Time - Report & sign in at the lobby between 12:30 – 12:35. Kindergarten Field day will

start at 12:45

Location – All stations are in the recess field across the street from the school.

Activity - Students get 2 turns to throw the “javelin” for distance. There will be a measuring tape on the ground, running the length of the throwing area. One student can throw on each side of the tape. Have students waiting for a turn stay behind waiting line so throwers can run a few steps. Tell the thrower their score from the tape measure. Have the students retrieve the javelins, just make sure they are careful and step over the measuring tape so they won’t trip. Also have both throwers retrieve at the same time so no one gets hit by a javelin. Carry Javelin back to the starting area, don’t throw it back.

Reminders – At the end of field day, please bring the equipment from your station into the

Gym, including the measuring tape (be careful winding it up), stake, & cones.

KINDERGARTEN GAME DIRECTIONS - BUBBLES

The recess field across the street and find your station.

Time - Report & sign in at the lobby between 12:30 – 12:35. Kindergarten Field day will

start at 12:45

Location – All stations are in the recess field across the street from the school.

Activity - Allow students 3-5 minutes to play at the bubbles (that’s if someone is waiting for a turn). There will be 5-7 pans filled with bubble solution and several homemade bubble wands in each pan. There might also be smaller types of bubble wands with individual bubble holders. Make sure students lift the wand up S-L-O-W-L-Y!!!! AND GENTLY AND SLOWLY WAVE THE WAND. They will get more and bigger bubbles and it will be safer for all. DON’T let students fling the bubble wand as it is soap and will burn if it gets in anyone’s eyes. If a student is having a problem making bubbles, demonstrate or even hold their hand and show them how to lift the wand and wave it slowly. I will leave a beach towel so students can wipe their hands when done. If students are not playing at the bubble station, the volunteers can make bubbles and this usually gets students to come and play.

Reminders – At the end of field day, please bring the equipment from your station into the

gym. Please pour the bubble solution back into the bubble jugs and bring

everything back into the gym (pans; wands; bubble jugs & towels).

o Wear sunscreen and comfortable clothing and footwear.

o Please do not bring any one else with you if you are volunteering at a station.

o Return the laminated directions to school (place on stage or with your equipment)

KINDERGARTEN GAME DIRECTIONS – Toss Games

The recess field across the street and find your station.

Time - Report & sign in at the lobby between 12:30 – 12:35. Kindergarten Field day will

start at 12:45

Location – All stations are in the recess field across the street from the school.

Activity - Students get a chance to toss balls and braided rings at each target. After taking their turn and throwing the balls or rings, the student should retrieve them and put them back at the throwing line. For the skee ball / basketball throw (pictured on the right), students get 3-4 balls to shoot a basket or try to throw or roll them into the holes. If the ball goes into one of the holes, it should travel down the tunnel and come out the bottom. Sometimes the ball gets stuck in the tunnel, you just stick your hand inside one of the holes, pinch the netting and pull the tunnel up to make the balls roll down. After the student shoots their balls, they should get the balls ready for the next person. Ring toss and bean bag toss can be played by a single student or against another student. These 2 games will be near each other. Most students will know how to play – just step in and help out as needed.

Reminders – At the end of field day, please bring the equipment from your station into the

gym. Wear sunscreen and comfortable clothing and footwear.

o Please do not bring any children if you are volunteering at a station.

start at 12:45

Activity - Students maneuver one at a time through the course (over, under, around and through). If there is a long line, you can start the next person when the student on the course has passed the half way mark. Have students do every part of the course (if they miss something, they should stop and do it). The idea is to go as fast as you can while negotiating all of the obstacles on the course. PLEASE CONTROL THE COURSE - students go one at a time (can start next student when 1st student is past the halfway point).

Reminders – At the end of field day, please bring the equipment from your station into the

gym. When removing anything that is staked into the ground, make sure to get

the stakes or pegs that are in the ground too. I left some bags and boxes to

carry equipment back into school.

Kindergarten Station Directions – “GAMES” (Aqua Play Set; Marble Run; Flexi Blocks)

The recess field across the street and find your station.

Time - Report & sign in at the lobby between 12:30 – 12:35. Kindergarten Field day will

start at 12:45

Location – All stations are in the recess field across the street from the school.

Activity -

Aqua Play Sets - Students free play with the boats and the water way. Use your judgement on the number os students playing at each play set at one time. If it is getting too crowded, limit the number of students (4-8) and then limit the time at the station. If people are waiting, after 3-4 minutes have students playing go to a different area. Please make sure students do not splash water on another student, and they treat the equipment in a proper manner. Refill water as needed from the container. If the container of water gets low, refill at nearby hose.

At the end of the morning, PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THE BLUE AQUA PLAYSETS APART, keep them in one piece and carry them back into the gym.

Marble Runs - There will be multiple marble runs set up on blankets. Usually it works best if each marble run has 2-4 students playing there (each student can have a few marbles). Students place marbles in the top (or somewhere on the course) and watch it roll down. If there is a lot of interest and students are waiting to play, you will have to tell those who have had a turn to go try another station. Since K field day is very brief, do not allow the students to take the marble runs apart to make a new one – this takes too much time. At the end of the field day, you can break down most of the marble runs and put the pieces into the boxes. The blue/red primary colored marble runs should not be taken apart – there are 2. Try to put the marbles in the zip lock bag or Tupperware container.
