Come On and Join Us in the Olympics 2012 Co-op!

 

Welcome to our Olympics 2012 Facebook Co-op. I’m thrilled to see you here! Today begins our two-week adventure into studying the Olympics and all that they hold, and these games are already off to a fantastic start. Did you see the opening ceremonies? Fantastic fireworks, music, theatrics, and so much more to get the games off on the right foot in the United Kingdom.

We’ve got two weeks of exploration and investigation planned, so keep your globes and world maps on hand. If you were like me, the opening ceremonies began the search for all of the different participating countries—their flags, location, government, and more. Now we continue that international interest as we learn about so many different sports and the athletes who are competing!

As a special new feature for our co-op, I am thrilled to announce that we have discovered a fascinating new website and app that make learning Scripture for a unit study a challenging exercise for kids of all ages!

Scripture Typer has formed a special group just for our Olympics adventure, and daily Scripture memorization passages will be posted each day to add depth and meaning to the Olympics study. Enjoy this new feature—we can’t wait to begin it ourselves!

Again, thanks for joining us here for the co-op. You should have seen the look on my mom’s face when I told her that I would be studying the Olympics with almost 5,000 of my closest friends!

Blessings,

Amanda B.
