1. Questions 1.Describe the method you used to gather general data on your performance. (4) 2.Why was this method appropriate? (3)

2. Gathering general data on your performance? We gathered general data by completing a skills checklist. Our partner watched us perform various flight, balance, rotational and inversion skills. We performed each skill 5 times. After our 5 th attempt our partner ticked whether we showed: 1.limited control and fluency 2.sometimes showed control and fluency 3.showed good control and fluency 4.consistently showed a high degree of control and fluency

3. Why was the data gathering method appropriate? Identified our strengths and weaknesses. Observation schedule provided us with a permanent record we could look back upon after practising. Performing each skill 5 times meant we got an accurate picture of our ability.

4. Intermediate 1 PE Skills and Techniques Lesson 2

5. Today we will Recap what skills and techniques are. Use sub-routines to break down and describe a skill. Look at methods of practice

6. What exactly are skills and techniques? A skill describes the purpose of linked sequences of movement. An example of a skill is shooting in basketball. Technique describes the ways of completing a skill. In basketball, shooting is a skill. Lay-up, set shot, jump shot and slam dunk are techniques for shooting.

7. Common features of simple and complex skills Simple SkillComplex Skills Few subroutinesMany subroutines Physically undemandingPhysically demanding Little coordination neededCoordination vital Simple order of movementsComplicated order of movements Only on movement at a timeMany movements at the same time Few judgements to be madeMany judgements to be made Easy environment (e.g. good weather conditions, no opposition, safety equipment) Difficult environment (e.g. poor weather conditions, full opposition, no safety equipment)

8. But what are subroutines again? Subroutines are the small parts (movements) that make up a skill. Simple SkillComplex Skills Few subroutinesMany subroutines

9. Why are subroutines helpful when analysing a skill? Allow you to break skills down into smaller parts which contain less subroutines. Doing this allows us to see more easily which parts of the skill are being performed correctly and which parts need to be developed.

10. Question: How many areas can skills be broken down into? Answer:Three PREPARATION ACTION RECOVERY

11. By analysing a performers Preparation, Action and Recovery, you are able to analyse the beginning, middle and finish of how well a techniques is completed.

12. Describing a high serve Question By analysing the performers preparation, action and recovery describe a high serve in badminton.

13. Break the above performance down into three parts. PreparationActionRecovery 1. 1.1. 2.2.2. 3.3.3. 4. 4.

14. Describe a forward roll PREPARATION – Feet together. Up on your toes, knees bent, bottom above your heels. Head tucked in, chin on chest. ACTION – Reach forward with both hands, arms straight Take weight on hands Curve back Keep legs together RECOVERY – Open body out Finish standing upright and still.

15. Describing a Simple Skill Question Using the previous slide describe a forward roll in sentences Start up on my toes with my feet together, knees bent and bottom above my heels. I also tuck my chin in by putting it on my chest. Next I reach forward with both hands, arms straight, push forward from my feet and take my weight on hands. To allow me to rotate I curve my back and keep my legs together. To finish I open out and finish standing upright and still.

16. Describe a high serve PREPARATION – Feet together. Up on your toes, knees bent, bottom above your heels. Head tucked in, chin on chest. ACTION – Reach forward with both hands, arms straight Take weight on hands Curve back Keep legs together RECOVERY – Open body out Finish standing upright and still.

17. Learning Skills Methods of Practice

18. Question What are the three main Methods of Practice? Methods of Practice Gradual Build-up Whole | Part | Whole Passive / Active Practices

19. Gradual Build Up The skill is broken down into small parts and is learned in stages. Once a stage has been practiced and mastered then the learner moves to the next stage. The learner knows they have mastered a stage if they complete it successfully 3 times in a row. Each stage is harder than the one before as it contains more subroutines and is more like the whole skill.

20. What are the benefits of Gradual Build Up? It breaks complex (difficult) skills down into smaller parts which are easier to learn. Each stage is challenging yet achievable. It builds the performers confidence. It makes dangerous skills safe to learn.

21. Group Task The Gradual Build Up of a Handstand Get into a group of four, create a poster which shows the stages of learning for a handstand.
