More About This Unit
What do our 4th Grade Basketball lesson plans cover?
In Grade 4 Basketball, children should learn to perform and combine skills, at speed, with confidence and control. Children should choose and apply skills that meet the need of the situation such as keeping possession or moving to get away from an opponent.
Our 4th Grade Basketball lessons help children improve teamwork shills, follow rules of the game and understand formations and individual roles.
Why are Basketball lessons important for elementary-age children?
Basketball lessons provide opportunities for elementary children to use running, jumping, throwing, and catching in game situations, and continue to develop balance, strength, agility, and control. Basketball lessons also give children a chance to participate in competitive games, using basic principles suitable for attacking and defending.
Elementary School Basketball is also great for promoting values such as respect and for helping children become physically confident and competent to support their health and fitness.
