    GAMES INFLUENCED BY INVADERS - ROMANIA

    One of the games we chose to play for this activity of the project is the same as the English game: the hopscotch. :)) Here are some pictures:

     

    Another game played for this activity is entitled: "Country, country, we need soldiers!
    These are the rules: 
     
    The players split into two equal teams and they hold hands, facing each other, in two lines. In turns, each team asks for soldiers from the other team, in order to increase their strength. The player who is asked for, tries to break the barrier of the other team and take a hostage in order to empower his own team. The "battle" is won by the team which succeeds in getting the biggest number of soldiers.  
     
    This is a variation of the game "Countries", played by class 5B.

     
    And another game called "Seven Stones", also played by class 5B.
     
    In order to play this game you need:
    • A ball
    • Seven stones that can be piled on top of each other
    • A minimum of 6 players on each team, but with an equal number of players
    Pile the seven stones on top of one another, so as to resemble a pyramid or a "castle". One team is the defender of the castle, the other team is theattacker.  The first team begins by trying to knock over the stones with a ball from a particular distance (7 steps). All the players of the team get one chance to knock over the pile of stones. If they are unable to knock over the pile of stones, it becomes the other team’s turn. However, if they successfully knock over the stones, the game begins.
    After the first team knocks the stones over, the second team will get the ball and try to hit players from the opposing team. At the same time, the first team will try to restack the pile of stones. They try to do this before the other team knocks all of their players out. If they succeed, they get one point and also the chance to hit the stones again. However, if they fail to do this and all players are out, the defending team will gain the point and they will now have a turn to hit the pile of stones.
    When the defending team tries to throw the ball at the opposing team, they must not move around with the ball in their hands. The player with the ball must stand in the place where he or she caught the ball and throw it. The ball should not remain in the player’s hands for more than 60 seconds.This player can also pass the ball to other members on his team.
