For the past few weeks 1st and 2nd Grade have been diving deep into the world of 'Tag.' We have learned how to play Ninjas and Guards, Giants Wizards and Vulcans, and Blob Tag. Each of these games allow students to work cooperatively, use strategy, and have fun! Today we played the game 'Ninjas and Guards.' This game has one group of students act out the role of Ninja and another group of students act out the role of Guard. Ninjas have to creep through a sea of Guards with the goal of either grabbing treasure or freeing a captured ninja. Guards have their eyes covered and must listen for the faintest sound of a ninja footstep. After a brief period of time an alarm goes off and the guards open their eyes and try to chase down and tag any ninjas!
