Activity
Instant Activity/Warm-Up:
Pipeline Instant Activity Movement Sequence Task Cards
Equipment needs:
2 basketballs, 2 jump ropes, 2 individual mats, two tennis balls, 6
hula hoops, two soccer balls, 2 exercise balls, 2 sets of cup stacks.
Laminated task cards.
Dribble a ball in a zigzag pathway for 30 seconds.
Skip around the activity area one time.
Jump Rope 50 times
Balance on one leg for 30 seconds.
Do as many push ups as you can without stopping!
Crabwalk around the circle two times!
Do a midline ball bounce thirty times, alternating hands.
Hula Hoop 30 times- can you use more than one hula hoop?
Dribble a ball around the activity space with your feet.
Pick one exercise on the ball and do it thirty times.
Cup stack cycle 3-6-3, 6-6, 1-10-1 make sure you end in a 3-6-3

Learning Experiences/Activity(ies):
FETCHUse of DVD to enhance learning
Equipment needs: One set of speed stacks for each student.
Allow stack of 3-3-3
Set up: Have students spread out 11 of their cups randomly within Use weighted stacks or mini stacks
the designated activity area covering most of the space available. Use peer partners.
Have the student place the 12th cup on the floor outside the
activity area. This will become the students “home base”. Have
student stand next to their home base to begin the activity.
Procedure: ON the “GO” signal, students will run into the activity
area finding a cup of the same color as their home base. One they
find a cup, they will return to their home base and begin to build a
column of 12 cups. Stackers will continue running back and forth,
grabbing one cup at a time until all 12 cups are in a column. The
student must then do a designated stack 3 times and then sit down
at their home base signaling completion.

Game experience:
Survivor
Equipment: 6 hula hoops, 8 sets of cups, two colored flag belts and cones to mark jail. *For extra MVPA use fit stack markers in
the jail.
Set Up:
Place three same colored hoops on each side line of the activity area (6 in all) with a stack of cups placed in each hoop. Use cones to designate a
small square as the “fitness jail” for each side line, and place fitness stack mats in each. Place an extra set of cups on the end line of the activity
area. Divide the students into two teams; every student puts on a flag belt.
The object of the game:
To “steel” the most extra cups from the end line for your team.
First you must make it to the opponents sideline and into a stacking hoop without having your belt pulled. Once there you are safe to perform
whatever pattern was per-determined by the class. Then you must race to the end line, grab a cup, and return it to your own side (also without
having your belt pulled). If a belt is pulled the student must go directly to jail and begin performing fitness activities until a teammate comes to
rescue them. *
*A free walk is given to someone who has safely made it to the jail. ONLY ONE student may be released at a time. The game ends
after a certain amount of time or when all cups have been “Stolen”. The side with the most “stolen” cups wins!
It is imperative to remind students to share the job of building the sequence each time.
Tower building:
Place all cups on one end line with teams lined up at the opposite end line. Students take turns retrieving one cup a t a time until
all cups are gone. The team then builds a large tower with the cups they have available. *Take a picture to remember how well
they work as a cooperative group!
Comments: Questions:
Can students explain how to properly perform a cycle in sport stacking?
Can they estimate their time for a complete cycle?
Do they know the World record for a cycle?

Did you know that in a recent study by Melanie Hart support is now given to the hypothesis that cup stacking does in fact utilize both sides of
the brain?”
