How to Hopscotch (featuring Extended Day)



You may have done hopscotch the traditional way, by drawing a straight series of boxes and numbers on the ground with chalk.


This way is fun, but hopscotch can be so much more.

For starters, Try jumping with a parter.


When drawing, try one one of these variations!



Did you know hopscotch could be used to teach literacy?

Use letters instead of numbers.

Try matching letter to sound.

Want to add complexity? Move on to blends and maybe even try hopping CVC words (cat, can, cap)


Try this Alphabet Hopscotch game:




Play a hopscotch game!

Write actions in the squares.



Oh no! What if it's raining?

Fear not!

If you have masking tape or painter's tape, you can hopscotch indoors!


If you try any of these ideas, please send pictures!

Enjoy!
