Student Instructions
Decide who will be the athlete and the coach first. The coach calls out sight words for the athlete to spell with a movement for every letter. The athlete shoots the ball up high for tall letters, holds the ball at his chest for short letters, and bounces the ball for letters that have tails. The coach records the athlete spelling the word, and then switches jobs.
