 In January of 2006, the Middle School students took two weeks in the afternoons to learning about Italy.  We choose Italy because the 2006 Winter Olympics was held in Turin, Italy. Some of the special things we did during this time was a picture slide show of Italian cities by Miss M. Pell, a scavenger hunt of Italian facts from webpages students made, and special classes about geography, cooking, ancient Rome, art, etc, given by our own teachers.  On Friday of the first week, we had our own Winter Olympics.  The second week, each student needed to pick a Italian topic to do a project and paper on.  These were presented at the end of the week, along with a special Italian luncheon.  It was a very worthwhile week.
