Throwing

I can throw and follow through to a target.

I can find my accuracy through division

Manipulate

• Manipulate means to control.• Controlling objects through movements

(throwing, catching, kicking) with body parts.• Getting the desired result (getting what you

want).

Types of throws

• Identify the 2 types of throws. Think mathematically ( angles) and spatially (levels and relationships)

Overhand

• The most commonly used throw (fast). –Side to target–Arm way back–Step with opposite foot–Twist your torso–Swing arm forward–Release–Follow Through

Underarm throw

• Underarm Throwing (soft slow)– facing target– Step with opposite foot– Pull/Push or Back/Forward (swing arm)– Release– Follow Through

under or over?

• Which type of throw would you recommend for accuracy?

• Compare the two throws to the target and see which has the greater accuracy. Follow through.

Task

• You are going to throw 4 times to the target using an overhand throw and 4 times to the target using underhand.

• You are going to evaluate (rate, assess, grade) yourself on accuracy (closest to target) as you compare underhand and overhand.

• How did you measure your accuracy?• Which type of throw is most accurate?

Rubric

• The red is worth 1 point.• The yellow is worth 2 points.• Your total can be as high as 16.• 16 points would be 100% accuracy• 8 points would be 50% accuracy
