Hi everyone!
Hoping for some help from all you tennis enthusiasts. Im Student teaching for Elementary (1-6) Phys. Ed. right now and we are going to start an indoor floor tennis unit. I need to come up with ideas in general for what Im going to do these next couple weeks with it, or if anyone cares to get specific. Either way id appreciate it alot! Basically I need 8 total plans and each class is short lasting 20-25 minutes. We do have nets for mini courts which I plan to use but probably not right away.
As of now, the first lesson Im planning to get them in control of the racket by holding it right, and practicing alot of ball control activities such as the bouncing up, on the floor, alternating, tossing the ball and catching with the racket, moving with the ball on it, maybe a relay. The next few lessons im hoping to do some hitting on the wall, partner stuff, and then eventually stuff on the court such as keeping a rally and getting to some competition. I just need good ideas from people concerning those lessons after the first day (which is tommorow this Monday!!) Thanks much
