This week, grades 3-5 are working on basketball skills through an activity called Basketball Golf. Imagine golf scoring combined with basketball shooting. Lines are taped on the floor near different baskets, labeled #1-18. The lines are our "holes". Students are in partners, and take turns shooting from the "holes". Scoring partner records how many shots it takes for their shooting partner to make a basket from a hole. The maximum score on any hole is five. Students are encouraged to use proper shooting technique, with the BEEF acronym to help with form: Balance, Eyes, Elbow, Follow Through.
