1. Unit Volleyball: Skill Development, Personal Goals, and Collaboration

2. Grade Level 10th grade — Team & Lifetime Activities

3. Standard Outcome

This lesson aligns :

• Standard 1:  Create or modify practice plans using feedback about skill performance.

• Standard 3:  Demonstrate collaboration, cooperation, and leadership through partner practice and supportive feedback.

4. Ideal Student Response

“I want to improve my forearm passing because I have trouble controlling where the ball goes. I found a partner passing drill that will help me practice my platform and aim. My goal is to increase from 3 to 6 successful passes out of 10. If I still need help, I will ask my teacher or partner to watch my technique and suggest one change.”

5. Content Objective

Students will use their volleyball skill assessment to select a skill, research and practice a relevant drill, and evaluate progress toward a measurable goal while working cooperatively with a partner.

6. Language Objective

Students will explain and justify their drill choice orally to a partner and in writing on their worksheet, using volleyball vocabulary, assessment results, and cause-and-effect language such as “because” and “if…then.”

Sentence stems:

• “I chose this drill because…”

• “My starting result was ___. My goal is ___.”

• “If I still need help, then I will…”

7. How I Would Assess These Objectives

• Content: Review the research worksheet and attached drill, observe technique and cooperation, and compare starting and final results under the same conditions.

• Language: Listen to partner explanations and review written responses for accurate vocabulary, a clear reason for the drill choice, and evidence supporting their reflection.

• Exit ticket: “What does your practice evidence show, and what will you do next?”

Combined Content Language Objective

“I will select and practice a drill for my chosen volleyball skill and explain how it supports my goal, using volleyball vocabulary and assessment evidence in a written plan and partner discussion.”
