Olympics

Here are a few pictures I took of the girls having their own “olympics” after doing some Ancient Greece studies.  (Don’t let these pictures fool you.  We are not always fun and games.  :-)  I’m certainly not going to post the pictures of the grumpy math lesson and the erasing and re-doing of the handwriting assignments.  Hee hee!)

 Our opening ceremony included a parade of their olympic flags.

Straw relay

Leighton wanted to get in on the action.  She was disqualified for improper technique.

What is an olympic event without a “balloon between the legs” relay?  :-)  

Medal Ceremony.  They received their paper medals and they even got up on the “platform”.  We played the national anthem on Youtube.  Once again, Leighton could not be left out.

It was a good time. . . . if only all of homeschool was this enjoyable.  :-)
