LESSON 5

Developing Instructional Plan for Physical Education

and Health
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, you will be able to:

 Define the meaning of lesson plan;

 Discuss the importance of lesson plan in teaching physical education and health.
 Identify the different parts of the lesson plan
 Evaluate the sample lesson plan.

Introduction
To achieve objectives and long-term goals, an individual should make a plan. A plan
will serve as a guide for any individual to fully understand the nature of the undertaking, set
priorities and targets, stay oriented, identify available and required resources, foresee possible
problems to occur, save time, and fulfill deadlines. Without proper planning, the risk of not
completing the task is possible.
Teachers are not excused from making plans. One of the major roles of teachers is to
prepare an everyday lesson that requires careful and systematic planning. Having a plan will
help a teachers identify the intended objectives, as well as the appropriate instructional
materials needed to achieve the objectives. Further, it will help teachers decide on the
assessment tool to be used in identifying the progress of children. The success of the learning
process depends on how systematically it was prepared and how creative the teacher was in
his/her strategy. The key aim of planning is to increase the efficacy and quality of the teaching
and learning process.

THINK: Defining lesson plan.

A lesson plan is a concise summary of the course instruction by the teacher. It is
considered the learning direction of a lesson. It is a strategy devised by a teacher to guide the
learning of a class. Such specifics can differ depending on the teacher’s preferences, the topics
covered, and the pupils’ needs. The teacher, as the master of planning, needs to identify the
important points of a lesson arranged to be presented to the pupils.
A well-planed lesson plan is important in making the learning process significant
because it enables the teacher to identify the important events that will lead to success in the
implementation of the lesson. Further, it will help teachers focus on the important skills that
pupils need to learn and acquire.

Advantages of Lesson Planning

It is indeed true that having a lesson plan is beneficial for classroom teachers. The
following are the advantages of a lesson plan for teachers:
 1. It promotes self-confidence in the teacher.
2. It helps the teacher keep track on the sequence of the lessons.
3. It allows the teacher to reflect and improve his/her teaching for the future.
4. It keeps teaching matters organized in a time frame.
5. It helps the teacher to consider the characteristics of pupils in the preparation of
activities.
6. It provides an opportunity for the teacher to anticipate possible problems in the
execution of the lesson.
7. It inspires the teacher to formulate and ask relevant questions.
8. It allows the teacher to collect, create, and utilize appropriate materials for the learning
process.
9. It helps the teacher evaluate the teaching-learning process.
10. It guides teachers to assess if the learning objective is achieved.

Disadvantages of Lesson Planning

On the other hand, the following are the disadvantages of lesson planning:
1. It does allow the teacher to work independently, and it compromises flexibility.
2. It makes simple matters complicated.
3. It allows the possibility of making the teaching process challenging.

