they hear the whistle they will change directions.   
Carefully run towards a partner and dodge him and her   
to avoid collision.   
Students pick a spot on a wall and walk towards it, since   
everyone’s spot is different, everyone will be   
moving towards different directions. Be aware of   
your surroundings so that you do not run into   
another students, let them pass in front of you
