Today, Year 3 began their games unit in P.E. with some classic playground favourites! The children played "Stuck in the Mud" in the 1950s style, where taggers chase and tag others. Once tagged, a child must stand with feet apart and arms outstretched. They can be freed by another child running under their arms or crawling through their legs.
They also enjoyed a game of "Hospital Tig," a 1940s-style game in which tagged children must hold the part of their body where they were touched. We emphasized the importance of gentle tagging and our school rule of playing safely.
The children worked brilliantly and had a fantastic time!
