TCHOUKBALL

No it is not a misspelling, it is a game we are playing in physical education classes. The game comes from Switzerland and focuses on teamwork and communication, skills we are really trying to develop in our students. The students throw a ball (Tchouk) into a rebound frame and the other team tries to catch it. The frames are similar to the "pitch back" frames we used to use as kids. The game is a lot of fun and offers a chance for everyone to participate. The attached video clip will give you a better explanation of the game. Hopefully warmer weather is coming and we will soon be getting back outside with our physical education classes. Please remember to have students bring in deodorant and a change of shirt for class. This is especially important in grades 4 and above. As always please contact us with any questions.
