Ms. Brynn surprised the second grade with a round of Olympic skeleton races in the gym this week. They started out with a parade of athletes and the reciting of an Olympic Oath. The students were able to race on their stomach on scooters much like the athletes do on their sleds in the Olympics. She was excited to award the Gold and Silver medals to Team Canada and the Bronze medal to Team Italy. They are excited to see what game she will have for them next week!
