Group Starter Activity Teaching Assignment

Group Teaching Dates:

* If you were absent the day we split into groups or forgot who is in your group, you will need to find your group by looking in the People Tab. Here is a tutorial on how to find your group.

Create Starter Activity

As a group you are to find or create and teach a Starter Activity (AKA: Instant Activity, ASAP, Warm-up) to our entire class. The starter activity must get the student moving and should take at least 5 minutes but no longer than 7 minutes to complete.

Submit Written Copy of Activity 

No later then the Tuesday before your group presents...

Submit through this assignment:

• Equipment List for your presentation
• Written copy of your activity

Teach Starter Activity:

You must be prepared to teach at the beginning of class on your assigned day. Be sure to be on time that day because you will be starting class!  You will be graded on the quality of the starter and the organization of your group, each person in the group must be involved. 

Helpful Hints:

• Write out any instructions to help you keep them short and focused when you are explaining it to the class.
• Make sure your activity presentation is divided equally among your group and each group member has a role to play. 
• Make sure you have a plan of where in the gym you want your fellow classmates to be when they are doing your starter activity. Where do you want them to line up? how will you get them in groups? How will you distribute the equipment, and collect it etc. It helps to drawer pictures so you can visualizes where you want everyone to be. This also helps your group all be on the same page. 

Working With Groups:

Each group will have at least two weeks to work on this assignments. You will use MS teams to meet in your groups if you are not able to meet in person. Refer to the following tutorial to understand how to meet in MS teams.

Each group member needs to participate equally in teaching and presenting the starter Activity.
