Let the Games Begin!
During the month of December Mrs. Bushman's class studied about the ancient Greeks. On Thursday and Friday, December 13 and 14th students participated in a 6th grade version of the Olympic Games. Each group of 4 students were assigned a Greek city-state. They created a flag and a group cheer to support each other in the athletic events. The events were "Thumb Wars", an RPS (rock-paper-scissors) competition, javelin throwing (plastic straws), discus toss, and a chariot race. An opening ceremony and preliminary rounds were held on Thursday.
