More About This Unit
What do our 3rd grade Cricket lesson plans cover?
In Grade 3 Cricket, students should continue to develop control of the bat and ball, knowing how to throw and catch over an increasing distance, and hit the ball with the correct technique. Children should improve consistency and accuracy of skills when competing against themselves and against others.
Our 3rd grade Cricket lessons help children understand rules of the game and discuss tactics in game situations for both striking and fielding.
Why are Cricket lessons important for elementary-age children?
Cricket lessons play an important role in elementary school PE. They provide opportunities for children to develop a broader range of skills, in particular manipulation skills such as throwing, catching, gathering and intercepting – at speed and with accuracy.
Cricket lessons also give children a chance to participate in competitive games, using basic skills and knowledge to make it difficult for the opposition.
Elementary School Cricket is also great for promoting communication and collaboration between peers and understanding what is needed to improve a performance.
