Students log on to a computer next to their partners computer. Each student answers the questions of their name, their partners name, and whether their partner would rather throw underhand or overhand. Depending on their partners choice they click on the appropriate color circle. The circle is a hyperlink that links them to the teaching cues page on PE CENTRAL for that skill. The student will then copy the cues by highlighting them and pasting them into their document. Each student then prints page two. They take their printed cue sheet to the gym where they watch their partner throw with the ball of heir choice. Their partners assess the skill by putting a smile face next to each cue they see their partner demonstrate successfully. After five throws the other partner has their turn. Then both students return to their computer to finish the rest of the questions. They need to type two things their partner did well and two things their partner could do better. The assignment ends by the student giving themselves a grade for their efforts and ability to work with others. The assignment can then be printed and handed in to the teacher.
