Sochi Inquiries and a winner

Below is a collection of photos from our Year 5/6's.

The photos are of the finished inquiries on a sport or athlete from the Sochi games. 

Our focus was note taking and sharing the information in an Information Report.

But before you view the photos, the winner of my rafflecopter is Alison H. 

Congratulations and watch out for an email from me.

Thanks for entering.

Winter Games - are you hooked?

I have been fascinated by the Winter Games. The 'skeleton' has me breathless. 

These athletes (all athletes at the games) are amazing. 

The dedication, training, purpose and drive are inspirational.

I wanted my kids to have an understanding of how difficult their schedules are and have a small understanding of the elite athletes that they are. 

So I have put together this pack for Grades 3-6. They could be used for younger grades too!
