Final Lesson Plan

Intro/Sponge Activity: I will play a clip titled “Elite Warrior” on a DVD given to me when I enlisted. After wards I will ask the class how they felt about the video and any emotional responses.

Foundation: Talk about a brief history of the Marine Corp and all the possible job opportunities in the Marine Corp.

Answer one: Physical Conditioning

o   Importance of Physical Conditioning

o   How being in good physical condition can help you rank up

o   Good nutrition, etc  and why it is important

First Activity: P.T Session. I will lead a P.T at the basketball courts (physical training session) which will include stretching, running and various physical workouts. For safety reasons I will give breaks for catching their breath, stretch and hydrate.

Answer two: Discipline

o   Talk about different forms of discipline (restrictions, self discipline and will power)

o   Drill and Ceremony/ formation

o   Changing yourself

Second activity: I will teach the class proper formation, how to march, different positions of attention, and different movements (left face, right face and about face)

Answer three: Commitment

§  What does separates the Marines from other branches or any army

§  Motivation

§  Brotherhood     

§  Involvement

Third activity will be that the class must hold different positions (Push-up position, 6 inch flutter kick, sitting squat, plank) showing that even though one is in pain that if they are committed to a cause they can push past it.

My best answer is commitment because commitment makes physical conditioning and discipline easier. My interviews told me this, but it was service learning that I learned it myself

Explain my three main sources: Service Learning, Staff Sergeant Piliati, and Gunnery Sergeant Hilliard and how they helped me.        

Talk about my product which is me becoming a better person (Physically and mentally) and how I will be serving my country and gaining life skills

I will conclude and allow my recruiter SSgt. Piliati to talk about life as a Marine.

The room will have motivational Marine posters around along with a Marine Corp Flag and The United States Flag. The students will be seated on the ground with hands on their knees (this is how it is at boot camp).
