Scaffolding: Where in Sport do you see flexibility? Checking understanding of prior knowledge: Task 2: 1)What do you think Flexibility means? __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ What does the word ‘composition’ means? What do you think when you hear this word. What do you think the picture is showing you? 2)What do you think Body Composition means? __________________________________________ __________________________________________ __________________________________________ You have 5 minutes to complete both questions Success criteria. To know what Flexibility and Body Composition is and be able to describe its importance within sport Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. I do: What is Flexibility?: This is the ability to move all your joints through their full range of movements smoothly. Flexibility is determined by how elastic the ligaments and tendons are at a joint, how strong the muscles are that pull against the joint, and the shape of the bones that form the joint. Most joints are designed to give either strength or flexibility, so the shape of the bones is usually the most important factor in determining flexibility. For example, the shoulder joint is made up of a ball-shaped bone (the end of the humerus) and a cup-shaped bone (the end of the scapula), allowing lots of movement in many directions. Gymnasts have to be flexible so that they can twist their bodies into different shapes when performing routines or vaults. Flexibility can be improved by taking part in lots of stretching exercises on a regular basis. Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. Literacy toolkit: Flexibility-The ability to move all joints fluidly through their complete range of movement Task 3 Can you give 5 examples of sports that need Flexibility. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. You have 8 minutes to complete the question above and the question in the green box. Scaffolding: What sports require you to be flexible? Deepening knowledge: Can you give a specific example for each sport you have chosen of when flexibility is needed. For example Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. How to improve your flexibility Watch the video bellow and name at least three activities that you could perform to improve your Flexibility Component of Fitness. 1.________________________________ 2.__________________________________ 3.___________________________________ Scaffolding: How can you improve your flexibility? Literacy toolkit: Flexibility-The ability to move all joints fluidly through their complete range of movement Deepening knowledge: Pick a sport and describe how flexibility is needed for an athlete to perform well in it. You have 5 minutes to complete the question above and the question in the green box. Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. I do: What is Body Composition?: This is a measure of how much of your body is made up of fat-free mass, of vital organs, and how much is made up of fat. It is important to have a good balance of the two but sports players usually have a greater proportion of muscle. Some sports performers, such as rowers, require a large muscle mass to give them lots of power and strength, but others, such as marathon runners, require a lower muscle mass so that they don’t have to carry ‘extra’ body mass as they are running. Some sports performers, such as sumo wrestlers, even require quite a large mass of body fat to be successful. Everyone is born with a predisposition to a particular body composition, although small changes can be made by varying your diet and the amount/type of exercise that you take part in. The important thing is to have the correct body composition for your sport. Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. Scaffolding: Can you think of another word for Composition? You do: Task 4 Pick a sport and talk about an athletes Body Composition. Explain why they need this Body Composition for their Sport. Literacy toolkit: Body Composition-how much of your body is made up of fat-free mass, of vital organs, and how much is made up of fat. Example: A marathon runner needs a low muscle mass to be successful. This is because they are running a long distance and so can not afford to carry extra mass. Scaffolding: State whether the athlete needs a lot of muscle mass or not to do their sport. You have 5 minutes to complete this question and the question in the green box. Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader. Deepening knowledge: Do all athletes on the same team have the same Body Composition. Explain your thoughts. How to test Body Composition Watch the video bellow and name three activities that you could perform to test your Body Composition of Fitness. 1) 2) 3) Literacy toolkit: Body Composition-how much of your body is made up of fat-free mass, of vital organs, and how much is made up of fat You have 5 minutes to complete this question and the question in the green box. Deepening knowledge: Why is it important for athletes to test their Body Composition? We do: Complete the following questions Which is a good activity that would increase flexibility? A. Basketball B. Golf C. Yoga D. Tennis You have 3 minutes to complete this. Describe your favourite athletes body composition and how that makes them successful. Think about what they have to do in their sport and the requirements it has on them. _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________ Curiosity ~ Independence ~ Reflection Every Student A Leader.
