What type of movement activity might involve students using force?

The correct choice involves activities where students exert force as a fundamental component of play. In games like Red Rover or flag football, students engage in physical contact and exert pushing or pulling forces against one another as they attempt to break through lines or tackle players. This type of movement directly involves the application of force, making it an ideal example of how physical activity incorporates these principles.

Practicing balance and coordination focuses more on stability and control of the body rather than the application of force against others. Playing tag involves running and dodging, emphasizing speed and agility over force. While activities prioritizing social interaction build teamwork and communication skills, they do not specifically center on the physical exertion of force. Thus, the choice that best exemplifies the involvement of force during movement is the one related to competitive contact activities.
