Lesson:
Soccer
Monster – Four or five students will be picked to be the soccer
monsters. The soccer
monsters will stand in the center of the gym holding or wearing a
flag. They are
guarding the “haunted forest” and will try to disrupt the
students traveling through the forest by touching their soccer
balls. If someone has
their ball touched by a soccer monster, they must trap their ball
and count (1st and 2nd grade will count to
twenty, 3rd – 5th grade will say the
2’s, 3’s, or 4’s times tables).
After counting they may continue to travel across the gym. The soccer monsters will get 1 point for every ball they
touch, the dribblers will get one point for every time they can
get across the length of the gym.
If a dribbler is trapping their ball, a soccer monster
cannot touch the ball. After each turn, the old soccer monsters will choose a new
soccer monster to take their place. This activity can be used for
a warm-up for older students or a whole class activity for those
younger. |
