Description

One student is the “shark” and stands near the pool wall, facing it. The other students are the “fish” and move around in the middle of the pool, each separated from the others.
The shark says: “One, two, three, here goes the shark”. While the shark is saying this phrase, the fish must stop moving. When the shark finishes, they immediately turn to face the fish.
If the shark sees any fish moving, that fish must return to the starting position in the middle of the pool.
The first student to touch the wall with their hand becomes the new shark. The student who is the shark when the exercise time ends is the winner.
