Lesson Plan for Primary 1 - Physical and Health Education - Safety Rules Of Simple Jump

### Lesson Plan: Safety Rules of Simple Jumping Activities **Grade Level:** Primary 1 **Subject:** Physical and Health Education **Duration:** 45 minutes **Topic:** Safety Rules of Simple Jumping Activities **Objectives:** 1. Students will understand and be able to list basic safety rules for jumping activities. 2. Students will demonstrate proper techniques for jumping safely. 3. Students will recognize the importance of following safety rules to avoid injuries. **Materials:** - Soft mats or gymnastic padding - Cones or markers - Visual aids (e.g., charts illustrating safe jumping techniques) - Whistle - First aid kit (for demonstration purposes) **Lesson Plan:** 1. **Introduction (5 minutes):** - Greet the students and introduce the topic: "Today, we are going to learn about safety rules for jumping activities." - Begin with a simple discussion: "Who likes to jump? Where do you like to jump?" - Explain why safety is important when jumping: "Jumping can be fun, but we need to be safe to avoid getting hurt." 2. **Warm-Up (10 minutes):** - Lead students in a light warm-up routine to prepare their muscles for jumping. - Start with simple stretches (e.g., reaching for the sky, touching toes). - Follow with dynamic movements (e.g., marching in place, arm circles). - Finish with gentle jogging in place or around the gym. 3. **Teaching the Safety Rules (10 minutes):** - Present visual aids that demonstrate safe jumping practices. - Discuss each safety rule and demonstrate: 1. **Rule 1:** Always look where you are jumping. 2. **Rule 2:** Jump on soft and safe surfaces like mats. 3. **Rule 3:** Bend your knees when landing to absorb the impact. 4. **Rule 4:** Keep your arms out to balance yourself when you jump. 5. **Rule 5:** Take turns and wait for your turn to avoid collisions. 6. **Rule 6:** Listen to instructions from the teacher. 4. **Activity: Practicing Safe Jumping (15 minutes):** - Set up several stations around the gym with different jumping activities (e.g., jumping over a rope, jumping from a low step, jumping in and out of hoops). - Divide students into small groups and rotate them through each station. - Monitor and provide feedback, ensuring that students follow safety rules and use proper techniques. 5. **Cool Down and Reflection (5 minutes):** - Lead students in a cool-down routine with stretches and deep breathing exercises. - Gather the students and ask: - "What safety rule did you think was the most important?" - "How did you feel when you followed the safety rules while jumping?" - Reinforce the connection between safety and fun: "When we follow the safety rules, we can have more fun because no one gets hurt." 6. **Conclusion (5 minutes):** - Summarize the key points of the lesson: "Today, we learned how to jump safely by following important safety rules." - Remind students to always practice these safety rules, whether in PE class, at home, or on the playground. - Thank the students for their participation and dismiss them. **Assessment:** - Observe students during activities to ensure they are following safety rules and using proper jumping techniques. - Ask questions during the reflection segment to gauge understanding of the safety rules. **Follow-Up:** - In the next class, review the safety rules briefly and introduce a new set of jumping activities to reinforce the importance of safety. **Notes:** - Always have a first aid kit readily available during physical education activities. - Encourage positive reinforcement and praise students who demonstrate good understanding and adherence to the safety rules.
