5-6 |
Within-team practice: Overhead pass, forearm pass and underhand serve; “short-long” (anteroposterior displacements) with overhead and forearm pass; receiver/non-receiver notion (0:2), with the inclusion of verbal communication; 2vs2; Students’ roles: design an exercise to solve an identified problem - lack of verbal communication between the two students and consequent assigning accountability zones. |
Within-team practice: Overhead pass, forearm pass and spike; “whoever attacks, set” (chain two actions, receiving and attacking the ball); 4vs4; Students’ roles: design an exercise to solve an identified problem - shooting difficulties due to technical problems in the distributor’s action. |

Within-team practice: Anteroposterior and lateral displacements; Overhead pass, forearm pass; Receiver/non-receiver notion (0:2) with the promotion of communication and assignment of accountability zones; 2vs2. |
Within-team practice: Anteroposterior and lateral displacements; chain the distributor’s action (first contact) with the attacker’s (third contact); adjust movements to ball trajectories; 4vs4. |
Students’ roles: implement the learning tasks created to solve the problems identified in the previous lesson. |
9-10 |
Within-team practice: Lateral displacements; Overhead pass, forearm pass and underhand serve; watching the opponents’ placement and playing the ball to the vulnerable space of the opponent’s court; 2vs2; Students’ roles: design an exercise to solve an identified problem - lack of reading the opponent’s behavior. |
Within-team practice: Lateral displacements; Overhead pass, spike and block; Rotation of ‘mobile square’ in defense situation (1:2:1): to identify the space where the student is going to attack the ball and to distinguish back defense placement according to block action; 4vs4; Students’ roles: design an exercise to solve an identified problem - Placement of the ball in spaces already occupied. |
