Choose 4 students to be "it". Those students that are "it" hold either soft swatters, big hands or gator skin balls to "softly" tag the other students with. Once everyone understands the activity, the rest of the students (those that are NOT "it") run from base to base. The bases (cones forming an area) are marked in grassy area by making 3 different squares using the cones. Adjust the size of the safe areas (bases) as needed.

Students can go to a base anytime they want to, though they cannot return to that base until they have touched another base. A student is safe, if they have one foot inside the base.

If one of the students that is "it" tags a student, then the student that was tagged has to do a pre-determined exercise (Jumping Jacks, kicking a ball into a target, bouncing a ball X # of time, push ups, curl-ups, etc.) before re-entering the game. An area for the exercises should be designated. One way to learn student names is to have them come to you and tell you their name and then do the exercise.

After 2-3 minutes choose new students to be "it".

Teachers may informally assess individual student skill level on locomotor skills, levels, directions, pathways, etc.
