Two children to be 'on'. Rest of class to put coloured band down back of shorts, so they are left hanging like animals' tails. The two who are 'on' have to collect as many coloured bands as they can in a specified time. Select a movement activity e.g. skipping, jogging and call out a colour. Children to respond appropriately.
Children form groups of six.
Nominate a child in each circle to be number 1. On command all number 1s run around outside circle, back to place, taps next child on shoulder, who runs, and so on. When all children have run, sit on floor. Decide on a suitable movement activity for each command. Children to respond appropriately.
