Goal

To support our students in an active and fun way of introducing striking, throwing, and catching objects to support volleyball skills as well as other activities that use the same movements.  

 

Category

Physical Education Equipment - Rackets, bats, balls, nets, jump ropes, etc. 

 

What will be done with my students

9 Square is an active game that is played like 4 square, but up in the air. Nine students are playing at once, while trying to keep a ball up in the air and not allowing it to fall in their square or hit it out of bounds. Students are able to use different types of balls, while also raising the height of the equipment to strike, catch, and throw to another square, increasing or decreasing the difficulty based on the abilities of each age group.  

 

Benefits to my students

9 square is a great way to help our younger students begin to strike and catch a ball using the proper movements to be successful, while also throwing to others and using the idea of teamwork and sharing. These ideas are also used with the older students, while also focusing in on more specific skills that prepare them for volleyball in middle school and making the game more fast paced and exciting. The 9 Square equipment will allow more students to be playing at once, which will help them have more time to practice their skills based on their particular level.
