5. Play "What Time Is It, Mr. Fox" (Similar to "Mother, May I?") - Author Unknown
Ask students to line up side by side in the gym, open classroom or outside. along one end of a gymnasium or outdoor field. The teacher or a chosen student is Mr. (or Mrs.) Fox. Mrs. Fox stands on the opposite side not facing the students. The students say, "What time is it, Mrs. Fox?" Mrs. Fox shouts out a time (e.g. "It’s four o’clock!"), and turns around to face them. The children take four steps towards Mrs. Fox, and he turns around so his back is facing the rest of the class again. This process continues, with the children asking Mrs. Fox for the time, and then taking the appropriate number of steps towards him (2 o’clock = 2 steps, 5 o’clock = 5 steps, etc.). When the line of students gets close to Mr. Fox, he shouts out, "Midnight!" when the children ask for the time, and then chases and tags the closest student, who will be the next Mr. or Mrs. Fox.
