Peer Teaching – APE
Dr. Cummiskey
Description: Each partner will teach one 20-minute lesson simultaneously, one inclusion and one pull-out
on opposite sides of the tennis nets. The lesson must include at least four parts:
1. Initiation – You are addressing college students
a. Discuss major cognitive, psychomotor, and affective characteristics (not all) from the
Project Inspire website at Texas Women’s University as well as the goals and objectives
for the lesson (2 minutes max)
2. Lesson focus - You are teaching public school students for this part and the remaining parts
a. Assume that you already led a warm-up
3. Lesson focus 2
a. You may have more than two lesson foci
4. Closure (1 minute)
Inclusion Lesson –
1. Farmington Elementary School student, inclusion setting, involved/concerned parents, 7 year old
2nd grader operating at a kindergarten level, mild to moderately disabled. Remember to plan a
regular PE lesson but specify modifications for inclusion appropriate to the student/disability in
the differentiated instruction rows.
a. The teacher from the other inclusion lesson will act as the student with a disability
b. You must teach a movement education lesson (forces, directions, relationships, body parts,
etc) from the guided discovery approach
c. You may request an aide but this is not required
Pull-out Lesson 2. Hartford High School student, small group pull-out class consisting of two similarly disabled
students. Both students have limited home involvement and are 17-year-old 12th graders operating
at a 5th grade level. Remember to plan a lesson specifically targeting long-term and short-term
objectives specified in the IEP.
a. The teacher from the other pull-out lesson will act as the student with a disability.
b. One student will volunteer to be all-time aide for all pull-out classes.
c. One volunteer will act as the other student with a disability for that day.
d. Teach a lifetime activity lesson (see the list of activities provided on page 4)

Videorecorders
To Hand In Prior to Teaching:
1. Completed lesson plan (use BSED lesson plan form posted online in wikiPE)
Each lesson will be digitally videocorded via laptops and webcams. At the conclusion, the video of your
teaching will be copied to a flash drive which you provide. Afterwards, you will complete a reflection
that must be turned in the following class.
Assignment to be completed:
Reflection Paper 1 (5 points) – Due the NEXT CLASS after you teach
Discuss each of the following in SEPARATE NUMBERED paragraphs.
1. What modifications (activity, teaching, equipment) did you make to promote the success of the
inclusion or pull-out student? Relate the modifications directly to the characteristics of the
disability.
2. Identify some areas of strengths and some areas of weakness in your planning and/or execution of
the lesson.
3. What are some insights you gained by watching the video of your teaching?
i. This can be almost anything such as I stand in one spot too much or I provide clear
and concise transitions.
4. What did you find most challenging about this assignment overall.
Length: ¾ to one full page single-spaced, standard margins, 12-inch font
Grading: Based upon adherence to assignment requirements, quality of insights, and language.
Available Equipment
15 minutes prior to class, collect the necessary equipment from the closet. Do not be late because the
equipment closet will close 10 minutes prior to class. If you fail to collect equipment, you will still be
required to teach. You are responsible for taking the equipment to the gym and returning it after class.
The following equipment is normally available but is subject to change. I suggest planning a lesson that
does not need an abundance of equipment.
