Practice andPlay

Review safe tagging (butterfly fingers and USA) and movement ● Pause the game and change up movement (running, skipping, galloping) every minute or so Remind students they can only have one “cookie” at a time and can only pick up the cookie if they tagged the person If taggers tag a student at the same time, they can RSB to see who gets the cone.

Debrief

Return to Home Base and ask the following: ● How did we practice safety in this game? ● How did we change our speeds? Arena/Flag Tag

Show How How to Play:

● Inside the boundaries, spread students out, each with their own set of flags around their waist. ● Everyone is trying to avoid getting their flags pulled and pulling others flags. ● Once a flag is pulled, students must drop it on the ground and leave it until the round is over. ● If a student loses both flags, they must sit down OR go outside of the boundary. ● Students can help pull flags when sitting or standing on the perimeter of the game. The round is over once there is only one student left with one or two flags.

Practice andPlay

Review how to safely pull a flag off of someone.

Modification: Students who don’t have flags can pull them off of students and add it back to their belt. They still may not pick up flags from the ground.
