a mat and rescue them to the ship. Students on the mat cannot leave it to catch the ball.
Once they catch it, they serve and try to get more teammates across. The first team to do
so wins.

Recall their answers at the end of the activity to ask what worked and what needed
improvement.

hits the ground, it is a point for the other team.
