• A beanbag, eraser, or similar object for each team

Students will practice passing and catching.

The number of claps each student is required to do can vary, but should be specified before each game.

Students form files by rows.

The class is divided into two teams, and each team forms into a row. The first person in each row faces the object that is to be passed to the desk behind.

At the signal to pass, this child claps hands, picks up the object, and passes it overhead to the child behind.

The next child places the object on the desk, claps hands, and then passes the object overhead.

The last child in the row receives the object and runs forward to the head of the row, using the aisle to the right.

After the runner has passed by, each child, using the same aisle, moves back one seat.

The child who has come to the front then sits down in the first seat, places the object on the desk, claps hands, and passes the object overhead.

This continues until the children are back in their original seats and the object is on the front desk.

The first row finished wins.

This game can be played in an open space outside as well. Students can turn toward the person next in line (rather than behind them) and throw a ball.

The distance between students can vary depending on age and/or skill level. It would be important for the students to be equal distances apart; positions could be marked with tape or chalk.
