Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Field Day is many things. It is not just a day to let children play with no other recourse. It offers the ability to involve stakeholders, shine a bright light on your program, further advocate for your program, students, and school, and to teach a wide range of topics. When your students think back on Field Day a decade from now, what do you want them to remember? How do you want the day and the process of planning it to improve your students and the community in which they live? Field day is an opportunity for you to showcase your program and your students to showcase their skills.
Think of it as a cumulative exam.
There is a general undertone that permeates some school cultures, which is that PE is just a planning period, or not that important due to academic needs. Field Day is a time for you to show the entire school and community that physical education holds value. It is a chance to let them see what physically-literate children look and sound like. With a great Field Day, you build a case to advocate for more time, money, and events for your program. Field Day acts as a marker of a passage in time. It is a celebration of another school year gone by. It gives the students something to look forward to, and it is almost a proverbial archway to summer. Many teachers choose to use Field Day as a way to encourage children to work hard and behave toward the later part of the year. Others plan to involve their students in coming up with class colors, snacks, and making the day extra special. Field Day gives everyone something to mark an important time in the year with and something to look forward to!
