Olympic Medals
Olympics is a subject in Soleil that is like a book report usually
on 3 books. Right now we are doing the Gold Medal (Unicorns), the Sapphire
Medal (H.I.M.P’s), and the 5th graders(H.I.M.P’s) are doing their last medal
which they get to chose which medal they will do and they can even make up
their own medal.
The Sapphire Medal is a Medal in which you have to read 3 books 1
can be whatever you want but the other 2 must also be made into a movie and
have to chose one of those to present in front of the class showing differences
and similarities in the book and the movie.
The Gold Medal is a
Medal that you choose a topic that could be anything (,place, person, item,
landmark, etc.) but you have to find two non-fictional books and the third one
has to be about your topic but could be fictional.
These are
just 2 of the Olympic Medals and there are many more, like the Bronze Medal,
Silver medal, Pearl, Ruby, Jade, and many more.
Intermediate Camp
We are interviewing people
before our intermediate camp. We are interviewing them about what they are
looking forward to, and what they hope they are going to learn.
