SO, WHAT EXACTLY IS ABALL1?
An Aball1 set consists of 50 patented balls (25 red and 25 blue), each with their own letter and number. With each set, you will find the alphabet A-Z and numbers 1-9 repeated. This allows for a wide range of possibilities for literacy and mathematics.
Innovative lesson plans have been designed to revolve around the Aball1 sets. Each game involves children working in teams to solve physical and theoretical tasks and challenges, all while in a fun and inclusive learning environment.
Each lesson plan plugs directly into the Australian national curriculum, and are constantly being updated. Fun & brilliantly effective, Aball1 is suitable for children of all ages & abilities.
Aball1 is a more involved form of learning. By learning through play, more parts of the brain are being used: vision, hearing, touch, feelings and motion. This type of unique engagement challenges the tradition classroom routine.
With a positive learning environment, Aball1 motivates everyone. This includes those who need a more kinesthetic approach or benefit from learning in groups, or kids who would usually not participate in sports.
Cooperation while learning also gives an opportunity for sharing knowledge, as the knowledgeable teach others what they know, and the less knowledgeable learn from their teammates. Everyone has a chance to participate with their unique abilities.
