"Triple Threat"... One of the best under/overhand throwing games for K-2 students





-"Triple Threat" involves two teams trying to score yarn balls into the other teams three different levels.  Students choose whether to underhand or overhand toss the yarn balls into the three challenging levels.  If a student got a yarn ball into level one (5 gallon bucket), they got to go and steel one piece of the other teams treasure.   Level two (knocking ball off cone) equaled two pieces, and level three (hula hoops) equaled three.

Students in second grade added in Level 4, a half court shot into the opposing basketball hoop, some students actually made this (perseverance is key!) and it was worth TEN pieces of treasure (they had to put the pieces of treasure in their pockets and elsewhere in order to get all of the pieces back, haha!
