Name of Activity: Turkey Tag

Prerequisites: Practice with moving in general space successfully.

Suggested Grade Level: 2-3

Description of Idea

Choose two students to be the turkey taggers. They hold the stuffed animal turkeys. Two other students are the helping hands, they have a foam hand paddle. The rest of the class are moving around the room using locomotor movements. When a student is tagged, they must squat down, flap their arms like wings and make gobble noises. A helping hand can come by, extend their "hand" and help them stand up. The student may join back in the game. After 1-2 minutes, stop the music and and change turkey taggers and helping hands.
