Earn 1 point for each ball that is the closest to the target. Play games to a designated number of points. This is a cooperative activity that also involves imagination and fantasy. Students work in pairs trying to rebound the rocket ship safely back and forth, as the astronauts try and advance from one planet to another. The players are rebounding the ball across two lines that are about 10 feet apart.
Advanced teams can increase the distance between the lines.
Scatter Students are in a scatter formation in the playing area. One student starts the game by rebounding the ball to another player. Students try to keep the ball from hitting the floor. If the group is successful with one ball, then increase the number of balls that are being rebounded. Students can be moving as they are rebounding, or, to add another twist, have students stay in their own designated space.
