Tails

Learning Outcomes

To improve Running, Coordination

Description Of Activity

All children tie a small braid / bib (the tail) into the side or back of their shorts, or at the top of their tshirts. The object of the game is for the child to try and not lose their tail, but at the same time try and catch someone else’s tail. If a child loses their tail, the catcher returns it to them in their hands (so as to ensure nobody slips on a bib on the floor). To finish the game, change the rule so that this time if their tail is stolen, they sit down & the game will carry on until the end when we find out who has the most tails. 

Notes: We would only make children sit down or go ‘out’ during a game at the end of a game / session to ensure all pupils are included and active.
