Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Exemplar: Learners go through general and specific warm-ups. Demonstrate to learners how to jump taking off on one foot and both feet (show video or pictures of the activities). Guide learners to practice the activity as individuals and in a group at their own pace base on individual differences for mastery.
Organise mini long jump and high jump activity by organising obstacles for learners to jump over for height or distance using take-off on one foot or two feet.
Take them through cool down/warm down activity to end your lesson.
