My favorite time of the year is just around the corner – Field Day! I can hardly wait for all the fun to begin. It’s like I’ve got ants in my pants. I am so excited!
Since we are getting ready for Field Day in class, I thought it would be a fantastic idea to turn my attention to various themes and ideas concerning this awesome event. In future posts I will discuss the most important thing to remember at Field Day and sportsmanship. Allow me to recommend Mrs. Hooper’s blog on sportsmanship if you want to read ahead. She has provided us with a detailed definition, a great website to visit and her concern (which I share) about the increase of “inappropriate behavior”.
Before we get into more serious topics, let’s have a little fun. Share your favorite Field Day memories or games. Was it the time your class won the Pizza Delivery Relay or the Sponge Relay when you got soaked? Maybe your favorite memory is something totally different. It doesn’t matter. Just share!
Ms. Roper, I ,too, enjoy field day very much. You have done a magnificent job getting all of our students involved in field day activities.They have a wonderful time and everyone comes out a "winner"!! No wonder our students love you so much!!

Dear Ms. Roper I really liked when we almost won every single game in four grade. I hope now that we are in fith grade we can beat that class that we are compiting with this year.

Ms.Roper my favorite memory was when we had to get the pipe filled with water and get to the bucket without dropping the water. The difficult part was that there were holes on the pipe.

My favorite game is the Water Balloon Toss and the 100 Yard Dash. The Water Balloon Toss is fun if me and my partner win and if I end up with the balloon last I throw it at my partner. At the 100 Yard Dash last year I won everyone in my class.
