Marathon Match

Running is a great VERB! Find the two identical runners below.

Here is a game full of VERBS. Read the directions. Underline every VERB. Then find some pals and play! 1. Find 5 or more pals. 2. Line up in a long, straight line. 3. Have each player put their hands on the shoulders of the player in front of them. 4. The first person is the dragon’s head. The last person is the dragon’s tail.

5. On the signal of “go,” the head tries to catch the tail. The tail lashes from left to right to escape the head.

6. The whole dragon body must move with the head and remain unbroken. If the head succeeds in tagging the tail, they may continue to be the head. If the body breaks before the head catches the tail, the head becomes the tail and the next in line is the head.
