Creating a Unit Intro. in SMART Notebook

 * 1) After viewing the video, you should have an understanding of the necessity of solid, engaging, and useful unit introductions for elementary physical education classes. Please view the following example of a unit introduction using the SMART Notebook software.



2. Your task is to choose a unit of instruction or skill theme and create an introduction for the unit that you would use in your classroom. Please create 2 pages, and be as creative as possible. You may choose any grade (K-5), and any unit or skill theme. (EDTC Students: Please click the following link, which will take you to the Resources page. Once there, you'll see a document (titled "Activity 1 Resource") with a list of units of instruction and "skill themes" that are used in elementary physical education. You may choose any one you would like.)

3. When your page is finished, please save it to your computer, as it will need to be submitted at the bottom of this wiki page at the end of the session.

Creating a Content Page with SMART Notebook

 * 1) Your second task is to create a content page for the same unit you chose in Activity 1. The goal of this activity is for you to create a different page that could be used later within your unit or skill theme. (EDTC Students: Search for lessons about your unit on the Internet to find more information in which you could use for a content page for later within your unit or skill theme choice.)

Think, Pair, and Share Additional SMART Board Uses in PE

 * 1) For your final task, you need to get into groups of 2-3 ( disregard, EDTC members ), and you will each be given a piece of chart paper.
 * 2) On the chart paper, and with your partner or group, brainstorm ideas for additional content pages to create using the SMART Notebook to reinforce skills cues, terminology, and strategies for the unit of instruction of your choice.
 * 3) Post your findings and suggestions in the discussion area below at the bottom of the wiki.
