| Description: |
- Scatter children in the area with 2-3 taggers and 2-3 index card holders...
- On the music or signal. Children move around the space using different locomotor skills as directed by teacher. (skip, hop, jog, leap, jump etc.)
- Moving children try to avoid being tagged. Tagged children must freeze in a statue position or kneel down.
- In order to join the game again and be unfrozen a place value card holder must come over to them and they have to state what place value is represented on the index card.
- For example, if the place value card has the number 456 on it and the 4 is underlined, they student needs to say what place value the 4 is in. (hundreds)
