I would have asked my friends and neighbours if they had lost a ball and tried to return it to its owner.

Question 2.
Imagine what happens to the hockey ball after it is taken away by the scooter. Where does it go? Who finds it?
Answer:
I think when the scooterist finds the ball in his basket at his home, he might have given it to a child who would play with that ball as he does not know whose ball it is.

Notice that the scooterist is wearing a helmet. Why is it important to wear a helmet? Should the pillion rider also wear a helmet?

Let us do

Prepare a board game to play ‘Tigers and Goats’.

1. Take a square piece of cardboard.
2. Paste a chart paper on it.
3. Draw the pattern as shown in the picture.
4. Collect two different types of pebbles—three big pebbles and thirteen smaller ones. Paint them red for tigers and green for goats. Keep three similar pebbles for tigers and thirteen similar pebbles for goats.

How to play the game?

• At least two players are needed to play the game. One player represents the ‘Goat’ and the other represents the ‘Tiger’.
• If you are playing as the ‘Tiger’, your objective would be to ‘defeat’ five goats. If you are playing as the ‘Goat’, your objective would be to surround all three tigers such that the tigers cannot make a move.
• Both the pebbles can be placed on the intersecting points. The goat player places a pebble first on any intersection Next, the tiger places a tiger stone on any intersection, as indicated.
• The tiger may jump over the goat to the next intersection. If so, the goat is considered ‘captured’ and will be out of the board.
• In order to prevent the tiger from jumping over the goat, the next intersection has to be covered. So the goat player places another pebble at that intersection.
• The goat player places one goat on the board at a time. The tiger player can either place the tiger stone or move.
• But, the goats cannot move until all thirteen of them are on the board. The tigers must attempt to ‘capture’ the goats by jumping over them into a free space, the goat is then taken off the board.
