Sarah: Hi Jai! What are you playing?

Jai: Hi Sarah! I’m playing hopscotch.

Sarah: Hopscotch? What’s that?

Jai: It’s a game where you draw a pattern on the ground with chalk and then hop through it. You have to throw a small object like a stone into one of the squares and then hop over it.

Sarah: That sounds like fun! How do you win?

Jai: You have to complete the pattern without stepping on any lines or losing your balance. It takes some practice but it’s really fun!

Sarah: Can I try?

Jai: Of course! Let me show you how to play.
