Learning Outcomes
Dribbles in self-space with a preferred hand demonstrating a mature pattern
Description Of Activity
- Create boundaries for a large activity area with cones.
- Scatter poly spots throughout the area.
- Pair students, scattered throughout the area.
- One student is on a spot and the other with a ball.
-
The partner with the ball is the driver. The partner on the spot is the driving instructor. When I say, GO! the drivers are going to dribble throughout the activity area, working hard not to cause a crash.
- Driving instructors will watch their drivers. On the stop signal, give the driver's thumbs upgrade if the driver follows the cues we have learned in class. (See grade level progressions for specific criteria.)
- After all, drivers have received their grades, switch roles, and begin on the start signal.
