London 2012 Olympics



Term three is about to begin and the Team Five teachers are excited! We are going to base our learning at the beginning of the term around the Olympics. Check out the trailer above to build your anticipation for the London Olympics.

Here is a great timeline about the Olympics from Timetoast:



Extra: Try playing this fun flag game that Room 5 Kidd-li-winks have on their blog. See if you can beat Mrs H's score!

  1. Wow cool Time-line and video.
    I can't wait for the 2012 LONDON OLYMPICS. How about you? What is your most favourite sport in the Olympics? Mine is GYMNASTICS. I love the game my first score was 4800, I didn't beat Mrs Hill but I will keep trying and I will comment again when I beat it:)
    COOL POST:)

    1. I can wait until the Olympics too Felicity, because the Olympics starts on my birthday. My favorite sport in the Olympics is the javelin throwing because I've got a good throw arm.

  2. Thanks Felicity!

    My favourite event is athletics and probably the 1500m run out of all the events in athletics.

    Good luck beating Mrs Hill!

      I think we are going to have lots of fun with our learning around the Olympics. I hope New Zealand can win some gold medals.
