Olympics
By rita

Clip to ScrapBook   
I have been doing a unit on this with my 4th graders for about a week and they are loving it. today we made Olympic torches from rolled paper with tissue paper flames(red, yellow, orange) they designed their own emblem for
their torch. We will be doing a reading olympics where they need to read so many minutes for each day of the olympics. I put together a packet of info and everyday we do a little bit of reading in this. I have 50% of my class goes to ESL and Sp. Ed. so I am doing this when all the kids are in the room. It is wonderful to see my lower kids so excited and into learning about this.
Oh,yes I almost forgot My kids put together a survery which they did with some of the other classes about favorite sports to watch in the olympics and they are going to graph that data, so many fun ideas....hope you have as much fun as we are!
