner is on a base with a teammate on a base directly behind them they must
advance bases on a hit, if they are out before they reach the base it is a force out.
Tag out: when a runner is out by being touched with the ball
SW: Prek-1: Bat off tees. 4 tees will be set up for students to hit off of. Students will be put into
groups of 4 and follow a rotation. 2 members of groups will field balls and roll them back
towards tees, 1 member will collect balls and set up tee for hitter, 1 member will hit.
TW: Go around and correct students batting, spending one on one time with each student
SW: 2-5 play game of wiffle ball while demonstrating skills and rules learned.
TW: Pitch, catch, and officiate game. Also help students one by one while they come up

to bat, correcting any problems on a one on one basis.


9. TW: Have students clean up and line up, while lined up teacher will use last 2 minutes for
closure.
Differentiation Strategies:
1. Explain hitting in many different ways, using demonstrations and key words and phrases to
remember. Also spending one on one time with each student and their swing to help them learn
individually. If a student came up to bat multiple times during the game and could not make
contact then a tee would be brought out for that student.

Level swing
Elbow up/chicken wing
Bat safety
