Bowling (Station Activity)


Bowling (Station Activity)
 

State Standard: 2

Equipment: bowling pins & cones (one for each group), music, variety of balls
Grade: K-2
Purpose of Event: Check underhand throwing (overhand too) and aiming/hitting a stationary target
Time: 15+ minutes
Description: 

Divide class into groups of 2-3. Each group stands at their cone and have a ball. When the music starts, the game begins. The object of the activity is to knock down the bowling pin. Each time the pin is knocked down, the team gets 1 point. If you knock over the pin, you go set it up while one person on the team retrieves the ball. The retriever becomes the next bowler. Take turns.

Concerns: Space groups apart so that they aren’t hit by others pins, don’t allow students to stand by the pins.
