Sample Activities:

 

·        GREAT PERFORMANCES - Provide students with an observer checklist for a particular sport or activity. Using a videotape of the sport or activity, focus on various skill levels from basic to advanced. Students refer to the observer checklist as they watch the tape. Discuss each level of play and the performance characteristics noted on the checklist. For example, show a home video of a beginning basketball player, then show a middle and high school student, a college player, and then a professional player. Students brainstorm and discuss the differences in skilled performance and identify why the performances differ (e.g., size, age, practice.)


Variation: Students compare performance at the various levels and develop a comparison-contrast map.
