Emma picks up at tee-ball

Intended learning

To develop Emma’s willingness to participate in a range of physical activities with confidence.

Emma has been a member of our term 1 tee-ball team for her second season. Initially, she required plenty of physical support to bat, run, and field. Over the past two seasons, Emma has become far more independent in her batting and running. When fielding, Emma has usually watched the ball go by. Picking up the ball, standing still, and throwing the ball have been challenges for our team. We have taught these students to roll the ball to each other rather than throw it to make the task achievable.

Today, at tee-ball, Emma picked up the ball while fielding and threw it to Samantha. Emma also ran all the bases by herself without adult help. “You can do it!” was all that was needed the first time from her team members, and then she ran the rest all by herself with a smile.
