Differentiated Instruction of Unit Plan

Students will be allowed to choose groups for the skill based part of class
Students will be randomly assigned teams for the games section of class until the teacher
has enough knowledge of student skill level to properly give even teams
As the teacher shows the skill that the class will need to perform, the teacher will also tell
it
The teacher will ask for questions after finished explaining/showing the skill
As students practice, the teacher will walk around to help any individuals who need help
learning the skill
Mostly sandwich feedback will be used depending on the student getting the feedback
Student demonstrators will rarely be used because the teacher should be able to do skill
Student demonstrators will only be used if multiple people are needed for a skill to be
demonstrated. (i.e. passing)

scenarios. It is also another learning style because it is visual. It will
show the students a faster paced example.
YouTube
Showing YouTube videos can specify a certain play or skill so students can watch and
rewind to copy the form used.
Camera
With parental consent
The teacher can film students and then show them the skill they are trying to do and
give direct feedback about the skill and ways to improve. The teacher
can pause and rewind the skill performed by the student to directly
point out issue and then give ideas to fix it.
iPad
Mobile technology to be able to show students videos online so they can mimic, film
students to improve form, and film students for skills test for an in
depth evaluation.
SmartBoard
Using a SmartBoard can allow the teacher to draw plays on the screen for students,
quickly erase anything not needed on the screen, and allow the teacher
to highlight plays online and draw on a screen that is on YouTube.
