Conversations with an Olympian

Trying out another ambitious ‘chat’ –this time it is with a former Olympian,

Sean Smith - Olympics

Sean Smith was a member of the U.S. Olympic team at the winter games in 2002

The idea is to have my students talk to an Olympian, this week. A few of my fellow teachers have been adding Olympic-related content to our lessons, and this would be a great way for the students to feel connected to the events going on in Sochi, Russia.
