Sport leadership - planning, communicating and motivating.
Unit 1
Planning a lesson before hand is very important in many ways. There are many things that need to be considered while planning a session. The most important thing is the aim and purpose of the lesson, you need to have a clear idea of what the objective of the lesson is so the students know what is being taught, also the goals that need to be achieved at the end of the lesson. Whilst planning a lesson you need to think of the age group of the student this will help you to know the type and level of warm-up and skills should be done in the lessons. Other factors are how many people, what level there at, where the lesson is taking place and equipment. If these factors are in a plan then you are likely to have a successful lesson. Also to evaluate the lesson so you can improve next time, as there is always space for improvement. I feel I needed to improve on my communication skills.
Unit 2
Communication skills include verbal, non-verbal and use of whistle. Whilst teaching a lesson it is important to communicate with pupils in an appropriate manner. When you verbally communicate you need to make sure you Phrase your words clearly and positively. Try to have a basic outline of what you are going to say, you have to think before you use your words so the student know you are well prepared and will not lose concentration. Make sure you speak in a loud voice so all students can hear as a result listen carefully to you, whilst speaking make sure you have pauses and not speaking all in one go, also do not add an "ah", "um" as the student will take advantage as they think you are nervous. In addition avoid careless language or abusive language, try to make your body language be enthusiastic and assertive. When using non-verbal communication facial expressions should be used well to get attention of the students. Also be careful on the space between the students an you, such as standing close or being to far, keep eye contact with students and try having some humour. When using a whistle makes sure you use it appropriately, like three sharp blows to stop a game, also do not overuse it or use it to less. Demonstration I feel I quite simple, I find it enjoyable to explain the demonstration to them, I explain it thouroughly and most of the time they know exactly what to do. However I feel I need to improve my whistle use, as I tend to do it too quietly.
