My project about badminton

BADMINTON

Warm up:

          -General: Firstly, we are going to play the games:

 ‘The best hamburger’ and ‘Gavilan’

Thoose games are perfect to warm up our melabolism and every part of the body.

I will explain them below.

Then we warm up our muscles, triceps, bíceps, cuádriceps... in the rail in the pavilion.

Because if not, we can broke our tendons doing exercice, we cannot practice sport without warm up.

         -Specific: in groups of four we are going to play badminton passing the birdie and saying the names of the people.

Then, we are going to play in pairs with the net, practicing the different passes that exist in badminton

Main part:

We have to play a match four vs four.

We are going to do something similar to a badminton league, everybody in a group, and the team who win the league, is going to have an award.

Cool down:

To finish, we are going to play the game ‘stop’ and walk a little bit, to relax our body and calm down

Hamburger: We divide the class into four groups,each one is going to have a name that is an ingredient to do a hamburger(like cheese, up and down bread, tomato…)  and someone, ( probably the teacher) is going to say how he or she wants the hamburger, everybody have to run to a place and be lay in the correct order on the floor.

Gavilan: is the same as bulldog, anything change
