Abstract
According to research report of physical strength and athletic capability done by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, there is a decline of athletic capability among elementary school students specially their throwing abilities. Therefore, we need to go ahead to develop and introduce teaching materials to enhance throwing ability to be used in class and to develop the groundwork to playing sports throughout one's life.In this study, We paid attention to throwing ability among fundamental athletic abilities, and devised a targeted game teaching material, “Rocket Ball Golf”, The game was designed to enhance throwing ability as well as to awaken the students' will to learn. The game was introduced in a 4th grader class. We examined the effectiveness of the material in terms of improving throwing ability as well as influencing students' emotional state. As a result, We confirmed that the Rocket Ball Golf teaching material can enhance the throwing ability while the students are having fun. It may be said that this teaching material will have a meaningful effect especially on students with low throwing abilities.
