SC Secondary Session 4
The Best you Can Be! Teaching Like a Champion
During this session I will be incorporating the Teaching Like a Champion Techniques
Voice – any time a student is not loud enough the word “Voice” is a signal to speak louder
Eyes – When the teacher says “eyes” all students track the teacher based on “Slant” from Teach Like A Champion Sit Up, Listen, ask and answer questions, nod, track the teacher
Post It – have objectives and activities posted on an easel every day
No Opt Out – ask a student and if they don’t know the answer ask a student that does and make the first student repeat the correct answer and then have the whole class repeat the correct answer.

2. Koosh Ball Pass-Pump up the Jam
Have students have an object that doesn’t bounce. Have students have two each. Put one in front of them on the floor if they loose theirs. Start with a ball in the right hand and hold your left hand open so that you can receive the next ball in your left hand. “Up and Pass” lift the ball up in the air with your right hand bring it down and pass counter clockwise to the next person. Do this four times. The next sequence is toss the ball to the other hand four counts and then do “up and pass” do this sequence 4 times. The last sequence is circle the ball around your head and around your waist and then up and pass. So for this last one it is “around your head around your waist up and pass. Once they have learned all of these put them together for 4 times each in the sequence.

*In the Hoop Step Back Game – Start with 4 shuttles 3 steps away from hoop serve four shuttles in a row and count up your score for 3 steps away, each shuttle in the hoop is worth 3 points if it hits inside hoop or the hoop or bounces out after landing inside is still worth 3 points, then serve 4 from 4 steps away, 5 steps etc.

Teacher may say 3 right and overhead clear, students will shuffle to the right and show the position of the racket for an overhead clear. Forward and smash, students will shuffle or run 3 steps forward and smash, etc.
*Count Down Overhead Clear – Partners rally overhead clears over net counting down from 10, if you miss you start over, how many sets of 10 can you do in 3 minutes.
*Partner Overhead Drop – one partner serves, other partner returns to mid court to set up an overhead drop for serving partner. Switch server each time.
*Smash It – same as above only smash from center court
*tournament play singles
Day 9
*Short Serve – Have a line on the floor to designate the short service line. Students serve three short serves in a row over the net. If the shuttle lands within a racket head beyond the short service line 3 points are scored. If it lands within the length of the entire racket one point is scored. Do this straight first and then on the diagonal. Have partner on other side of the net keeping score and then they serve 3 in a row. Make it a total team score first and then an individual score.
*One and Out Quick Serve – Have 3 doubles teams on one court and each person has a shuttle in their hand. Establish one side of the court as the Champs Court and the other side as the Challengers Court. The serve always starts in the Champs court. One team is waiting on the sideline of the challenger’s court, ready to sub in quickly. If the champs win the point they stay and they serve quickly as the sub team comes in to replace the team that lost the point. If the challengers win they run under the net to the champs court and quickly serve to the replacement team. A variation of this would be for the champs team to choose which court to serve to depending where the sub team is standing.
*Cross Country Badminton – same as regular badminton only when you rotate to a new team you take your score with you and keep adding on to that score.
Day 10
Solo – This is an individual activity. A student hits the shuttle over the net or rope and then runs under the rope to return the shuttle to the other side. This is a very challenging workout. You might want to have a partner or groups of 3 do this one at a time because the student will need a rest especially if they are able to rally 4-5 points in a row. You can make this an individual or team total event. One point for each hit, and the student can start with a regular serve, modified serve, or a toss and a clear. Have the rope or net about 6’ high so it is easy for them to go under it.
*Short Serve Drill – partner serves short serve and other partner does an underhand or over hand clear.
*Drive It – partner serves, other partner makes a clear to mid-court and server executes a drive shot
*Popcorn – 6 team members in a 20’x20’ area. Each member has a number from one to six. Team members hit ups in order of the numbers and see how many consecutive hits they can make. Then use these variations. Even numbered players go in order followed by the odd, so 2,4,6,1,3,5 is the order. Then odd then even, then odd first then even, regular 1-6 backward. Even then odd backward -6,4,2,5,3,1. Then you can count by multiples of 2,3,4,5,6,7,etc. to see how far they can go.
*4 square Volleyball- crisscross ropes off volleyball standards and have two people in each section of the court with a substitute team waiting to come in.
*tournament play singles
