This year we are doing a School Olympics since the Olymics are this year. We get medals on doing service hours, star cards, writing, inquiry and spelling. Also we are trying to get the most medals for our university. We get points for each medal and gold is three, silver two and bronze one. Whoever has the most points gets to do something really cool! Hope we win more medals for U.S!
As part of digital learning day, teams Excellence West and East hosted a virtual presentation, through the help of Skype, with one of the UK's 2012 Olympic torch bearers. Jon Tait shared his torch with us virtually and we shared all of the characteristics that make Walker elementary and NxGLC unique. We enjoyed learning about the three reasons for the torch which are, friendship, EXCELLENCE, and respect. We hope to have more opportunities to learn with Mr. Tait and his students! (Maybe he will bring his torch to Wisconsin to light some Wisconsin summer barbecues!) Thank you Mr. Tait for this wonderful experience!!
