Teaching Hints:

Description:
  1. Divide the class into 4 relay lines. Put 5-6 cones in front of each team line. Spread the cones out depending on your age level.
  2. The first player on each team starts rolling the team's dice and adding up the numbers, keeping a running total.
  3. Once a player reaches 20 then they are allowed to go. The last # they rolled to get to 20 on their die is the 3 of cones that they must race through.
  4. While racing through the cones they must also be either dribbling a basketball or kicking a soccer ball.
Alternatives/Modifications
  • As soon as the first person starts through the cones the next player is allowed to start rolling the die.
  • You could just have the younger kids run to the cones and eliminate the ball handling aspect.
  • game can be modified to use multiplication or division
