HEALTH AND SAFETY THROUGHOUT THIS LESSON
The teacher is to use the All throw, all retrieve command after
having checked that students are not throwing toward each
other.
When the pupils have thrown. They must wait until every one has
thrown and on teachers command must retrieve. Must walk and not
run
Pupils that are left handed throw first Use correct weights
Pupils should always stand in a line facing the same way. When
practicing for distance, or in competitive situations students
should stand behind the thrower. Place left handers to the side
All students must retrieve their Discuss at the end, when
everyone has thrown.
Make a range of Discuss available of varied weights for
students.
Ask pupils if they have any injuries
Make sure they are warmed up and stretched

Lesson: Sprint Start from blocks Year: 9 Group:
Ability: Period:
Duration: w/cTotal No.: M: F:
SEN:
Objectives:
To be able to perform a technically correct start using starting
blocks. To be able begin a sprint race from a set of blocks. To
understand how using blocks benefits the sprinter and be able to
describe in simple mechanical terms why remaining low from the
blocks for the first leg of a sprint improves acceleration.
ActivityDescription Objectives(Teaching
Points(Differentiation
Warm UpThe pairs chosen last lesson lead the warm upTo be able
to lead the group through heart raising exercises.- listen to and
follow instructions of those leading the warm-up( Ask students how
they could make warm up easy / harder / intense
Pair Stretching
Students arranged in a circle. Teacher leads through series of
stretches and questions students as to what muscles we were
stretching.To understand the importance of stretching at the start
of the session.
To know the names of major muscles. To carry out in pairs
correct stretching routines safely.Hold stretches for 8
seconds.
No bouncing.( Pupils perform their own stretches
Sprint Start from blocks- Teacher shows students how to measure
blocks and set them up according to individual size and shape.
To understand how using blocks benefits the sprinter and be able
to describe in simple mechanical terms why remaining low from the
blocks for the first leg of a sprint improves acceleration.
To know the tactics performed in the different types of sprint
races
To know and understand the importance of power and drive from
the blocks and be able to perform this with the races
To be able to monitor the acceleration and deceleration of a
sprinter at set times.
To be able to set up a set of blocks depending on the shape and
size of the performer.
To be able to perform a technically correct start using starting
blocks.
To be able begin a sprint race from a set of blocks.
To know and understand the laws regarding starts and the blocks
Marks: - Feet correctly located in the blocks
- Fingers behind the line and form a high bridge
- Hands evenly positioned slightly wider than shoulder width
- Shoulders back and vertically above or slightly forward of the
hands
- Arms straight but not locked
- Head and neck in line with the spine
- Eyes focused on the track (1 to 2 metres ahead)
- Gentle breathing
- Face and neck muscles relaxed

and neck in line with the spine
- Eyes focused on the track one or two metres ahead
- Shoulders vertically above or slightly forward of the
hands
- Front leg knee angle approx. 90*
- Rear leg knee angle approx. 120 *
- Feet pushed hard back into the blocks
GO: DRIVE UP AND AWAY WITH LEGS
- ESTABLISH CADENCE AND TECHNIQUE
- Drive all the way through to the line( Pupils establish the
distances between blocks and their fit
- Partner sprint races over 20 metres. One partner uses blocks,
the other starts in the full crouch position but without
blocks.
( Listen to discussions about the methods and techniques
used
- Sprint from blocks for 3, 5, 7 and 10 seconds. Have a partner
place a cone where you are after 3, 5, 7 and 10 seconds. ( Increase
distance and time
( Set targets
Discuss the changes in distance between the cones and refer to
acceleration and deceleration.
- 100-metre; 200m & 400m sprint races with student
officials.NB: Blocks correctly positioned in the lane (200m/400m at
a tangent to the curve)
Cool DownPupils perform their own cool down and stretching
techniquesTo understand why you Cool Down and do rhythmical
movement after exercise- Gentle walking speed.

- Training shoes are to be fastened properly.
- Ensure students are fully warmed up before using the blocks.-
Stress the importance of running slightly to the side of the person
in front while passing the baton so as not to trip them up
- Ensure students are properly warmed up at the start of the
