Scratch! Scratch! Scratch!
Mary's usual hopscotch counting is interrupted by itchy spots and time away from school. While recovering, games and invented stories give her other things to think about. Scratch! Scratch! Scratch! links the repeated counting pattern with a child's experience of being unwell. Ask what Mary misses and which quiet activity she enjoys while waiting to return.
