1st Grade
Handball
Handball is a relatively new sport, and most Elementary kids will not have played it before. Using our Handball lesson plans is a perfect way to demonstrate how we can transfer skills from one sport to the other, still using our throwing, catching, and teamwork skills. The assessment grids below will highlight which students have been able to demonstrate a transfer of skills into a new sport.

More About This Unit
What do our 1st Grade Handball lesson plans cover?
In Grade One Handball, children should improve their ability to move fluently changing speed and direction. They should continue to develop key fundamental movement skills, both with and without a ball, moving in a safe way.
Our Handball lesson plans help 1st Graders develop basic ball control, experiment with different types of sending and receiving, and show some success when aiming at a target.
Why are Handball lessons important for elementary-age children?
Handball lessons play an important role in elementary school PE. They provide opportunities for children to master basic movements and develop fundamental movement skills such as running, jumping, throwing and catching, and developing balance, agility and coordination. Handball lessons also give children a chance to participate in team games, using simple tactics and forming simple plans to achieve success.
Elementary School Handball is also great for promoting values such as respect and for helping children become physically confident and competent to support their health and fitness.
