Movement skills/concepts

Sustained hopping, hopping for speed, and to evade an opponent, balance (static and dynamic).

Set-up

  • Bands to identify the taggers, discs/spots. Grass or hard area.
  • Groups of approximately 10, including two to three taggers (each wearing a band) per group.

Activity

This simple tag game incorporates hopping only. Taggers hop to tag other participants who are also hopping within the designated area. When a person is tagged, the tagger gives their band to that person, who then becomes the tagger, while the previous tagger joins the rest of the group. You cannot be tagged if you are standing in a stork balance on one of the discs in the area.

  • hopping only
  • heads up to see where they are going
  • using arms for balance
  • changing hopping legs (using one only will get very tiring)

Variations

Vary locomotor skill: Leap, jump, or skip.
