Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Pair/individual learning Footwork: Describe and demonstrate the footwork to learners. Guide learners to simulate the basic two-step approach (right-left for right-handed lay-ups, left-right for left-handed lay-ups). If physical demonstration is not be enough, use videos to aid the learning.
Shooting technique: Learners practice the proper grip, finger placement and release for a lay-up.
Use of backboard: Explain how to aim for the square on the backboard to guide the shot. Use physical markers to demonstrate the correct target.

Assessment (1.1.4.AS.8): Level 2: Describe how a lay-up is executed. Level 3: Demonstrate how a lay-up is executed.
