Traditional Game Modification

Background

Everyone has strengths and weaknesses and their physical skill level is no different. However, unfortunately many individuals
participation in sport decreases if they are not successful. Modifying playing contexts of traditional games can encourage all
participants to succeed in and enjoy physical activity.

Task Description

Part 1: Game Creation

In small groups you are to modify _____ (the sport you are participating in) to allow all team members equal opportunity to
succeed. Consider modifying:

 Rules
 Equipment
 Scoring systems

Your modified game will be playing by all class members. Ensure you take note of the strengths and weaknesses of your game
after its completion.

Part 2: Reflection

Individually in written or multimodal form discuss your games features and how you planned on encouraging inclusive
participation including its strengths, weaknesses and improvements.
