Field Day Update….

Published by under Uncategorized

This is an email to teachers from POQA: “When students arrive at school, they will NOT go out to the playground, but will go directly to their classrooms. Once they have all arrived, teachers will bring them to the gym, leaving their lunches (in a class tote or other) in the hallway outside the gym.  From there, you may take them to your designated section (described below). Once they are out of the building, we will be blocking off the hallways so they do not have access to the classrooms but can still use the restrooms and water fountains. We are going to group the games into sections and will assign each grade to a section. There will be several games within a section. Teachers will remain with their classes and be given about 40 minutes for their classes to do which ever games they want to in the section during their allotted time. That way, you’re with your kids, yet they still have some flexibility to play the games that interest them. When it’s time to rotate, you will have five minutes to get to the next section.   We will have four sections: red, blue, green and yellow. There are several games within each section. The rotation will be clockwise by grade as follows (which will make more sense when you see it):   RED                                    BLUE                                    YELLOW                  GREEN 9:00 – 9:40                  K                                    1&2                                    3&4                                    5 9:45 – 10:25                  5                                    K                                    1&2                                    3&4 10:30 – 11:10                  3&4                                    5                                    K                                    1&2 11:15 – 11:45                  LUNCH 11:50 – 12:30                  1&2                                    3&4                                    5                                    K 12:35 – 1:00                   PACK UP AND TREATS   RED is in the northwest corner of the property including the playground and the obstacle course. BLUE is in the northeast corner. YELLOW is the asphalt and sidewalks. GREEN is in the gym.”
