ACCOMODATIONS:
- Students with disabilities can still play with the same rules, however they can use a smaller
ball.
- Those in wheelchairs can put the ball on a platform for the Snatch game.
MODIFICATIONS:
- For those with lower skills, can use a small/lighter ball or they can make their space smaller
so it is easier for them to maneuver around their space.
- For higher skilled students, you can use a bigger/heavier ball or they can make their space
larger, so its more difficult to get to the ball during the skill practice.

Activity Description
Skill Instruction:
In class right now you are discussing the civil war.
Prior to the war the states worked together.
So we are going to start by working together.
Each student has their own area (State), marked by four
cones that faces their opponents area.
The space between the two boxes is the (Dixie Line).
Using ONLY underhand throws, we will start by throwing the
ball back and forth and work together to not let the ball
bounce.
Skill/Teacher Cues
passing
(Questions to ask if I
want to work with my
partner to keep the ball
from hitting the ground,
where do I want to throw
it?)
Throw to your partner so
they can easily return.
****
Now the student with the ball can only hold the ball for 1
second (or one complete motion) before the ball must be
thrown back to the partner.
Catch ball:
Absorb: (the momentum
of the ball with soft
hands)
Reload: (move with the
ball into your wind up.)
Release: (throw the ball
back in one motion)
move farther back in your square to see if you can still make
good passes with your partner.
10 sec
Transition
Students are already in position.
Ask if students have any questions.
Have the student with the ball at his feet pick up the ball and
wait for the teacher to say begin
7 min
Skill Practice:
Students must maintain a rally (students work as partners.)
*1st: They must throw the ball back and forth to each other
without the ball bouncing before being caught.
*2nd: They must throw the ball back, in less than 1 sec (or one
complete motion), without letting the ball bounce.
>>Students must score a point (students are opponents)
3rd: Players must now try to beat their opponent by having the
ball bounce once inside their opponents area.
1 min
*** could also rotate them to different squares to let them play
different partners. ***
Transition
I want all the Confederate members to go put their ball back in
the bag. I want all the Union members to stack these two lines
of cones on top of these. (the teachers will point to which
cones)
Then the teams will separate to the different sides of the court.
1. Prewar
2. Prewar
3. Arguments over
slavery: can you name
states that seceded
from the Union?
(designate a side
Confederate and
Union)
4. Offensive strategies:
What are two ways to
try and score on your
opponent? (throw to
where they are not and
fake the force its
thrown)
5. Defensive strategies:
What is one way to
defend all of your
open space? (Stay
central)
They will be setting up the
court for the boundaries of
the culminating activity.
Time
2 min
Activity Description
Culminating Activity Instruction:
Now we commence with ultimate battle of the Civil War.
We have our Confederate army facing off against the Union
soldiers.
1. The boundaries for this game create our new Dixie
Line that cannot be crossed and the ball cannot touch.
2. We must use the skills that we learned earlier, to be
successful.
3. The objective of this game is to try and make the ball
hit the ground on the opponents side before they can
catch it.
4. The ball can only be held for 1 second (or one
complete motion) before it must be thrown.
5. The ball must be passed to every teammate before it
may be thrown into the opponents side.
6. Unlimited amount of passes.
7. Ball must be thrown underhand.
8. Teams must also rotate after they score, so a different
person is throwing each time.
9. Servers serve from the back to their own team
members before tossing the ball over to the opponents
side.
Skill/Teacher Cues
- Now its time for the
Bloodiest Civil War
Battle!: Gettysburg Battle
-
If I am trying to score on
my opponent, what are
some strategies I would
use to be successful?
(offensive: throw away
from my opponent, fakes/
defensive: stay in central
location)
8 min
Transition
Ask if anyone has any questions.
Have students paper, rock, and scissors to see who gets ball
first.
Begin the game.
Culminating Activity/Skill Application:
*1. Students will use a volleyball to pass
*2. Students will use a stability ball to pass
*3. Students will use a medicine ball to pass.
Safety considerations: soft knees and/or allow a bounce before
you catch the ball to prevent injury.
Ball may never touch the ground, teams must always release
the ball immediately, and teams must pass to all teammates
before throwing underhand to the opponents side.
*If the game gets slow or too easy. Change the unlimited
passes to only three passes (or throws) before it must go to the
opponents side. It still must reach all three teammates in the
three passes (or throws).
1 min
Transition
After last point, have all the Confederates pick up the cones on
their side and all the Union pick up the cones from their side
and bring them over to the equipment bag. Every student
should have some cones to grab.
Once all cones are put away, all students should have a seat in
front of the teachers.
Assign one student pass out an exit card to every student and
one student pass out a pen to every student.
quickly.

2. What aspects of this lesson should be changed/modified? Why should they be modified?
3. Did you meet the objectives of this lesson? Did the students achieve the SLTs? Why or why
