Disc activities are an excellent elementary content area for both skill and fitness enhancement. They may occur through progressive skill and drill practice, small sided-game examples, modifications of traditional disc activities appropriate to large groups, and with adjustments designed to increase activity and fitness levels. For games in this article, both simple and modified rules are provided as well as a sample three-week block plan. Sample written and skill tests are also included. (Contains 1 figure and 1 table.)
