         The Olympic Sports Challenge

               We challenge you!

 

The third grade students at J. W. Catharine Elementary School challenge you to participate in our Math Olympics.  This lesson helped us integrate our math and science work into a museum visit.  It was a little extra work, but having a purpose on our visit really made a difference in the student’s behaviors.  I can not wait until next year when I can revise a new and improved version.
