New Equipment to play with: GaGa Ball
Meadowlark Rules:
The game starts with players touching a wall of the pit.
One student in the middle tosses the ball and the players say 'GA' “GA” for the first two bounces, and 'GO' on the third bounce, and then the game starts.
Once the ball is in play, any player can hit the ball with an open or closed hand.
Players cannot hold, carry or throw the ball.
Players cannot hit the ball twice in a row.
Players cannot use the walls to help in avoiding the ball.
Once there are only 3 players left, you can hit the ball twice.
Once there are only 2 players left, students can start a countdown of 30 seconds for the game to end.
