Basketball Vocabulary

We've been working on learning the different types of passes in basketball. I recently wrote the four different passes on a few basketballs and had students make passes to a partner. When a student received the ball, whateve type of pass was written at the top of the ball, they then had to say and make that type of pass. The students were able to pick up on the types of passes and transform this into a moving and learning exercise.

Great Idea! I will use this in my classes to teach students different exercises. This keeps the students involved in physical activity while they are learning.
