BEST FOR: GRADES 3-6
ACTIVITY LEVEL: HIGH
Form pairs. If you don't have an even number of children, have
someone act as a partner to two people. Have pairs line up in three
lines. Have starting pairs each step into an inflated inner tube
and pull it up to their waists.
Run this race in heats. Have three pairs at a time race in each
heat.
On "go," have pairs run to a designated point, turn around and then
return. When they return, have pairs each pass their inner tube to
the next pair in line for the next heat. Continue until all
partners have been involved in a heat.
In the second round, only the winners of each heat from the first
round get to race. Continue the rounds until only one pair
remains.
