How to play Shark Attack

For writing, we are writing how to play a game/sport. I chose Shark Attack because no-one else knows how to play it. 

It was hard to check that I had everything because I already knew how to play. I checked my work with four people before I blogged it. My favorite part was explaining how to play. To be BTB, I could have added more tips and tricks.

How to play Shark Attack.

Introduction: Shark Attack is a good game to play at school because it includes everyone and you can never have too many people. 

Amount of people for a netball court: 15 or more

Roles: 2 Sharks (Taggers), 2 Dolphins (Freers), Fish (People running across), and Seaweed (People that are tagged).

What to do: Everyone stands on one side of the netball court. A teacher or person that isn't playing chooses the Sharks, and they go to the middle of the court and close their eyes. Then the teacher/person chooses 2 Dolphins. You want to keep the dolphin's identities a secret otherwise the sharks will target them. Once all that is done, the sharks yell "Shark Attack!" and all the people on the side of the court (Fish) including the dolphins run across to the other side. The sharks try to tag the fish/dolphins before they get to the other side. If the fish/dolphins get tagged, they stand still on one spot and become seaweed. The seaweed can tag people but only on one spot. If you get tagged by seaweed, you become seaweed. Then, the sharks call 'Shark Attack!" again, and the fish/dolphins run across again. This time, the dolphins try and free the seaweed. The seaweed can't tag the dolphins. If you get freed by the dolphins, you join the fish and run across to the other side. If the dolphins get tagged, they can't free anyone (including themselves), but can get freed by fellow dolphins. The game only ends when everyone including the dolphins are tagged, and you can start another round, with the dolphins being in.

Tips and Tricks: Try to group around the seaweed with the dolphins so the taggers can't see who the dolphin/s is/are. If you are seaweed, don't yell out the dolphin's name. The taggers will try and target them.
