ASSESSMENT RUBRIC

 

Objective: Dribble while jogging and weaving

Hockey Unit | Level 13

TECHNIQUE
Today we are going to learn how to dribble while jogging and weaving.

IMPORTANCE
Dribbling while jogging and weaving is important because it helps you practice keeping the ball in front of your body while moving. Dribbling while jogging and weaving is the first practice step to dribbling around a defender.

VOCABULARY
Weave:
to turn from side to side in order to avoid objects.

When dribbling while jogging and weaving, it is important to:

1. Bend your knees and lean forward.

2. Keep the ball close to your body.

3. Keep your hands in front of your body.

 

4. Use both sides of the hockey stick to control the ball.

 

PRACTICE

  1. Set up four courses of cones. I will divide the class into four groups. Line up single file behind your group's marker cone. When I say, "GO!" the first person in line will jog and weave around each cone in the pattern. The next person in line can go after the first person reaches the first cone. When you get to the end, pick up your ball and return to the end of your line.
  2. Repeat as many times as needed.

STORYLINE
Today we are playing Weaving Races II. Your goal is to dribble while jogging and weaving and then shoot on goal.

INSTRUCTIONS

  • I will divide the class into four teams.
  • Before the game begins, line up single file behind your team’s marker cone.
  • When I say, "GO!" the first person in line will dribble in weaving pattern and then shoot on goal.
  • I will be the goalie.
  • Once you have shot on goal, retrieve your ball and get back in line.  
  • We will begin a new game once everyone has had a shot on goal.
 

Game 1: Play as indicated above. Start with one cone in the weaving pattern.
Game 2: Each round, add an additional cone in the weaving pattern students must dribble to.
Variation: Add two hula-hoops towards the goal. Select two students to be defenders. Defenders must stay inside the hula-hoop at all times.
Exit Ticket: Teacher lays out cones for students to weave around as they dribble while jogging as they go to put their equipment away.

 

TEACHING TIPS

  • Approach:
    • If students cannot dribble long distances, give them the option pick up their ball and walk closer to the goal.
    • Consider having no goalie during the first rounds of the game.
  • ELL Accommodation: 
    • Post labeled pictures of skills and game play.
    • Partner with proficient English speakers for directions/modeling and reflections.
  • SpEd Accommodation: 
    • Set individual goals for physical or behavioral modifications. 
    • Allow students to demonstrate skill one-on-one with teacher.
    • Allow students extra time to master the skill.
  • Reflection: 
    • Where should your hands be relative to your body while dribbling?
    • How do you think you can get better at dribbling while jogging and weaving?
