INSTRUCTIONS:
Teach and Discuss the Rules of Team Handball
Focus on the basic rules necessary to play the game. As students begin play, add a rule when the opportunity arises naturally.
Play Sideline Team Handball
Sideline handball can be played when space is limited, and the class is crowded. Extra team members spread out along each sideline. These sideline players can receive passes from teammates and can help pass the ball down the court. Sideline members can only pass the ball, however, and the three-second rule applies to them. One sideline is devoted to one team, and the other sideline to the other team.
TEACHING HINTS:
Rules for Team Handball can be found at http://usateamhandball.org/
Create 2 – 3 games depending on class size
Place opposite team members on each sideline
A challenging variation is to have players of both teams on each sideline. This distribution forces the active players to sharpen their passing skills.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Were there any particular numbers that were difficult to add during Addition Tag?
What muscles were used during the Astronaut Drills today?
Ask students to recite several of the rules of handball.
