The 2018 GHES Olympic Challenges
Olympic athletes get up early to train. Guess who’s up with them planning lessons and grading papers? Just like ice hockey and the bobsled teams, you perform miracles with your teaching teammates! You know that last lap of speed skating on ice? That dash is just like teaching 25 students in May!
GHES STAFF, you are the DREAM TEAM!!!
Go For The Gold!
Complete 3 of the challenges below next week and be rewarded with a prize!
Take 1 hour for YOU. Will it be Netflix? A bubble bath? Your choice!
Write out 3 valentines for your colleagues and leave it in their mailbox as a nice surprise!
Make 2 positive phone calls home.
*gasp!* Leave that teacher bag at school one night. (on purpose!)
Exercise for 30 minutes.
Tweet or Facebook a positive note about a colleague, a proud moment in your teaching, an anonymous student celebration, or something special that you just love about GHES.
LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
Olympic Maker Space Idea
Check out this project that was inspired by the collaboration of the technology resource teacher and librarian at Mechanicsville Elementary! It's designed for 5th grade; however, can easily be differentiated for any grade level:
