The whole team must travel up and down the hopscotch “board”. Each team must do several laps or several games, depending on the time allowed.
Each player uses a flat stone; player tosses the stone into square one, then hops over it as far as he/she can into square 2,3 etc. Player turns and hops back to square one to retrieve stone, then hops back to square they landed in and throws stone into next square. Process is repeated until person has traveled up and back. Each team member takes a turn. If stone does not land in appropriate square, or player hops into square containing stone of if player touches the ground with hand of foot they must start again.
