Teaching Styles/Strategies for Objective #1:
Demonstration: The teacher can demonstrate the proper technique of passing and receiving with an implement combination, along with locomotor patterns of running and change of direction, speed, and/or level.
Practice: Students can practice passing and receiving with each other in pairs or small groups, with the teacher monitoring and providing feedback as necessary.
