Practical handbook for athletics

The book series "Successful Lesson Plans for Schools and Clubs" provides tested and immediately applicable lesson plans for physical education from grade 5 to high school, as well as for club sports. The lesson plans are divided into introduction, main part, and conclusion. The sport-specific volumes in A4 format are practice-oriented and support the successful design of club and curriculum-compliant sports lessons. Track and field is much more than just running, throwing, and jumping, as Cornelia Moll and Diana Giesen demonstrate in this practical book. In over 40 easily understandable lesson plans, the authors describe the fundamental techniques of long jump and high jump, throwing (ball and javelin)/shot put, as well as running (sprints and endurance), always considering playful elements. The exercises are suitable for outdoor use, with some also appropriate for indoor settings. They are complemented by many illustrative photos and helpful illustrations. Excursions on sports motor tests and hurdles, along with numerous worksheets, round out this successful practical book.
