Summer Olympics

With the Summer Olympics going on my school is doing a "Go for the Gold" theme this school year. I plan to have this out for morning work on the first day of school. Click the picture to grab your free copy.

In May we learned all about famous Olympic athletes and started writing biographies.

We compared the Summer Olympics to the Winter Olympics using a Venn diagram.

We brainstormed words that describe Olympians and made list poems. They illustrated with their favorite Olympic sport.

My Olympic unit has been updated for the Rio Summer Olympics. Check it out on TPT.

welcome to summer!

I am on summer vacation over here. The school year went by so fast and yet so slow. August feels like forever ago. I miss seeing my sweet kindergarten babies. I loved being their second mommy during the day. I'm so proud of all they accomplished.

Heck writing biographies about Olympic athletes! Here is the published book.

Here is another writing activity that we did with our Olympic unit. They brainstormed what it would be like to be an Olympic athlete.

We compared the summer games to the winter games

We had lots of books to help us with this activity.

We made Olympic torches out of toilet paper rolls.

We made class shirts with their names on the back.

You can find all the activities above in my Olympic Games unit. I'll be updating the unit soon to include the torch craft.
