OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Track and Field Obstacle. In this game, the objective is to work with your team and complete each track event.

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class into teams of three.
• Before the race begins, decide who will compete at which obstacle- the hurdle race, long jump, or triple jump.
• When I say, “GO!” the teammate will hurdle race and pass the baton off to the next teammate who will long jump pass the cones.
• Once the long jumper lands, the triple jumper will get the baton and triple jump to the finish line.
• The triple jumper may take a running start from where the long jumper lands and must triple at the marker cones.

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Roller Ball V. In this game, the objective is to triple jump across the field to keep from being hit by a roller ball (fuzzy ball).

INSTRUCTIONS

• Before the game begins, line up shoulder-to-shoulder on the baseline.
• I will select one or more students to be the rollers (throwers).  
• Rollers must remain in the roller zone when throwing/rolling.
• When I say, “GO!” begin with a running start from the baseline.
• Once you have reached the second set of cones, you must try your best to triple jump and land past the third set of cones.
• The only time you can be hit by a fuzzy ball is when you are triple jumping.
• If you are hit below the waist or go out-of-bounds, you have to join the rollers for the next round.
• All hits must be below the waist. Anything above the waist does not count.
• We will begin a new round, once everyone has made their way to the end line or the baseline.
• The rollers may only leave their zone to retrieve balls in between rounds, but never during a round.
• We will begin a new game once there is one jumper left.

TEACHING TIPS

• Approach:
  • Adjust the second and third set of cones depending on the abilities of your class.
• Student Role:
  • Add a ball master on the side of the field opposite of the rollers to retrieve balls.
• Safety:
  • Remind students of proper tagging techniques.
• ELL Accommodation:
  • Post labeled pictures of skills and game play.
  • Partner with proficient English speakers for directions/modeling and reflections.
• SpEd Accommodation:
  • Set individual goals for physical or behavioral modifications.
  • Model skills in a small group.
  • Allow students to demonstrate skill one-on-one with teacher.
  • Allow students extra time to master the skill.
  • Use standards from previous grade levels to measure growth and progress.
