Olympic Activities update
Date: Dec 13, 2009
Entry: Students are well on their way to learning about the olympics. We have already had many opoprtunities to share with students about the olympics. In a special assembly, students were introduced to the olympic values. As well, we had an olympic torch bearer, uncle to one of the students, come to share with us his experiences running the torch relay. Along with this presentation, a father of one of the students came to discuss and show pictures of how the olympic medals are being made. We have an olympic bulletin board up in our foyer where students in grade 3/4 took on a participating country by researching some facts so other students in the school can get to know a bit about the olympic countries.

Olympic Spirit at Inman
Date: Oct 6, 2009
Entry: Our opening week in September focused on the Winter Olympics. We had an assembly each morning to begin our Olympic journey. We watched a podcast of the celebration at BC Place when Vancouver won the bid and played a trivia game with Olympic questions.
Classes worked with younger and older buddies and we created Olympic Rings for our gym that are covered with individual self portraits of all the students in our school. We also made paper quilts illustrating the Olympic values of Respect, Caring, Creativity, and Peace. These are all hanging in our hallways to help us to keep our Olympic focus.
Each of our monthly assemblies will focus on learning about one of the Winter sports. At the end of September we saw a podcast about the skeleton and some of our intermediate students demonstrated their 'skeleton' skills on the scooters in our gym.
