Teacher’s Great Ping Pong Idea

February 2, 2010 3:12 am admin Sports

In my daughter’s classroom, the teacher brought in a ping pong ball launcher to teach the children about angles and distance as well as force and distance. The kids had a ball trying to hit targets with and of course they eventually turned the launchers on each other. However, the launchers did no harm as they were only shooting ping pong balls. Of course the kids did not have nearly as much fun when it came time to pick up the hundred or so balls that were scattered all over the room. I do think it was a marvelous exercise for them.
