Visual Aid(s) in elementary PE class

Use floor tape to designate areas where students should stand when learning how to perform concepts such as the forehand strike or backhand strike.  In the video, our net set up was intended to be shared with four people (2 on each side) …the object was to self-drop a developmentally appropriate ball, and perform either the forehand or backhand strike over the low level line (net). 

The lollipop paddle has a marking on the center of it to indicate the area where the ball or balloon should make contact.

The balloon has vocabulary words on it and a few cues in case a student is struggling with the skill or simply needs a quick reminder.

Writing on the equipment serves a purpose if the outcome is student achievement.Hope this video helps.
