Learning Outcome

Demonstrate & develop accuracy while catching (eyes on the ball, fingers apart, catch with hands)

Activity Description

It’s time to Bounce and Catch with an added challenge!
When I say, GO! everyone will begin bouncing and catching their balls. While you’re practicing, I’ll be going around to each student and challenging you to catch a ball that I bounce to you.
Keep practicing until you hear the stop signal.
The prompt student gets their hands ready for the ball to catch a soft bounce pass.
Prompt students to show hands, working to catch the ball with hands, rather than trapping it against their body.
practicing Bounce and Catch on their own to try and add a clap (or several claps) before each catch.
