Grade(s):
Preferred for second-third grade

Objectives:
The students will be able to develop hand-eye coordination and
teamwork

Materials Needed:
Four Dodge balls (Two Different Colors)
One Soccer Ball
Quarter
Chalk *Ill create the pre-made circle for them

Procedures:
1. Have a group of four students and split them into pairs.
2. After already having the circle drawn, I will place the dodge balls into
the middle of the circle. They will be called the shooters.
3. So it will be fair, I will flip a quarter to see which group will shoot
first.
4. The group going first will be a certain color according to the different
color dodge balls. The team will have to roll the soccer ball at one of
the opposing groups doge balls and try to knock it out of the circle.
5. Once they have a turn, then one of the others group players will roll
the soccer ball and vice versa.
6. Whichever pair knocks out the opposing groups balls will win the
round!

Lesson:
-The primary idea for this activity is for the students to learn to work
together.

Assessment:
-After the children play the game, I would ask them to write me/or tell
me a brief summary of why its so important to cooperate and work together
with your peers.
