Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Learners stand straight, shoulder width apart, with the foot opposite the throwing hand slightly forward after demonstration. Let learners stretch their arms and hands fully forward with fingers spread open. As the ball enters their palms, they flex their elbow joints (withdrawing it backwards) whiles catching the ball simultaneously to reduce the impact. Learners practice the skill, observe and give them feedback. Learners progress at their own pace.
