Blankner Science Olympiad
2014-2015
Meeting - Thursday, November 13th
Your Olympians received their folders which contained their events. These folders can stay in my classroom or students can take them home. It is very important that they are brought to every practice if they are taken home.
All students are in 2-3 events. We were able to "deconstruct" some of the events today - Olympians were able to look closely at the rules, answer questions on what the event might look like, etc. We talked about the importance of understanding the rules before we begin practicing the events, so ask your Olympians all about one of their events! :)
Next week we will be deconstructing their other events, and hopefully we will be able to start practicing some of these events.
Information Sheet
It contains important information such as contact names, number(s), shirt sizes.
If you need an extra copy, please let me know and I can send a hard copy home, or email you a copy of the sheet.
Parent Volunteers
I will give you PLENTY of notice, and talk with you one on one if you are still interested, and we can pick dates so that you can plan to attend.
Even if you cannot volunteer your time, I appreciate all of you being supportive and helpful in spirit! :)
