OBJECTIVE: Today you will be refining your hockey skills at five different stations.

ACTIVITIES	CUE PHRAZES/INSTRUCTIONS
Intro: Mirror Drill in Place	Students pick a partner. One person is the leader and makes a quick movement with the hands, head, legs or body. The other partner tries to mirror and perform exact movement.
Fitness: Aerobic Activity- Four Corners Skipping, jogging, sliding, running backwards, jumping, leaping, hopping and galloping Stretch Activities- Partner Resistance Exercises: Arm curl-ups, fist pull-apart, butterfly, and resistance push-up.	Tape intervals of music playing for 30 seconds and silence for 45 seconds to do partner resistance exercises. Have four cones set up at corners. Students can do any locomotor movement until they get to a different cone. They must change their movement. -Partner resistance exercises range of motion exercises should take 8-12 seconds to complete.
Lesson Focus: Students will work on various hockey skills at five different stations:(Dribbling, Passing, Driving, Goaltending, 3 on 3) Organization- Groups of six at each station. Discuss the stations and/or have station signs. Station 1- (Dribbling) Run N’ Weave- Practice dribbling around the cones in shuttle format. Two groups of three. Have contest and see which group gets done first. Station 2- (Passing) Students will pass the puck back and forth to a designated line and back. Increase distance when passing. Station 3- (Driving) Target shooting- Each student will have a puck and practice shooting at hoop. One hoop per student against the wall. Have a contest and see who can make the most goals. Station 4- (Goaltending) Four Cones- Two goal areas set up. Two groups of three. Two partners practice passing back and forth and then try to score against the other player who is the goalie. Switch playing positions. Station 5- (3 on 3) -Two cones set at six feet apart at opposite ends of the court. One goalie per team while other two play against each other. Switch roles so everyone has the opportunity to be the goalie.	Remind students that you are trusting them to work independently and safely and to do what is required at each station. Remind students to ensure they have a safe distance between team members when practicing their particular hockey skills. On signal, before you rotate to next station, make sure all the equipment is set up or put away for the next group to participate. When swinging at the target station, make sure you are not “High Sticking” and holding the stick tightly. Do not retrieve the pucks until everyone is done hitting. When playing 3 on 3 remember to have good sportsmanship and work together as a team. If the students do not make it to all the stations, remind them to remember which station they finished last.
Closure: Put all hockey sticks and pucks against the wall. What was our lesson focus today? When is the best time to score a goal? When would be the best time to pass the puck?
