Special Visitors
In Social Studies, we are exploring the impact of the culture
of the "Golden Age" of ancient Greece on our modern world.
Last Tuesday, November 7th, our Sixth Graders had a special
visit from two local Olympic athletes from past Winter Games.
Mr. Jeff Hastings and Mr. Walter Malmquist joined us for a
fascinating "Socratic discussion" based on their Olympic experiences,
and their observations about the ancient and modern Olympic games.
Our sixth grades asked excellent probing questions
and were enthusiastic in their responses to our Olympic visitors.
