Questions to Check Understanding

How many feet should you jump with?

When do you jump? When you get to
the poly spot
Adaptations

the teacher can move the poly spots
forward or backwards. The teacher can
send lower skilled students to the
smaller basketball hoops. The teacher
can create competitions to have the
students more engaged
Transition: Students will have 30
seconds to collect all the equipment and
return to home base.
CLOSURE:
Review: Great Job today everyone.
Can someone tell me something they
learned about the jump shot? Was it
harder than normal? Its important to be
under control and not moving as fast as
you can. Can someone tell me the 3
steps to a jump shot? Dribble, Jump,
Shoot. Tomorrow Reggie will wrap up
our final day of basketball with you all.
