2010 Extended Day Winter Olympics
The Olympic Torch has arrived at the Agassiz! Specifically it’s in the hands of the extended day kids.
Ann and the kids made a poster of all the sports they could think up to be a part of the ceremonies. Our world champions will demonstrate their skills in the following categories (please do not attempt to try this at home, these kids are professionals):
…Things you can do with balls: ball throwing, ball kicking, baseketball, baseball, tennis, football, soccer
…Things you can do in water: fishing, swimming, diving
…Things you can do on land: running racing, ice skating, sledding, paper airplane throwing, skiing, bird racing (yup)
…and things you could do with wheels (varoom!): truck racing, race car driving, biking.
Thursday’s sport was the Long Jump. Depending on how far you jumped, you either got 1 kiss, 2 kisses, or 3 kisses AND an award! Ann is coming up with all different types of awards for them – ones you can hold, wear, eat – and yesterday’s was a little bookmark with their names on top.
We’ll do as many of these sport challenges as we can! Stay tuned!
