LESSON EVALUATION
Assessment of Lesson Objectives and Suggestions for Improvement:
At the conclusion of the lesson, the teacher should consider the following –

- Did the students have adequate time and situations to practice the skills in order to see progress and
improvement?
- Were the activities appropriate for the class?
- Were all students able to participate fully? Were there appropriate extensions in place for students struggling
or succeeding in the activities?
- Did the students actively participate in the activities? Could changes be made to the design of the activities or
lesson in order to engage students more?

Teacher self-reflection and self-evaluation:
At the conclusion of the lesson, the teacher should reflect on the following –

- What went well and how can I utilise that in the future?
- Did the students participate in all activities, why/why not?
- Was I clear in my presentation of the instructions and demonstrations – how could I improve?
- Were there any issues with the equipment, would other items have worked better?
- Did the students achieve the lesson objectives – what did they take away from the lesson?
- Were there any times in which student behavior was poor – why was this?
- Did the students enjoy the lesson – how could the experience be more positive for them?

Organisation:
- The tagger attempts to
catch other players by

- All caught players collect a
ball and become taggers

- Last player caught wins

- Students to move into groups of 3.
- Take 2 cones, a bat, and a ball each.
- Set up the activity according to teacher’s instructions.
- One batter, one fielder between the cones, and one backstop.

- Students move into 3 groups of 10.
- Each group to get 8 cones, 2 wickets, 6 balls, and one bat.
- Move into instructed playing area and set up.
2:42 Progressions: Rapid Fire: Resources:
- Decrease playing area - The object of the game is - 24 cones

- Increase distance to score a run team. Fielders cannot - 18 balls
move forward of the goals
(Safety Zone) until the last - 6 wickets
- Allow only underarm throwing
ball is hit
Organisation / LEST:
- Width of goals (increase/decrease) - The goals should be
approximately 20m from
the batters. (This will vary
- Impose time limits with age/ability)
- Each time the ball passes
- Have scoring zones for bonus runs through the goals the
batter scores 4
- Fielding team can place a hoop to - Batter has 6 hits
return balls to in the field rather than
back on tees - After the last ball is hit the
batter runs between A – B
or C – D scoring single
runs to be added to those
acquired from hitting
through the goals
- To stop the batter from
running the fielders must
retrieve the balls and put
them back on the tees in
the designated area
- When all players from one
team have batted, the
team’s reverse roles
KTP’S
- Step, Swing, Strike
- Look at field, shot selection.

2:55 Lesson Closure: (Review lesson objectives with students)

Teacher directs questions at several students:
- “What was the most enjoyable part of today’s lesson?”
- “What did you learn today?”
- “What do you need to remember when picking up a rolling ball?”
- “What do you need to remember when doing an underarm throw?”
- “Why do we need to communicate with our peers when fielding?”
- “What do you need to consider when batting?”
- Ask particular students to demonstrate the skills and point out their correct technique.

Transition: (What needs to happen prior to the next lesson?)

 Prepare activities that utilize the rules of cricket, so students can continue to build their
knowledge of the game
 Notes need to be written down for informal assessment on ability of students

Assessment: (Were the lesson objectives met? How will these be judged?)
Formative assessment
Students will be informally assessed on their fielding including skills such as picking up the ball and
batting.

How
Observational checklist – Time effective and useful way of assessing movement skills. The teacher will
move around to the groups of students making an assessment on their performance.
