Introduction:
 The teacher will explain what circuit training is and why is it important in physical education. The students will be introduced to the 5 exericises they will be doing in the circuit. All of the exercies have been taught to the students, so the students will know from prior knowdlege what the exercieses are.
Development:
 The teacher will demonstrate the proper way to do pushups, situps, "step ups", jumping rope, and side to sides. The five circuits will be at the four corners and one in the center of the gym. Each station will have a 1 minute time with 30 seconds to get to the next station. Each student should go through the entire circuit twice. The teacher will devide the students into 5 groups. (It does not matter how you do this as long as all students are included) Once divided, the students are put at one of the 5 stations to get ready to begin.

When one minute is up, the teacher will blow her whistle to prompt the students to stop and to get ready to go to the next circuit.
