ASSESSMENT RUBRIC

Objective: Create a long jump rope routine

Jumping Unit | Level 25

TECHNIQUE
Today we are going to learn how to create a long jump rope routine.

IMPORTANCE
Jumping a long jump rope with is important because it helps you practice jumping to a rhythm set by others.

VOCABULARY
Long jump rope: a rope that requires two people to turn the rope while one or more people jump the rope.
Routine: a set sequence in a performance.

When creating a long jump rope routine, it is important to:

PRACTICE:

1. (Choose two capable students to be the first turners.) Form a line behind the marker cone. One at a time, run into the jump rope, make a couple jumps and exit through to the other side. Line up behind the other marker cone to start a new line.  Everyone has two tries. The turners can count "1-2-3" aloud so that you know when to go. When all of you have gone from the first line, I will choose two new turners.

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Showtime. In this game, the objective is to work with your group, using your creativity, to create a long jump rope routine.  

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class into groups of four.
• With your group, you will create a routine that incorporates five different moves (e.g., hop on one foot, touch the ground, turn around).
• After your group has created the routine, each group member will have a turn to perform the jump rope routine.
• Be sure to also have the rope turners take a turn to perform the routine.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Consider marking jump rope stations with a dot or cone so that groups are spaced out properly.
• 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. 
  • Model skills in a small group.
  • Allow students to demonstrate skill one-on-one with teacher.
  • Allow students extra time to master the skill.
  • Use standards from previous grade levels to measure growth and progress.
• Reflection:
  • What is a routine?
  • What steps did you take to make sure your routine worked from beginning to end?
  • What happens when you don't follow through with your routine?
  • Are you able to exit the long jump rope efficiently?

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Match. In this game, the objective is to have all of your group members add a move to create a long jump rope routine.  

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class into groups of six.
• Ro Sham Bo with your group to decide who will be the rope turners.
• When I say, “GO!” the first student will enter the turning rope and perform one move (e.g., hop one foot, touch the ground or turn around) then exit, without touching the rope.
• The next student to enter the rope must repeat the moves performed by the previous students then add their own to the routine.
• If a student touches the rope or forgets a move in the routine, he/she must go back to the end of the line and try again. 
• Switch with the rope turners after everyone in the group has added a move to the routine.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Consider marking jumping stations with a dot or cone so that groups are spaced out properly.
• ELL Accommodation:
  • Post labeled pictures of skills and game play.
  • Partner with proficient English speakers for directions/modeling and reflections.
• SpEd Accommodation:

  • Model skills in a small group.
  • Allow students to demonstrate skill one-on-one with teacher.
  • Allow students extra time to master the skill.
  • Use standards from previous grade levels to measure growth and progress.
• Reflection:
  • What is a routine?
  • What steps did you take to make sure your routine worked from beginning to end?
  • What happens when you don't follow through with your routine?
  • Are you able to exit the long jump rope efficiently?

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Jump Rope Freeze. In this game, your objective is to create a long jump rope routine while the music is playing but to quickly freeze as soon as the music stops.

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class in into teams of three.
• Before the game begins, Ro Sham Bo to decide who will jump first.
• When I say, “GO!” I will start playing the music. Whoever is jumping will begin performing a variety of moves or dance moves (e.g., hop on one foot, turn around, touch the ground).  
• When the music stops, everyone must freeze including the rope turners.
• If you or a teammate is still moving when the music stops then your team is eliminated.
• Before the music resumes, have a new teammate jump.
• We will begin a new game when one team is left.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Call jailbreaks so teams are waiting too long to rejoin 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. 
  • Model skills in a small group.
  • Allow students to demonstrate skill one-on-one with teacher.
  • Allow students extra time to master the skill.
  • Use standards from previous grade levels to measure growth and progress.
• Reflection:
  • What is a routine?
  • What steps did you take to make sure your routine worked from beginning to end?
  • What happens when you don't follow through with your routine?
  • Are you able to exit the long jump rope efficiently?
