Olympic Medals

Look at the graph on pages 2 and 3 in Time for Kids. Why do you think these five countries are the ones with so many gold medals? What do you think the athletes in these countries do that make them win so many gold, silver, and bronze medals?

Class,

I think the 5 countries have a lot of medals because they practice over and over again.

I think they practice several hours a day and stretches before any thing and listens to there coach to get ideas to get better.

I think the competitors train so they are ready to do the games and try their best to win the gold, silver, and bronze medals. I also think that the competitors are encouraged to try to win them.

I think that these five countries win most medals because they practice hard and they give it all they have in whatever they do. They act like this is their last time doing what they do. I think these athletes pray before their event and leave it in God's hands. I also think that they get motivated and meditate and memorize what they do and this is what they were born for.

I think the five countries got medals because they worked hard and got their goal. They worked extra extra hard and got medals because of what they did. I think that is what they were born for.

Dear class,
I think that the reason that Norway has the most mettles because they are best in gymnastics because the are so limber. And the reason that the US is second because they have fast swimmers.

I think the five countries receive so many gold metals is because they work harder than the other countries. I think the athletes in these countries win so many gold, silver, and bronze metals because the people they have practice a lot.
