Young Fives and Kindergarten are participating in an adapted version of Hungry Hippos. The basic setup is the same, and students sit criss-cross-applesauce on the scooter. They collect beanbags in their lap, and the team with the most beanbags at the end of the round wins the round. Then a new student has a chance to be the hippo. This lesson reinforces scooter safety concepts, space awareness concepts, cooperation, and one-to-one correspondence.
