Driving Question: How can we create the Olympic games at CVES and foster creativity, unity, and sportsmanship?
Project Summary: In correlation to the Winter Olympics, Special Areas (Music, PE, and Art) 5th Grade classes will work together to create the "CVES Olympics." Groups of students will invent a new game during PE class to be played at the Olympics. 5th graders will vote on the games. The game voted from each class will be played on Olympic Day. Students will create music to be performed at the ceremony. They will create logo advertisements and team flags to proudly present their class. |
