"Go For The Gold" Nelson Students!
Nelson Elementary's Gym was transformed into a park on February 5 as they hosted the annual "Art In The Park" event. Local artists, including USD employees and students, professionals, and crafters donated a day to show Nelson students different types of arts and crafts.
Nelson P.E. students participated in their version of the Olympics to better understand the real Winter Olympics taking place in Canada. Students simulated the speed skating event, bob sled, luge, biathlon, curling, hockey, and then they will borrow two events from the summer games, bowling and basketball to round out their Olympics. The students were responsible for keeping track of the actual medals earned by their country at the 2010 Olympics and reported that information at each class period.
