Sadly.....our Field Days for 2020 and 2021 did not get to happen.
We played field days games in P.E. class so all the kids got about
two weeks worth of field day fun.
We are hopful for spring of 2022 to be able to
participate in full field days.
Listed below are many of the field day games kids
can play at home.
OPEN (Online Physical Education Network)
came up with a "Virtual Field Day" for kids to do on their own.
Here are some of their ideas for National Field Day:

Traditionally, Field Days are at the end of April each year.
The Opening Ceremonies are scheduled for Monday, April 25th. Kids from 2nd Grade
are invited to lead the Opening Ceremonies' speaking parts.
The fastest five boys and fastest five girls (based on spring mile runs) from
2nd Grade will carry the Torch.
The Grasshoppers and Chorus will perform, too.
Field Day Games take place on the morning of each of the days from 8:15-11:30. There will a variety of 20 games for the kids to participate with their red, blue, yellow, or green team.
The afternoon will consist of the Class vs. Class Tug of War competition.
Kindergarten Field Day is Tuesday, April 26th.
2nd Grade Field Day is Wednesday, April 27th.

We love to have parent support to help run the morning games.
