February 15, 2012- Oscar's Trash Can

This game may also be called Tornado Ball.  Basically two mats are set up in the middle of the gym.  The mats needs to be standing up and be connected in a circle.  Two students get inside the mat structure.  All of the other students throw balls (that are scattered on the floor) into the mat structure (trash can).  The two students inside the trash can must throw all of the balls out of the trash can.  Play for a couple of minutes then count the balls inside the trashcan.  After you count the balls, empty the trash can and pick two new students to be in the trashcan.

AGES: Kindergarten and up

EQUIPMENT: two folding gymnastic mats, as many dodgeballs as you can find

MODIFICATIONS: have students outside the trashcan work on throwing different ways- underhand, overhand, left hand, right hand, two hands, etc.
