• Round 1: Pick 5 Countries participating in the olympics that you feel will be in the news the most (Cannot be the United States or South Korea). Each time your country is mentioned in the New York times you will get 1 point!
• Round 2: Pick 10 countries that you feel will get the most medals, for each gold they win you will earn 30 points, for each silver they win you will earn 20 points, and for each bronze they win you will earn 10 points!
• Round 3: From your 10 countries you will rank them from 1-10 of the most medals overall. If you have the correct 10 countries and the correct order they will get 10 extra points!
• Research links are available on my website, but they can do their own research too!
