Lesson 1. In the past I would introduce and explain the Movin and Munchin program to our students who then have the option of participating in the program throughout the school year. With the smartboard i would be able to add the Blast Off game to help reinforce the healthy eating and acitivity choices we are trying to reinforce with the students. []



Lesson 2. During the jump rope unit i also work with agility ladders as a warm-up. Usually students are at their station and I demonstrate a pattern and then they repeat it until they stop and I show them a new pattern to try. WIth the smartboard I will be able to give them a chance to watch a video and observe a pattern, then have them practice for several minutes, come back over watch another pattern and go back and to their stations and practice, Using the smartboard i can pause and telestrate or comment on any key points. Using the smartboard will also automatically transition the students on when to stop and come over to watch the demonstation making more efficient use of class time. I will also use a DVD - Sparq - Youth Training.. To access YouTube video i can use my personal labtop. []

Lesson 3. As part of the Jump Rope for Heart Unit I will use this activity from http://kidshealth.org/kid/ to illustrates how the heart works. This is something that previously was done with a poster on the wall, but will now be done interactively with the students using the smartboard. http://kidshealth.org/PageManager.jsp?lic=1&article_set=54397&cat_id=20607

Lesson 4. Throughout the year I add words to a word wall to help students with physical education related vocabulary. With the smartboard I would be able to use brain pop to show a short video, do vocabulary exercise and take related quizes. For primary grades this is a lesson I would use that would other wise would just be lectured to students. http://www.brainpopjr.com/health/bodies/heart/
