The theme of my lesson is Water Polo, a sport that few really know about. The point of my lesson is to expand the students’ knowledge of the sport along with other types of sports other than the basic sports like basketball, baseball, football, and soccer. My lessons will be focused on history, English, P.E., and health. In the history part, the students will learn where and when the sport was invented. They will also compare how the sport was played when it was invented to today. In the English portion, the students will read articles or books about famous players. They will need to look articles up online with some suggested sites or use an online database. They will then write a short paper on the player they read about. The health lesson will focus on the nutrition a player needs to stay healthy. In doing this, the students will use the food pyramid website to set a daily meal plan for a player that provides all the right amount of nutrients. They will also learn about how their body moves. Lastly, in the P.E. lesson the students will learn how to swim with the water polo ball properly. They will watch either instructional videos or and actual water polo game. After watching the videos, the teacher will demonstrate and the kids will try by first holding the ball properly and learning the correct swimming techniques and then finally put everything together. media type="custom" key="8396618" media type="custom" key="8461926" media type="custom" key="8462418" My Blog!
