K-2 Throwing Skills

Currently in PE, K-2 students are learning proper throwing mechanics (in regards to throwing a baseball or softball). Yarn balls are used to ensure safety amongst the students. In the video/picture below, the students are participating in "Garbage Ball." Their goal is to throw their garbage (yarn balls) over the fence (the half court line) into their neighbor's yard, attempting to knock down their neighbor's flowers (bowling pins). Students learned the following about throwing:
1. Turn sideways pointing your opposite shoulder at your target, while raising the ball up and behind you
2. Stepping with the front or opposite foot
3. Rotate or twist your core
4. Throw and follow through
