random places Rabbits goal is to get to other side of gym and bring all the beanbags

back to the side they started at. However they can only get to other side by hopping. Rabbits are safe in holes but they can only stay in them for 3 seconds.

Also if another rabbit jumps in their hole, they must leave! There can only be one rabbit in a hole at once.

Once a fox hits a rabbit, they switch places. The rabbit becomes the fox and the fox becomes the rabbit.

The class will be separated into ½ again. One half of the class will be in the middle, the other half will be

throwing dodge balls When a person in the middle is hit by a ball, they become a “candle”

standing still with their feet together and their hands in a point above their heads. They have to slowly lower their hands to their sides.

Once their hands hit their sides they are melted and sit down. HOWEVER, if another student in the middle runs under their arms, they

are no longer a candle and can continue dodging the balls. After 3 minutes, the instructor will call switch, and the people in the

middle will go to the outside and vice versa
