Week of March 25, Friday no school
2nd - 5th grades
A...Students will complete their third nine weeks final test, a 1/2 mile run/jog/walk. Students will attempt to complete the run in the designated times for a grade. Afterthe run, students will be reintroduced to batting. Emphasis will be on the foot placement and how it can effect the direction the ball is hit, and hand placement on the bat. Students who have mastered tee hitting will advance either to self-toss or student pitch. Students will hit in groups of three, quickly rotating on each hit to keep students on the move! Bat safety will be discussed at all times throughout the lesson. Pitched balls will be soft-tossed like a slow-pitch softball and we will have batters show targets before they swing.

B...Students will again warm up in the same circular format working on baseball form, with review. Students will be introduced to "Bonker Ball". Students will work in groups of three or four. One student is the batter, another the pitcher, and the other(s) the outfielder. The pitcher underhand tosses to the batter who hits the ball in any direction. As the batter goes to first and back home as many times as possible, the outfielder(s) and pitcher attempt to work together to tag home to stop the batters run scoring explosion! Each at bat is an inning.
