(C)Understand and repeat the key points of a pass, shot, and dribbling of a basketball during
the closure of the lesson. (National # S2.H2.L1; MA CF # 2.9; Activity # Closure)

Teacher Performance Objective

During the lesson the teacher will:

1. Explain rules and safety of all the activities.

2. Check for understanding of the pass, shot, and dribbling of a basketball.
3. Keep a positive learning environment throughout the lesson by giving corrective
feedback.
4. Address any off-task behavior right away so it doesnt disrupt the lesson anymore
than it needs to.

Special Considerations:
This is my first lesson with these students, so I need to make sure they respect
me and I respect them.
When I observed this class there were a lot of students on their phones, so I will
need to address that there will be no phones during my lesson.
Beware of your surroundings. Basketball is a dangerous sport and anything can
happen at any time, so caution and safety will be key.
Look out for the nets at either end of the gymnasium because there are heavy
and wont budge easily if you run into them.
