Notes:

Transition: Students are already in place for the activity.

Activity:
1. Pick 2 people to be the tigers/it and have them
walk to the middle of the gym and face away from
the rest of the students.
2. Split students into three different groups of
animals (bunnies, foxes, and otters).
3. Have students raise their hands to affirm that they
know what animal they are.
4. Begin the game by having the people who are the
tiger/it call out an animal group of their choosing
and having them tag as many people as they can
before they reach the other side.
5. Have the tigers continue calling out animals until
time is up or everyone has been tagged.
Possible Modifications: Have students walk/crawl like
the traditional animal they are pretending to be.
