PE Lesson Plan Teachers Name: Anthony Vottari
Date: 2/3/2018 Topic: Fatigue and Performance
Year Level: 11 Performance Description:
Students examine the practical application of human
physical skills and analyse the personal, community,
and global issues that surround the role of human
physical activity in society. Students learn mainly
through physical activity in a way that promotes
immediate as well as long-term benefits to
themselves and society. Physical Education is an
experiential subject in which students explore their
physical capacities and investigate the factors that
influence performance. They explore and analyse
associated performance, health, and lifestyle issues.
They develop skills in communication and
investigation and the ability to apply knowledge to
practical situations.
Learning Intentions: SACE Performance Standards
In Physical Education, the emphasis is on the The performance standards describe five levels of
capabilities of personal development, achievement, A to E. Each level of achievement

Time: Introduction to Task (Routine matters/Statement of learning Outcome/Connection to
5 Min previous learning)
Outline/structure of the lesson
o 3v3 half court games
o 3 Activities
o Focusing on positions with fatigue: Server, Setter, Hitter
Essential question/Key concept: How does fatigue affect performance?
Learning outcomes (K.U.D.)
What is fatigue?
Why does fatigue occur?
Measure Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE)
o RPE is a way to assess the difficulty of a session for a given athlete,
o It is a representation of how difficult the session was,
o Which is filtered through the perception of the athlete
