Lacrosse/Golf

The first and second graders are involved with a new unit here at Maple Avenue, golf.  This unit will discuss some of the history of the game, along with some rules, and golf terms.   We will also discuss different parts of the course and why clubs look the way they do.  The students will focus on chipping and putting with plastic clubs that are designed for this age group.  The third and fourth graders will be using this time to work on Lacrosse.  Here they will learn the history of the game along with rules and differences between male/female lacrosse games.  The students will specifically work on throwing and catching, while integrating some throwing challenges into the mix.  Both of these units have a rich history behind them, so please ask your students about it!
