This winter came in like a lamb and left like a lion. After backbreaking shoveling, downed trees, and power outages, most of us are ready for spring. Yet despite the havoc wrought by a late February storm, there were some great winter highlights.
While the 21st Olympic Games were being played in Canada, the first graders at Noxon Road Elementary held their first Winter Olympics. Students learned about the Olympics in Canada and the importance of good sportsmanship, fairness, and teamwork. They took advantage of the snow on the playground and enjoyed several outdoor games, including: snow cone relay, snowball tally, snowball toss, and the tallest snowman competition. It was a great morning of fun, healthy competition! There were no medals, but in the end, all of the “athletes” enjoyed hot chocolate in their warm, cozy classrooms. It was a winning day for all.
