__ **Lesson Description:** __
=== 1) Set up (or have students set up) a series of "holes" in a large open space outdoors (you can scale everything down for indoors for introduction/practice for younger elementary) at distances you think your average student could throw in about 3 or 4 tosses. (Add one for par on each hole) ===

2) Break students into as many groups as there are holes and assign each group a starting hole and explain the order of rotation around the holes.

 * 3) Explain/Model proper throwing technique (review from previous lessons)**
 * -all other players stand well behind thrower,**
 * -turn sideways to target with throwing hand and leg in front,**
 * -bring frisbee to back armpit and throw with body movement forward,**
 * -stop throwing hand when pointing at target,**
 * -take turns teeing off and always, "Stay behind the thrower!"**
 * 4) Explain throwing order with player lying farthest back throwing, then next farthest, etc. with group staying behind the throwers**
 * 5) Explain to players that they should keep track of how many throws they've completed on each hole and that using __fewer__ throws or a __lower__ score is what they're shooting for**
 * 6) When the group finishes the first hole have students wait patiently for the group in front of them at their next hole and hold off throwing until the hole is clear. Just in case! (Chris Hunt, Traut, 2010)**
