Teacher Notes

The parachute lies flat on the floor. The leader standing by the edge of the parachute, holds the box which usually contains the bean bags (or some other suitable container).

A member from each team holds one of their team’s bean bags and goes to the middle of the parachute

They in turn throw their bean bag into the leader’s container

They get 1000 points for getting the bag into the container; they get 500 points if they just hit the container. If they hit the leader they lose 500 points.

Two other team members go to the middle and try to throw their bean bag.

This goes on until everyone has had a turn.

Someone is delegated to keep the score.
