Let's Travel PE Nation!

Who doesn't love "The Amazing Race"? After an unsuccessful first attempt years ago, I'm bringing back a more structured, inclusive version with carefully formed teams and diverse challenges.

• Theme is vitally important
• Teams will be created to include everyone
• Challenges divided into three types: technical skills, logical reasoning, and communication
• Point system for grades 4-5 
• Younger grades focus on completion rather than competition
• Ten challenges over two weeks (about five class periods)
• Goal is team building and letting all students shine, not just athletes
• Starting in week three after establishing classroom procedures and team building activities

Take care,

Dave
