David and I had the privledge of talking with four 8th grade health classes this morning at the Caribou Middle School. They were a great bunch and we had a fun time. They challenged us with a number of questions which we tried to answer as best we could. We also had a challenge for them, which I would like to extend to you! Can you name all of the different Winter Olympic sports? Do you know how many there are? I will give you that, there are fifteen.
I was pretty impressed with what each of the classes came up with. The most any class named was thriteen. Congrats to Mr. Deprey's 4th period for coming up with the most. Their photo is displayed at the left. All the classes did a great job and many thanks to all of them for playing along with us and letting us come into their classes today. We had a great time and hope to see each and every one of the students on the ski trial this winter!
And for all of you who are still trying to name all the sports, check out the Vancouver Olympic website at: www.vancouver2010.com to find the answer. The website is a great place to learn more about each sport and look at the event schedule for the Games in Febuary. You can even watch a video on the mascots for the Games. Check it out.
cheers, BA
