Due to the fact that the Olympics were held this year I
will be incorporating a monthly plan to include an Olympic
unit. Web-based resources will provide me with finding
information on the multicultural spectrum, diversity,
traditional and nontraditional games and activities that
other countries play. My unit is sure to be improved
through class input and searching the web.
I have found a mini unit by using a search engine
entitled “Passport to Play” which goes along with my
original plan for this unit. I initially wanted to get the
classroom teachers involved, with each classroom adopting a
country and then exploring the people, language, food,
lifestyles, etc.
I will be teaching them international games, techniques
used, and needed skills. We would conclude with a field day
type competition in Olympic style events.
Basically it is a school-wide event.

What do you think??
