Formal and Informal Assessments: Teacher will ask questions and after the lesson to check for comprehension. The students will be using soccer
performance assessment, pedometer (for MVPA), and a unit exam at the end of the unit.

Adaptation of content or activities for special populations (equipment and rules):

Taking air out of some of the soccer balls to make it easier for controlling and passing, kicking a stationary ball instead of a moving ball, and verbally
demonstrating the techniques instead of actually performing.

Instructor Reflection: responses to these questions need to be included for the unit plan to be complete
1. How are your students productively engaged in the development of the identified skill-related fitness components?
Students will be productively engaged in the development of skill-related fitness by learning the dribbling, passing, stopping,
and shooting techniques of soccer. They will be demonstrating their knowledge of these techniques by performing them each
day throughout the lessons.
2. How are your students productively engaged in the development of the identified health-related fitness components?
Students will be asked to take their pedometer step and MVPA recordings after being physically active during the activities.
Taking the step and MVPA readings will show the students how many steps they have taken while being active as well as the
MVPA. The more time in MVPA you have, the more physically active you are being.
3. What informal assessment activities are planned as a formative measure to check for understanding of unit content
knowledge and affective or physical skill development?

Elementary Physical Education Unit Plan

Students will be assessed by being asked questions pertaining to the skills being used in class including: can you show me the
technique to dribbling a soccer ball? What part of the foot is used to change the direction of the ball when dribbling? What
part of your foot do you use when passing the ball? How to you stop the ball when its been passed to you? Why is
sportsmanship and teamwork important?
4. What formal assessment activities are planned as a summative measure to check for understanding of unit content
knowledge and affective or physical skill development? Students will be assessed by the soccer performance assessment
used. The students will be assessed by logging their pedometer step and MVPA recordings for the day. Lastly, the students will
be assessed with an end of the unit exam to check for complete understanding off soccer.
5. What materials are included for special populations in this particular unit?
A larger ball would be used to make it easier for students to dribble a ball around in order to perform proper techniques for
each activity. Bigger nets would be implemented in order for students to shoot at a larger target area. A teacher assistant would
also be in the classroom to aid those who need any special help.
