Scarecrow Contest

Salut! Ça va aujourd’hui? (Hello! How are you today?)

For this post, I decided to write about a school event. I don’t have much more to say so, enjoy!


So, what is the Scarecrow contest?

It’s a school-wide event where each team (Red, Blue, Green, Gold, and White) compete against each other to gain Color Cup points.

In each team, each of the 4 homerooms have to make a scarecrow on the theme they have chosen; out of materials they can find around the classroom or bring in from home.

For example, in the picture below, 8 Red seems to have chosen seasons and each homeroom did one of the 4 seasons…for summer, they did a mermaid and so on.

Rules

I don’t know all the rules for the contest so, if you are curious, check the flyers that have been put up.

Scoring

For this year, the scarecrows will be placed on these 3 categories:

  • Theme – How close the scarecrows are to the team’s theme
  • Creativity – How much “outside the box” thinking has been used
  • Execution – How well done the scarecrows are

If best in category, the team is awarded 5 points. For 2nd best, 4 points, 3rd is 3 points, 4th is 2 points, and 5th is 1 point.

3 points are deducted if the team has broken a rule or has used the surrounding area as their background.

So that’s it for this post, I hope you enjoyed it, and if you want me to write about anything, please comment your ideas!

GOOD LUCK to each team for the contest!!!
