Rob.the.Nest .............................. By RM * at * School || *EXAMPLE*** What we liked** The game was exciting and very easy to follow. We liked that the game could be played indoors or outdoors. We liked experimenting with longer and shorter time-limits. It was easy to set up too. Having all the balls in the middle created some accidents so we played it with two ball areas. Waiting for your turn to run was a bit boring so we used numbered balls and had to get consecutive chains. (e.g ball 4,5,6) That meant we had to watch where each numbered ball went. Heres a photo of us playing... Thanks for sharing your game with us! Room* at School || Room 1 Chisnallwood Intermediate Ms de Rouw || __Positives__ -Tackling - don't often get a chance to tackle at school -People played within the boundaries of fun -Tapping rule is great -Gender didn't matter with tackling -Safer than it sounds -Burnt of energy, great for fitness __Negatives__ -Inappropriate tackling like dump-trucks would ruin the game -Gender tackling would not be as inclusive __New Rules__ -We had blockers. People went in pairs and protected someone from being tackled. -Runners were free -Easy for the runners, not for the blockers -Girls were more involved(boy/girl pairing for blockers -To lengthy and not challenging, prefer short action packed games media type="file" key="Feedback of Bullrush Rm 1.mov" width="300" height="300" || Room 30 (Mr Gordon) Chisnallwood Int. || __Positives__ -Tackling people (being physical) -Defend yourself -The challenge of the game -Gender superiority -Good physical activity, good to be out in the sun running around

 * __Awesome Quotes__**
 * Feedback from Bishopdale Primary Room 12 about Octopus || After playing Octopus we decided to add noodles to tag the runners.

We also decided that the first and second times you were tagged you were not out. Instead players had to continue running with their hands on the places they were tagged.

The third time tagged players had to become a stationary octopus.

We thought this version was interesting but not better. It was too long before the taggers got the help of some static players.

Next time we will play normal octopus with noodles.

|| Cool idea. Thanks || Room 4 Lyttelton West School (Mr Thomas) || Overall we had a lot of fun playing this game :) Thanks a lot for showing us!
 * Feedback about tunnel ball from Room 11 at BIshopdale || Hi guys - we played tunnel ball and liked it. We changed it by having two games going. If you got out you went and joined the other game. It was fun get down to just two people in one game and the rest of the class in the other.
 * Indian Tag

**(-) Not so cool: What we would change: (sorry no photo yet...) || What we would change: having more teams (4) so less wait time ||
 * (+) What we thought was cool:
 * It's good for your fitness
 * Makes a change to normal tag
 * Requires strategy and team cooperation
 * It's fun to zig zag between the chairs
 * People on the ends get tagged less
 * You can trip over the chairs
 * Hard to get the right spacing between chairs when setting up
 * We prefer to call it "Great Wall Tag" as it is called in some other schools. "Pandas" run and "Snow Leopards" chase.
 * The team that takes the longest to tag is the winner.
 * Try it with having the people sitting on the ends swap with those in the middle at times during the game.
 * Ensure that there is a big space between chairs.
 * Feedback on Kea's and Magpies from Room 1 Lyttelton West School || What we think was cool:
 * getting tagged
 * getting the eggs (bean bags)
 * running
 * Feedback on Long Ball from Room 5 at Lyttelton West School || What we thought was cool:
 * Being able to stay on the base for longer
 * Instead of holding the ball to the cone, hit the people

What we would change:
 * Have more bases so we could run for longer
 * You could try instead of using a tennis ball you could try using a soccer ball and kick it instead of hitting it - Kick Ball

Hope you enjoy our video! media type="file" key="classs.mov" width="300" height="300" ||
