I have the kids sit in two rows facing their partners. I varied the pattern so that they would pass only to their partner. Now that they're good at that, I changed the passing to the partner move to pass to the right. Then we began doing it first to the partner, then to the right. It works like a circle pass, but takes less room and they learn the partner pass easier than the circle pass. Also, when we do it at a program I don't have to worry about running the cups back to the other end.
