This pack follows on from the Year 7 Unit of six lessons for pupils who are learning the basics of tennis using modified Mini Tennis equipment.
The six lessons are written to the National Curriculum Range and Content for Outwitting Opponents.
They contain activities and exercises which teach the principles and skills of tennis in a logical and progressive way.
The Unit takes place outdoor in the summer term and can be adapted to incorporate different teaching approaches to accommodate different learning styles and abilities.
The content of the lessons addresses the National Curriculum Key Concepts that underpin the study of PE.
Each lesson outlines the Learning Outcomes and relevant Key Processes being taught, lesson structure and relevant resources to be used.
This block of six lessons covers the material which progresses at Level 5 to Level 6 of the National Curriculum Attainment Levels described in the Tennis Foundation’s resource ‘Assessing Ability’.
