Materials: Chalk and a small stone or stick

~Grab some sidewalk chalk and design your own hopscotch court on your driveway, and then one on the sidewalk. The driveway hopscotch court will be for you to use, and the sidewalk court will be for anyone who is walking by to use. You do not have to write just numbers; Use letters, shapes, drawings….be creative and have fun!

~If you would like, write your name and classroom teacher’s name next to your hopscotch court on the sidewalk so people can see who designed it as they are walking by.

~Remember to hop on one foot when there is only one square and jump on two feet when there are two squares next to each other.
