The Norwin Elementarty Fitness Olympics were created as a motivational tool for the students in grades 1-4, in an attempt to increase Fitness Test scores. The class as a whole competes against all other classes in their specific grade levels throughout the district. After recording the students scores for the fitness tests the teacher calculates the class average, this is the score that is used in the Fitness Olympics. The Teachers of the top three classes get a large certificate to hang in the hall and each student gets a smaller certificate to take home. The medal winning classes are also announced by the Principals during morning anouncements. And lastly, they are recognized on this website. It has created an atmosphere of increased sportsmanship by getting students to encourage each other to do their best. |
