Students Dribble the Ball as Bumble Bees (everyone had a ball)

Students kick the ball into lady’s legs (passing) to sting her
After many stings she will “die” (fall over)

stolen away by a Plankton

Every time the ball
goes through their
partners leg the group gets
a point
• Each player has a ball
• Players try to pass their ball so that it lands on the surface of
mars (a cone circle a certain distance away)
• Teacher tosses the ball to a student if they say catch it the
student should head it, if they say head it the student should
catch it
• Students stand in a horseshoe facing the goal
• Teacher says ready, aim, fire
• Students fire (shoot) the ball into the goal

Break up into at least 2 group

Give kids a number from 1 to # of kids on team
Give other team the same #s
Teacher will call a number the two
students who have that number will
try to get the ball and score.
• The soccer ball is the bacon
• Have them be continuous and put students in groups of 2
• Make them interesting
• Ex:
• Dribble to the line, do 20 toe touches, dribble to line 2 stop your ball with
your nose, stand up spin
around the ball 3 times,
dribble back an shoot.
