Carlisle Elementary School's Annual field day will be held sometime in
May. This year's field day will follow the same format, "partner
challenges", as last year's. A "partner challenge" field day fosters
cooperation, skill development, decicion making, sportsmanship, and responsibility.
In this type of field day format, students are paired with a partner for
the day. There will be as many as 30 or more partner events and 5
or more group activities for the students to participate in.
The activities for this year's field day all have a purpose. Most
of the events reinforce a sport skill learned during the year. Some
are life long sport skills or games from another country. All events
call for good sportsmanship and bring good competion. Partners are
not scheduled to go the partner events, but are given the freedom of choice
to participate in the events of their choosing.
The group activities planned for field day will be during scheduled time
periods for each grade level. Each grade level will rotate by homerooms
for these activities. When a grade level is not participating in
group activities, they are participating in partner events. |
