No less than 25 games are described for the OMNIKIN® Ultra, MultiColor and Air balls, each one more entertaining than the last. In this manual of cooperative games, gives teachers the help they need, and to provide them with a useful teaching tool when it comes to using these remarkable educational balls. Each game serves a specific education objective, but it can also be modified server another purpose. To qualify for this manual, each game had to allow a group of players to participate without excluding anyone. A fundamental rule of physical education is to avoid excluding someone from a group, as that person might lose interest in future physical education activities. With this in mind, all the games in this manual have been designed to avoid penalizing participants. We can praise those performing well without ignoring those who don't do as well. We have put emphasis en encouraging cooperation between team-mates. Cooperatives games are a good way to encourage independent thinking but also to learn about individual differences. The student has to form his own opinion in the situation and later he or she must believe the conviction that resulted from these thoughts. Through this process of cooperative thinking everybody should be able to accept the differences between individuals and should be able to communicate their ideas in order to achieve their goals, not only during the games, but in daily life as well. Physical education courses have common components throughout the world. The main abilities aimed at in those courses are: locomotion, mobility, speed, communication, cooperation, competition, strategy, endurance, strength, coordination, precision, and cardiovascular efficiency. The Omnikin games presented in this manual include all of the abilities above. Some of the games may only use some of these abilities, but all the abilities are use d at one time or another throughout this manual. OMNIKIN® WORKSHOPS & TRAINING SESSIONS
