Outdoor PE Equipment Needed

My students need a cricket set, a flying disc game, a tossing target, and a spikeball to break the mold of traditional games. I am looking to broaden their views of what a game really is.

My Students

I am looking to introduce my students to different games and activities, some of which they have never seen before. This will allow me to possibly level the playing field between my super athletes and my novice movers.

My students are super competitive.

By allowing them to play these different games, students will be forced to come outside their comfort zone. These games will enhance teamwork and communication among players and teams. Traditional games are great, but anything new is exciting.

My Project

With the warmer months just ahead of us, I am looking to take my students outside for Physical Education class. I would like them to move more and see how well they can communicate in different activities. I'm looking for a Cricket set as a follow up to my wiffleball unit. I have some students from other countries in my class that are familiar with this sport and would be excited to play it again. I am also looking for additional Frisbee activities like Skore Tossing Targets for Frisbee Golf and Saucer Slam, another exciting frisbee game. In addition to these games, I would like to try Spikeball. I've seen it advertised on TV and can see the endless potential for non-stop play an excitement. I expect my students to be respectful during all activities and look to see good sportsmanship throughout. I hope my students learn that it's not the game you play, but how you play the game.

Some of my students have never seen these games and I would like to be the first one to introduce it to them.

I enjoy all games and activities and look to instill the same values into all my students.
