Among our projects,Our girls wrote an olympic anthem of their own. With the help of two volunteers they were able to write the music too. The same mother who is a pianest helped them learn the Olympic Anthem and they will sing both songs at their court of awards. They also researched Olympic games and wrote an essay regarding their chosen sports. They also sampled Chinese foods and learned to use chop sticks. They learned the signifcance of the five rings and what their colors mean. One of our mothers attened the Olympics several years ago and described her experience. Also, one of the alternate rowers on Americas Olympic team is the son of a friend and will be going to China's Olympics this summer. We discused what a mascot was and each child designed a mascot for the Chinese Olympics. We did more but it would take much more room than I have to tell you, but I can say the Girls ages 7 to 10 enjoyed everything.
