They do this every year in 4th-6th grades at our school. The last 2 years, she hasn't been in a class with gymnasts or cheerleaders which consequently left her with the most experience in this area in her class. What the do is the class is divided in to small group and they make up their own routines together. Then they perform them and compete against all the teams in their classroom and the teachers rate them. Each year, the group she has been in has won their classroom.
They do this for all 3 classrooms. Once it is narrowed down to the 3 classroom winners, then those teams perform again and are then placed by their teachers. In 4th grade, she was on a team with a skilled gymnast and they took 1st place. The last 2 years she won her classroom with her team, but they end up taking 2nd place (they gave a tie for 2nd place last year, this year it was a tie for 1st place). So, she got 1st place in 4th grade, 2nd place in 5th grade and 6th grade (technically the phy ed teacher should have said it was 3rd place, but oh well)
Then in between the 6th grade teachers did their own routine.
