B’Gawk

A fast, silly circle game where students pass a chicken call, "B'Gawk", around the circle while holding a squat. Speed and tricky direction changes keep everyone laughing as they warm up.

1. 1Make circles of 6 to 10 students, all in a squat hold with hands circled over their eyes.
2. 2The first player shoots one hand out, says "B'Gawk" and does a squat. Left hand sends play left, right hand right.
3. 3The next player must instantly do the same, or shoot both hands out and say "B'Gawken" to reverse play.
4. 4Every player who takes a turn completes a squat.
5. 5Move play as quickly as possible. When someone hesitates or slips up, the whole circle does 5 plank jacks, then play restarts.
6. 6Swap the hold and turn exercise, for example plank and commando, or lunge and alternate lunge jump.