Elements of Lesson Plan

In writing a lesson plan, a teacher should consider essential elements to ensure that the
lesson plan is focused and designed to meet the needs of all children. The following are the
elements of the lesson plan:
1. Learning Objectives
The teacher should determine the learning objectives that he/she wants to
achieve. Determining the objectives can be done based on the attributes of the pupils
and what is stated in the curriculum. In establishing objectives, a teacher should select
and rank the concepts based on their importance.
2. Activities
These are the learning experiences provided by the teacher. A variety of activities
will enable the teachers to have a thorough explanation of the concept being taught, and
using different activities can reach a wide range of learning styles. Activities to be
prepared and offered to the pupils must be fun, engaging, enjoyable, and related to a
real-world situation.
3. Assessment Tool
Assessment is an important part of the lesson for both the teacher and the pupils. This
helps teachers identify the progress of the pupils. Appropriate assessment tools must be
properly selected by the teacher to evaluate what is needed to be evaluated. Also,
assessment can be used by the teachers to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the
teaching process through teacher’s reflection.
Lesson Plan and Its Parts
The lesson plan has various parts. Every part corresponds to the different domains to be
developed as the presentation of the lesson is being done. Each part is important and must be
congruent to each other based on the set of objectives.
1. Setting Objectives
The first step that a teacher should do is to identify the learning objectives. The
objectives will serve as the roadmap to the teacher on what the pupils must learn
and the skills to be developed at the end of the lesson. The stated objectives should
have anchored on the three domains that need to be developed: cognitive, affective,
and psychomotor. The teacher can use available taxonomy in creating specific,
measurable, attainable, result-oriented, and time-bounded objectives.
2. Stating the Subject Matter
This part involves the content and concept that the teacher has to present to the
class. Other elements of this part include references, materials, and skill. Stating the
reference used is important to validate the concept, that is involved in the lessons.
Furthermore, a teacher must use materials that are appropriate and can motivate the
pupils.
3. Procedure
This part is considered as the body of the lesson plan. The subparts of the procedure
are the following:
a. Preliminary Activities – This is daily routine of the class. It includes
greetings, prayers, checking of attendance, community songs, and other
activities that establish rapport between the teachers and pupils.
b. Review – This part serves as an activity to check if the pupils can recall what
they have learned in the past lesson.
c. Motivation – This is the part where the teacher provides activities that will
arouse the pupils’ interests or an activity that is connected to the present
lesson. In motivation, teachers can use songs, stories, dance, games, or
presenting pictures, videos, puzzles, or raising intriguing questions.
d. Presentation - The teacher presents a new lesson by stating a linking
statement between the motor activity and its relevance to the lesson to be
discussed.
e. Discussion – This is the most essential part of the procedure. It is where the
teacher asks quality questions that enable the pupils to come up with the
expected concepts. The teacher may use either inductive or deductive
methods when presenting the lesson by giving questions.
f. Generalization – This part is where the pupils give the concepts of the lesson
in the form of a statement. Since the entire information gained should be
recapitulated and given emphasis, this phase requires critical thought.
g. Application – The teacher gives an activity wherein the pupils can apply
what they have learned from the lessons. Teachers may use varied activities
such as making experiments, projects, collaborative work, or activities
concerning multiple intelligence and others.
4. Evaluation
The teacher gives an assessment based on the concept learned. This is a way of
evaluating the progress of children and how much they understood the lesson. Essential
information is given to teachers through the use of evaluation. Through using
 appropriate classroom assessment strategies and techniques, teacher can increase their
pupil’s motivation and show them how well they have learned the language.
5. Assignment
The assignment is an activity that pupils need to do after class at their home. It aims to
help reinforce what they have learned inside the classroom or to gather other
information beyond what was taught in the class.

What is physical fitness? Let us find out.

E. Discussion
Physical fitness is when you perform a daily
task without getting tired easily and still
have the energy to enjoy other activities.
Physical activities have two types:
Health-related and skills-related
components.
Health-related components are factors that
show how well the system of your body
works.

1. Muscular Strength – the amount of

force your muscle can produce.
2. Muscular Endurance – How long
your muscles can work for without
getting fatigued.
3. Flexibility – the ability of a join or
series of joints to move fully in a wide
range of motion.
4. Body Composition – the amount of
body fat mass that are storing in
comparison to fat-free mass, which
made up of organs, muscles, bones
etc.
5. Cardiovascular Endurance – the
body’s ability to perform aerobic
exercise for an extended period. It
relies on the heart, lungs, and blood
 vessel to work in unison to ensure the
proper transportation of oxygen and
nutrients to tissues within the body,
as well as removing metabolic waste.

Skill-related components are the factors that

form the basis for a successful activity.
1. Power – the ability to perform
strength performances quickly.
2. Speed - the ability to put body parts
into motion quickly.
3. Agility – the ability to change the
position of the body quickly and
control the movement.
4. Coordination – the ability to use two
or more body parts together.
5. Balance – the ability to maintain the
body’s center of mass above the base
of support.
6. Reaction Time – the time taken to
respond to a stimulus.

What is physical fitness again?
