How to play

Nominate four students as taggers and have them put on the colour bands. Taggers attempt to tag free runners. Once tagged a runner must place one hand on the part of their body where they were tagged. The runner is free to run around after the tag but must keep their hands in place. When tagged a second time they repeat the process by placing their other hand where they were tagged and continue to run around with both hands on appropriate body parts. If tagged a third time they automatically become a tagger and put on a colour band. Games continue until only one student is left as the runner or until a timer is up.
