I’ve spent a fair amount of time on the computer today, gearing up for our Olympics Unit Study. I do one for every Olympics. I just like the Olympics. I’m not athletic, I can’t actually do anything that they do. I just like to watch them. So I am sharing that with my children, and using it for their education. Some of them actually complain! But the Olympics are the only time you can watch tv for 2 weeks, and count it as schoolwork! Here are some links:
