I am headed to TN to do a PD for Greeneville.  I am looking forward to sharing some of these resources with them on Tuesday.  Here they are for all of you!

 

1. DEAM Calendar (January 2017)

• Give this (deam-jan-2017) to students and encourage them to be active at home!

 

2. Slam Ball

• Thinking of submitting this for an OPEN 60+ After School Activity. Please try it and let me know how it can be better.
• Equipment:
  • 1 hoop AND 1 ball per two (or four) players
• Set-up:
  • Two players stand on opposite sides of a hoop at least one step away. If sharing a hoop, two other players can stand perpendicular at the same hoop. One player starts holding the ball.
• Procedure:
  • The first player throws the ball into the hoop. The second player attempts to catch it.
  • If sharing a hoop with 4 players and the two balls collide, this is a ‘slam’ and the two players that threw the ball switch opponents.
• Scoring:
  • Ball does not hit inside the hoop (point for receiving player)
  • Ball hits inside hoop, but does not bounce at least 1 step away from hoop (point for receiving player)
  • Ball hits inside hoop and bounces over the head of the receiver (point for receiving player)
  • Ball is not successfully caught by receiving player (point for serving player)
