ASSESSMENT RUBRIC

Objective: Dribble using an outside-outside pattern

Soccer Unit | Level 22

TECHNIQUE
Today we are going to learn how to dribble using an outside-outside pattern.

IMPORTANCE
Dribbling using an outside-outside pattern is important because it improves your rhythm and ability to use different parts of your feet while controlling the ball.

VOCABULARY
Alternate: occur in turn, time after time.

When dribbling using an outside-outside pattern, it is important to:

PRACTICE

1. Line up on the baseline shoulder-to-shoulder. Put your ball on the ground in the control position. When I say, “GO!” dribble with both feet, only using an outside-outside pattern, to the midline and back.
2. Repeat as many times as needed.

STORYLINE
Today we are playing Moving Towers IV. Your goal is to dribble using an outside-outside pattern to collect the necessary supplies and build a tower at the other end of the field. 

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class into two teams.
• Before the game begins, you must line up single file with your ball behind your team’s dot.
• When I say, “GO!” dribble to each hula-hoop, using only your outside foot, and pick up a tall and short cone.
• When you reach the last hula-hoop, construct your tower by putting the short cone on top of the tall cone.
• As soon as a teammate has reached the last hula-hoop, the next teammate may go.
• We will begin a new round once everyone has constructed a tower.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • To increase participation and limit wait time, put the hula-hoops closer together.
  • Remind students they should be dribbling and not kicking the ball far forward. Students should not be more than two feet away from their ball.
• 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: 
  • What should your ankle and toes look like when dribbling the ball?
  • What was most challenging about using the outside-outside dribbling pattern?

STORYLINE
Today we are playing Soccer Tag. Your goal is to dribble using an outside-outside pattern to avoid being tagged by the blob (tagger) and be the last one with your soccer ball.   

INSTRUCTIONS

• Before the game begins, line up shoulder-to-shoulder on the baseline with your ball. 
• When I say, “GO!” dribble anywhere inside the boundary cones using an outside-outside pattern. 
• The blob will try and kick your ball out-of-bounds. 
• If your ball goes out-of-bounds, you become part of the blob and must link arms or hold hands.
• We will begin a new game when there is only one student left.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Remind students to keep their heads up while dribbling to avoid bumping into others.
• 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.

STORYLINE
Today we are playing Troll Bridge II. In this game, you are all billy goats in search of green grass to eat but a troll (tagger) has stopped you from crossing the bridge. Your goal is to dribble using an outside-outside pattern to avoid being tagged by the troll.      

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will select a troll.  
• Before the game begins, spread out in the field with your ball.  
• When I say, “GO!” you may dribble anywhere in the field within the boundary cones using an outside-outside pattern.  
• If you are tagged or go out of bounds, you must hold your ball over your head and stand in a straddle to form a troll bridge.
• To become unfrozen another teammate must kick their ball through your bridge.
• We will begin a new round when I select a new troll.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Remind students to keep their head up while dribbling to avoid bumping into others.
