Set-Up 1. Mark off two back lines about 10 to 15 m apart and

divide the playing area in half with a centerline.

2. Leave enough space behind the back lines so the sprinters can run through.

3. Divide the class into two teams.

Game Play Remember that rock breaks scissors, scissors cut paper, and paper covers rock.

1. Each team huddles at its back line and chooses which hand sign to show—either paper, rock or scissors.

2. A few feet apart at the centerline, the two teams face each other.

3. The kids chant together, “Rock, paper, scissors, shoot!” On “shoot,” each player shows his or her team’s hand sign.

4. The players on the team that loses the shoot must turn and sprint past their end line without being tagged by members of the winning team.

5. Any player who gets tagged must join the other team.

6. If both teams throw the same hand sign, all must quickly sit down. The last player to hit the ground switches teams.

7. At the end of the game, the team with the most players on its side wins.

VariationsInstead of sprinting, consider using bear crawls, broad jumps, single-leg hops, walks with an angry-gorilla back or skipping.
