Baseball is a game where you hit a ball with a bat and run around bases to score points for your team. 

The ball – A small white ball that’s thrown and hit.

The bat – A stick used to hit the ball.

The bases – Four spots in a square (first, second, third, home) you run to.

The glove – A big glove used to catch the ball.

The goal – Hit the ball, run around all the bases, and score a run.

It’s a team game – One team hits, one team catches and throws.

Place a large, lightweight ball (such as a beach ball or foam ball) on top of a batting tee. Students use a foam bat or paddle to hit the ball off the tee toward a target or open space. The bat can be mounted to a stand or adapted with handles for easier grip.

Hang a wiffle ball from a rope or bungee cord so it swings at chest height. Students can practice hitting the ball without chasing it, as it stays in place and returns after each swing.

Create a rolling ramp from PVC pipe or a gutter section. Place the ball at the top and let it roll toward the batter, who swings when it reaches them. This can be paired with a switch-activated blower to roll lightweight balls toward the batter for students who need a fully switch-accessible setup.

Switch adapted pitching machine toward a target. 

Poly spots as bases.
