Field Goal Kicking Accuracy
by James Kinney
Students will create a "football" to practice kicking accuracy. They will collect data and create a graph showing their results. After students will learn about a kicker's role in the NFL, what a field goal and an extra point are, their worth and when they are used. Then, students will calculate field goal percentages and extra point percentages for real NFL kickers.
