The hausewife is whispering to the geese the words (calling word) that can be some food names (for example: potatoe, meatsoup, pancake). Then the hausewife goes to the ofter side and turns towards the geese, end begins to call them home:

                                          

Farmwomen:

Ø  Come home my lovely geese!

Goose:

Ø  We can’t.

Farmwomen:

Ø  Why?

Goose:

Ø  We are afraid.

Farmwomen:

Ø  Of what?

Goose:

Ø  Of  wolf.

Farmwomen:

Ø  Where is the wolf?

Goose:

Ø  In the bush.

Farmwomen:

Ø  What is it doing?

Goose:

Farmwomen:

Now she can tell some foods, but at last she tells the name of food they discussed inadvance. This time the geese run home to the housewife, but they are very carefull that the wolves can’t catch them. Each wolf catches a new wolf instead of himself/herself.

Who reaches first to the otherside gets the role of the housewife.

The aerlier characters will be the geese. They discuss a new callword, and they begin the new game.

2.      The Eagle Catches the Chickens

 

The game “the eagle catches the chickens” is also called “the weasel eats the chickens”, in which one acts as the eagle, one the hen and the rest the chickens. The game goes like this: the “hen” and the “chickens” stand in a line with the “hen” in the very front spreading both arms to protect the “chickens” and each one clasping the clothes tail of the one right in front of it. The “eagle” should seek every opportunity to catch the “chicken”. If one “chicken” is caught, “it” should exchange the role with the “eagle”. If the “eagle” cannot catch any “chicken”, the game would proceed until its final success.

3.Speed

Speed is a game plaied with balls and plastic cones.

 The plastic cones are placed in a straight line on the ground, 1 meter away one from the other. The cones must be of the same number as the members of a team.

 Two teams of children line up in front of two rows of cones. At the sign of the teacher the children take turns running towards the farthes unoccupied cone, place the ball and come back to the starting line.

 When a runner arrives, like in a relay, the next runner takes a ball and runs to the next available cone to place it. The team that finishes first wins. The same game can be plaied with a single cone per team. The first runner places the ball, the next one brings it back and so on, until all the children have carried the ball. The fastest team wins the game.
