Netball lesson plan - positions and decision making (year 7)

This netball lesson is a comprehensive lesson plan for footwork and pivoting in netball for beginners. It will be most appropriate for year 7 netball lessons OR for year 8 lower ability. The lesson includes: learning the names and areas of the position, how to make decisions when passing, game play, AFL quiz quiz trade cards, instructional cards for positions and for centre pass set up (which could also be used as display posters).

This lesson is the 4th in my year 7 series. Find lesson 3 on footwork and pivoting here and the SOW/set of lesson plans for year 7 here.

This was created to save time for busy teachers and is made so teachers with little/no netball experience can teach it just as well as those with lots. You should be able to teach a lesson with minimal preparation and I made these so in most cases they can be just picked up and taught.

This lesson has assessment levels, clear teaching points, afl opportunities, a set of instructional cards, a set of plenary cards and clear explanations of the tasks. There are no timings included as each school can vary in terms of lesson time. They should provide enough tasks for lessons of 40 minutes and above.

The assessment levels are old national curriculum levels but the levels can be easily changed to reflect your own schools assessment models.
