How to Plan a PE Lesson with This Template

  1. Note the Space

    Write where the class meets, such as the gym, field or hallway, since it shapes every activity.

  2. Set One Skill Objective

    Name the single movement skill students will work on, and list the equipment it needs.

  3. Time Each Part

    Give the warm-up, skill practice, game and cool-down a time so the lesson ends on schedule.

  4. Write Short Cues

    In the activity column, add the one or two cues you will repeat as students move.

  5. Plan Safety and Changes

    List boundaries and spacing, then ways to make each task easier or harder.
