| | |
|Play game of tag in small area – get them all moving and having fun | |
| | |
|Kickball (20 mins) |Fun twist on kickball to incorporate solar |
| |system |
| | |
| |Each cone is worth different points (depending |

| | |
| |Encourage students |
| | |
| |Ensure all students are actively participating |
| | |
| |Throw the ball to those who might not be as |
| |involved to get them involved |
| | |
| |Modification – everyone on the team must touch |
| |the ball before it gets back to the ‘bowler’ |
| | |
|One person from the fielding team rolls the ball to the ‘kicker’ who kicks the ball anywhere in the court away | |
|from the fielders | |
|The ‘kicker’ then runs around any of the cones as many times as possible to score as many points as possible | |
|Each cone is a different planet and is worth different points depending how far away from earth they are | |
|Venus = 1 point | |
|Mars = 2 points | |
|Mercury = 3 points | |
|The sun = 4 points | |
|Jupiter = 5 points | |
|Saturn = 6 points | |
|Uranus = 7 points | |
|Neptune = 10 points | |
|If the fielding team catches the ball, the kicker is out (each team gets 3 ‘outs’ until they change with the | |
|other team | |
|Go through until everyone has had a go, with the team at the end with the highest score being the winner | |

|Soccer – different goals around the field (20 mins) |Modified game of soccer |
