METRIC OLYMPICS

On Thursday, May 27, we had a "Metric Olympics!" We competed in 11 fun events!!!

FORWARD METER DASH




BACKWARD METER DASH




DISCUS


RUNNING BROAD JUMP

McKay


Rachel

WHEEL BARROW RACES
















SHOT PUT
Instead of the heavy steel ball used in a regular shot put, we used a piece of styrofoam! Way harder than it sounds!!!




"METRIC BLOW UP"...who has the most air? (...and can tie a knot?) After we blew up a balloon, and tied a knot, a metric tape measurer measured our balloon.






CHECK OUT THE "METRIC BLOW RACE!"











Andrew, the artist, made a face out of his balloon!
