2) Dr. Ferry spent much of the beginning of the semester discussing about various curricular models (Dance Education, Sport Education, Fitness Education, Outdoor/Adventure). Pick one and explain in detail your plans for integrating this model in your teaching. Specifically, why you are going to include it, how you will overcome any perceived/potential barriers (including 3 specific detailed hypothetical examples), and 5 specific teaching/curricular items you will make sure you address/ include when you teach this unit.

I have chosen to use the sport education model not only because I feel like it incorporates essential parts of a students development such as being a team player, organization as well as skill proficiency, but …show more content…
For example I would assigned two schools out of the pool of schools that are available for the semester to each students. Each student has to observe one school for 7h and then switches school for the other 7 1/2h. One student can only observe one school at a time, but then switches schools with another student for the final 7 1/2h. This way each students gets to experience two schools and two different styles. In an ideal world that would mean one middle and one high school, but I know how difficult that would be. Another thing I could think of is only applicable for the FALL semesters, but we us students tend to do things last minute, and having an assignment due on the Monday after Thanksgiving is “a students nightmare”, just because we don’t do them in a timely manner. So in my personal opinion I would let students turn in the assignment before Thanksgiving break or maybe midweek after the break. Once again that is just my thought, generally speaking. Furthermore I liked that we had so many opportunities to teach and get feedback. I actually liked the unit plan assignment, because I think it taught me in detail and volume what to do and what to think of. I also like the fact that we are able to rewrite things and basically learn from our mistakes. Feedback is so important, in order to progress and become better as a person or
