Rock/Paper/Scissors Dodgeball

Fun game which I made over the summer that turns a traditional game into something interactive and sport specific. I finally got round to using this game at school today with a challenging Year 9 group. They loved it!! It was something new for them which they lapped up. I think any activty where they can actively throw something at another person, they love. Really happy with the way it worked.

Activity

This game worked brilliantly with my Year 9's I've got to be honest. Upon reflection however, I would differientate the task in two ways. Firstly I would make the freedom line a shorter or longer distance away dependant on ability. Secondly if a low ability is paired against a high ability pupil, I would place the ball closer to the low ability and have the high ability pupil start a step back from the deadzone. This would ensure all pupils would have an opportunity to achieve the outcomes of the task.
