I know this is all about math, but I can't help but think of all the writing you could incorporate, too! The literacy teacher in me has all kinds of ideas swirling in my head now: researching past Olympians, journaling as if you are one of the competitors, writing a narrative from the point of view of the shot put or the discus! I am always inspired when I find you on NOBH and read all that you are doing with your children. Thank you!<br />Love and God Bless,<br />ChristyCross Momshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04951334606458604263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922109062132237281.post-3805461206237534782012-07-19T17:50:02.999+01:002012-07-19T17:50:02.999+01:00Great post, with great ideas!

My boys have worked on some Olympic word lists on the site they use for spelling, SpellingCity, but that's about it really. I am going to check out the resources you listed, especially the Math Olympics one! :D<br /><br />Again, great post. Thanks so much for sharing!<br />KatieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17720459597404449811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922109062132237281.post-72038832808962787892012-07-16T13:31:30.734+01:002012-07-16T13:31:30.734+01:00Looks like great resources!

That's neat that the Summer Olympics are in London this year in your neck of the woods! Your kids must be History buffs for sure with all the adventures and resources at your fingertips :)asliceofsmithlifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01411785385543404159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1922109062132237281.post-84438467986373363932012-07-16T06:35:59.669+01:002012-07-16T06:35:59.669+01:00Fun!

Fortunately, the rest of the world stays on top of these things better than our family does. We also never know when the Super Bowl, World Series, NBA Playoffs, World Cup, etc. are going on. I did better with keeping track of the Olympics before they split the years that the winter and summer Olympics were held. Every two years is too much for my brain to keep track of.Maureenskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09693317239250946604noreply@blogger.com
