D. Review	2	I
1) Skill – Teamwork is the ability to work together towards a common vision/goal. Teamwork provides safety, happiness, room for development and improvement. Also, it helps to avoid behavioral problems and build friendships. 2) Drill/Activity – The students lay down head-to-toe in a line. At the foot of the first student is a hula hoop filled with footballs. The object is for this first person to lift a football from the hoop using his or her feet and pass it over their head to the next person in line — all while still lying down! The next person must grasp the ball with his or her feet, and again pass it to the next person down the line. Hands are not allowed to be used, except for balance. 3) Formations/Transitions: X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X v  v  v  v  v

Fleeing is when a person may be chased, they are moving away from the “chaser” 2) Explanation & Demonstration of Skill/CUES: Students will be stay in squad lines. First student will sit Indian style five feet in front of the person behind them. On “Go” the first student is fleeing to the cone and the second student is chasing the first trying to tag him/her. Continue through the line, repeat a. Breakdown: i. Fleeing – speed changes, quick fakes, quick movements/turns. ii. Chasing – speed changes, quick movements/turns, eye-hand coordination/control, eyes on target. iii. Quick feet iv. Eyes on target/Direction b. Instruction on Management (Class Formation): Students will be split groups using squads. All students start at one end of the playing area. They will move/run down the field in a straight line to the cone. After their turn they will sit down behind the cone they have just reached and wait to go again after all students in their line have gone.

H. Strategy	1	IA
Students will work to improve their skills of chasing and fleeing, by using quick movements and turns and altering speeds. Cookies will be fleeing, and Cookie Monsters will be chasing.
I. Rules — Safety is the most important. Wait your turn. When your Cookie is called you run out and try to reach the cookie jar. If you are tagged, you sit in the cookie jar, until the round is finished/over.

Cookie Monster – The students will be split into five groups. The groups will then decide what cookie they want to be, for example, an Oreo, Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal, Sugar Cookie, Peanut Butter Cookie, and M & M Cookie. There will be three cookie monsters, which will switch each round, trying to tag all the cookies. Students who make it past the cookie monsters to the jar will be picked to be the new cookie monster in the next round. The round will end after all cookies have been called out and all students have had a turn. All students who are tagged go to the cookie jar, after the round is over they leave the cookie jar.
