7.+Field+Day

 = **Lesson Description** =

This lesson provides 25 ideas for activities to liven up your field day with fun. The emphasis in a few of the activities is on skill; but the emphasis in all the activities is on achieving success and having fun! The activities listed below all can be completed by individual students. Each activity makes a special note of how "winners" might be recognized at an award ceremony. Winners should be recognized by grade level. To avoid placing the emphasis too strongly on "winning" -- and to avoid confusion - you might simply ask winners to stand in place among the other students in their class instead of coming to the front of the award gathering. Winners might be awarded special ribbons, or all participants might receive an award as they complete each activity.
