Co-Teachers Plan Week #4

Professional Educator:
Megan Manley
Emergency Medical Technician

Along with being a special education teacher, Ms. Manley is also local EMT that I have spoken with and plan to partner with for my upper level wellness class. The wellness class was developed to be a continuing health educational class offered for the students here at the high school. One key component of the class is the offering of CPR/First Aid certification for the students pending the passing of the CPR/First Aid exam. Since only certified personnel can administer exams and grant certification, it will be necessary for her to participate with the wellness class CPR/First Aid administration.
Ms. Manley has a variety of resources that will be used for certification. Video, website and oral presentation will be used for the students. This will take approximately two class periods followed by a 50 question exam for certification. Once competed she will issue CPR/First Aid completion cards to the students that certify them proficient in those areas of rescue.

PL-HS-1.3.2

Students will explain how proper first-aid procedures (e.g., CPR/rescue breathing) for responding to emergency situations (falls, drowning, choking, bleeding, shock, poisons, burns, temperature-related emergencies, allergic reactions, broken bones, overdose, heart attacks, seizures) can help reduce the severity of injuries and save lives.

Students will be assessed once again by the 50 question multiple choice exam given for CPR/First Aid certification at the completion her presentation. Students are required to receive a minimum score of 70% to reach proficiency and obtain a certification card.

Executive Director, RC Durr YMCA Burlington, KY

The RC Durr YMCA offers a "Take Out Program" that will be brought to a group of people at their location such as a school. I briefly spoke to Mrs. Rayner last month while at Ryle HS during a YMCA presentation. I have also sent an email with more detail and awaiting relpy. The program I would like to utilize is the "Beginner Yoga Course". Since I know nothing about yoga and students have been asking to participate in the activity this would be a great opportunity for community outreach to help with the instruction of yoga.
A traditional setting will have a yoga instructor or the use of a video for the students to follow. I would recommend this plan be used for week long session. This will provide the students with adequet skill practice and knowledge of the lifetime benefits to be gained. This would be provided to all physcial education students.

PL-HS-2.1.1

Students will analyze the principles for motor skills (e.g., accuracy, technique, physics, mechanics) and make applications forimproving these skills (locomotor, nonlocomotor, transitional).

PL-HS-2.2.1

Students will explain how physical, emotional/mental and social benefits result from regular participation in leisure/recreational or competitive physical activities:

· mental/emotional benefits (e.g., reduces anxiety/stress, depression, provides better body image, improves self-discipline and self-respect)

PL-HS-2.2.2

Students will apply techniques (e.g., practice, peer/teacher evaluation, individualized coaching) to achieve performance consistency in games and sports.To assess the students I have thought about two options. The first option would be for a student to create a yoga skill presentation demonstrating the propper techniques of the skills they have learned. This would be approximately 3-5 minutes demonstrated to the class. The second option would be creating a brochure or powerpoint about the benefits of yoga.
