Hop in a Hoop!
Subject: Physical Education
(This idea was contributed by Vanessa Clarke)
Age Range: 5 to 11

Scatter hoops of varying sizes around the hall or gym.  Call out an instruction for travelling around the hoops (not going in them yet though). When you call out a number that is how many children must get into each hoop. 

For classes reluctant to work with children of opposite sex you can call out 'a boy and girl' and they must get into a hoop. Children must not push other children out of the hoop even if they have too many. Also all parts of body must be in hoop - no toes over edge.

If too many or not enough children in hoop all those involved are out.
