Week 32: April 13-17, 1998
IA Name: King and Queen of the Jewels
Grade Level: 3-5
Equipment:
4 hula hoops, 4 bean bags
Directions:
Set up four hula hoops in each corner of your activity area with one bean bag in
each (make sure there is room around each side of the hula hoops for the
students to move around them in a safe manner). Choose 4 students to be either the King or
Queen of the jewels (i.e., the bean bags).�
The kings and queens
must guard the hula hoop by standing on the outside of the hoop.�The rest
of the class move around to the hula hoops and try to steal the bean
bags (or the jewels).�The Kings and Queens try to tag the thief.�
If the thief is tagged,
they must move to the next hula hoop.�If the thief successfully steals the
bean bag without being tagged, they will become the new King or Queen of
the jewels.�The old King or Queen will join the rest of the class and try
to steal the other jewels.
Safety Tips:
Encourage students to tag gently.
Make sure there is plenty of room around the hula hoops.
