Second Teaching Experience

My second teaching experience was okay but it did not go as I would have liked it to. I taught a sport called Gaga Ball. I had the kids play a game called the circle slap game where the class got into groups of five and slapped the ball around the center of the circle to each other. After a little while of that, I made it into a competition where the kids tried to hit the ball into each others legs. They could block there legs with their arms. Once each student got hit three times they were out until the game was over. Overall, I thought the game went well but I realized that as far as my instruction goes, I need work. I felt like in the future I have to do a better job explaining the game because I noticed that students were not sure of what to do at first.
