The Olympics


We have been enjoying our Olympics Inquiry, sharing the amazing efforts of athletes from all over the world. Go hard team New Zealand. As part of our Inquiry students took their learning home and had to find out a few facts about the Ancient Olympics and be able to share it.
This is a key skill: being able to make sense of information and explain or summarise it. In a world where IT bring so much information to our fingertips, being able to understand what we have found out is vital.
