Most people learn "hands-on." Having the needed equipment for each student to try activities out for themselves is crucial to skill development. Of course we learn team sports, teamwork is a huge part of student social development.

Tossing, catching, dribbling, are fundamental skills used in sports such as four square, ball-wall, basketball, and the beloved kickball which are taught each year. We can incorporate these balls into team sport challenges as well as personal aerobic activities.
