Pizza Tag

Written By Lee Hartley

Set-Up

Create an area. Select one, two, or three students to be the chefs. The rest of the students line up along one end line.

Then assign a pizza ingredient to each student, e.g. student 1 = cheese, student 2 = pepperoni, student 3 = pineapple, student 4 = sausage, student 5 = cheese, student 6 = pepperoni, etc.

How to Play

The chef(s) call out a pizza ingredient, 'CHEESE.' The students designated as 'cheese' attempt to run across to the opposite side of the area. Without getting tagged by the chef(s).

If a student is tagged, they must go into the oven.

Once the chefs have one or two of each ingredient for their pizza in the oven, the game ends, and you select new chefs.

Variation

To make the game fun, ask the kids for different ingredient options for the pizza. For instance, students may say gummy worms, potatoes, and lego.
