Asteroid Dodge

Asteroid Dodge

GETTING STARTED:

• Find a large flat area outside or in a gym or cafeteria.

• Mark the corners of the play space with cones.

• Use cones to mark a designated "safe zone" on both sides of the playing field.

PLAYING ASTEROID DODGE:

• Instructors act as "asteroids," throwing soft foam balls at students trying to cross from one side to the other.

• Students must dodge the "asteroids" while running from one side to the safe zone.

• Eliminate students who get hit by an "asteroid," but give them a second chance after one round.

• Play 3-4 rounds.

MATERIALS NEEDED:

• 12 soft foam balls

• Cones to mark boundaries

• Stopwatch or timer
