Learning Objectives:

Cognitive- Students will understand how to play the game of Danish Rounds.

You can stay on a base as long as you want.

You make a point when you touch home base.

Picture has to stay in one spot.

There are no fouls.

You have to kick in squad line up.

You must be on a base when the cone is knocked down by the picture to be safe.

Everyone gets to kick only once and everyone has to kick.
