EXAMPLE:

THE HOLE GAME

Materials needed:     - Two players

                                    - One marble for each person

                                    - A hole in ground

                                    - A line (distance) to start from

Method (Steps):        First, you must club (dick marbles together)

                                   Then you must: check that marbles are in good condition and are nearly

                                   worth the same value.

                                   Next, you must dig a hole in the ground and draw a line a far distance away

                                   from the hole.

                                   The first player carefully throws his or her marble towards the hole.

                                   Then, the second player tries to throw his/her marble closer to the hole than

                                   his/her opponent.

                                   The player whose marbles is closest to the hole tries to flick his/her marble

                                   into the hole. If the player is successful, he tries to flick his/her opponent's 

                                   marble into the hole.

                                   The person flicking the that marble into the hole wins and gets to keep both 

                                   marbles.
