- Split students up into six squads and assign them to a tall cone at the starting line.
- Squads next to each other will compete head-to-head on the same game board.
- On “Go” one student in each line races to the cones and places a marker (bag) on top, then returns to their line. Only one marker can be placed on each cone, so use rock, paper, scissors if there’s a tie.
- The next person may go once the person in front of them returns to the line and tag their hand
- Each team is attempting to place the marker on three consecutive cones to three in a row (tic-tac-toe).
- If all three markers have been used, the next student(s) to go are allowed to run down and move ONE of THEIR bags to an open cone.
- When a student (squad) wins, they must raise their hands overhead and declare “Tic-Tac-Toe, Three-In-A-Row!”
- Rotate the lines every so often so that squads can compete against different teams.
