Description:
Put stations around my gym in a large circle. I also have pictures (shoulder folders) on cones with colors. This is how I have students rotate from one center to the next via colors. For example, purple to yellow and so on. I also place plastic arrows on the floor letting students know where they must go (directions). I use just about anything that can be thrown! Here are some of the things I use (I have centers alternate from underhand to overhand throwing): Volley Birds into a Deck Ring; I use this as a great chance to check for biomechanics of throwing. Great time to check perceptual motor skills.
