I want to plan a lesson for my 1st grade PE class on how to properly catch and throw a ball.
This Physical Education (PE) lesson for 1st grade students focuses on developing fundamental motor skills to catch and throw a ball. This skill is critical for building hand-eye coordination, gross motor development, and teamwork. The activities align with SHAPE America National PE Standard 1: The physically literate individual demonstrates competency in a variety of motor skills and movement patterns.
By the end of the class, students will be able to demonstrate proper throwing and catching techniques, showing basic accuracy and control.
