Bridge - Yoga benefits the mind and body and is thus applicable to any part of our daily routine
Objectives (Learning) - To successfully string together 3 yoga poses into a fluid movement and to understand the benefits of each pose individually and the practice as a whole
Objectives (Teaching) - To get everyone involved and to learn by doing not just listening, regardless of their fitness level
Pre-test - Explanation of moves and their benefits - 4 minutes
Participatory - Students try moves - 3 minutes
Post-test - Feedback on how they did and what they could improve - 2 minutes
Summary & wrap up - Students put together what they have been taught into a fluid movement while I reiterate the reasoning behind the lesson - 1 minute
(No special materials are required for this lesson)
This lesson plan gives a broad general outline of the shape of the lesson, but I would also like to see the following:
ReplyDelete•more detailed description of the three moves and how you will help students understand what they are and how to do them
•more detail on the post-test. Is your plan to tell the students how they did and how they can improve? How will you know what they have learned by doing this? Remember, listening is more important than talking in teaching!
