Lesson Focus	Demonstrate the ability to use basic skills in performing individual and team sports (e.g., table tennis, netball, etc)
Previous Knowledge	Learners recall related ideas, vocabulary or experiences from earlier lessons and everyday contexts.
Lesson Objective(s)	Describe the key idea in: Demonstrate the ability to use basic skills in performing individual and team sports (e.g., table tennis, netball, etc) Apply the idea through guided and independent learning activities. Demonstrate understanding through oral responses, written work or practical performance.
Essential Question(s)	What knowledge, skill, rule or health principle is central to this learning task? How can the skill or concept be applied safely, inclusively and effectively? What evidence can be used to evaluate performance, choices or improvement?
Pedagogical Strategies	Activity-Based Learning Demonstration and Guided Practice Collaborative Learning Problem-Based Learning Role Play/Simulation Reflection and Peer Feedback
Teaching & Learning Resources	Safe activity space/classroom Sport/PE equipment appropriate to the curriculum focus Cones/markers or locally available substitutes Charts/posters/role cards ICT/video resources where available Learners' notebooks
Key Notes on Differentiation
Content	Use visuals, demonstrations, vocabulary prompts, worked examples or task cards for learners who need scaffolding. Extend learners who are ready with deeper analysis, design, investigation, leadership or independent application tasks.
Process	Move from teacher modelling to guided collaborative practice and individual application. Use mixed-ability groupings and adaptations so learners can participate meaningfully while still providing individual evidence of learning.
Product	Accept curriculum-appropriate evidence such as calculations, graphs, lab records, demonstrations, skill performance, plans, posters, portfolios, role-play or presentations. Assess understanding/application, accuracy or technique, reasoning, communication, safety and reflection as appropriate.
Success Criteria	Learners use correct subject vocabulary. Learners complete the main task with reasonable accuracy. Learners explain or demonstrate how the concept applies in a new situation.
Homework	Complete a short application task connected to the week's learning indicator.

Share prior knowledge, listen to peers and record the lesson question in their notebooks.	Not provided.
Activity 115 minutes	Explain use basic skills in performing individual and team sports (e.g., table tennis, netball, etc), highlighting relevant techniques, safety points and health benefits.	Observe, answer safety questions and prepare for the practice or analysis task.	Ask learners to state one safety rule, technique point or health benefit.
Activity 220 minutes	Guide learners to practise, classify, role-play or analyse a situation related to use basic skills in performing individual and team sports (e.g., table tennis, netball, etc).	Practise or analyse in groups while following safety rules and giving feedback.	Observe performance or group responses for safe practice and correct explanation.
Activity 310 minutes	Ask learners to apply use basic skills in performing individual and team sports (e.g., table tennis, netball, etc) to a personal fitness, safety or sports-participation choice.	Apply the lesson to a realistic health, fitness or sport decision and explain it.	Use a short reflection to check application beyond the lesson activity.

Lesson Closure
