Odyssey of the Mind World Finals
Tax deductible
The fourth grade Odyssey of the Mind team at Pacific Rim Elementary School has qualified for the World Finals, to be held at Michigan State University at the end of May! This is a HUGE accomplishment and now, we need your help to get there.
The team took first place at the regional San Diego tournament, and went on to compete at the California state tournament held at the University of California, Riverside, in March. At state, they qualified for the World Finals; they will compete against teams from over 30 states and 25 other countries, including China, Japan, Poland, Switzerland, and Singapore. Thousand of teams compete, but only the best of the best go on to the World Finals!
Odyssey of the Mind is a critical and creative thinking competition comprised of a team of 5-7 kids who spend months preparing to solve a problem in 8 minutes. There also is a short-term spontaneous problem where kids are given a problem to solve (they have to build a structure as a team or solve a verbal idea that is presented) and have to think on the spot. They are scored based on their ingenuity, creativity and teamwork.
We are proud to represent Pacific Rim Elementary, the City of Carlsbad, the state of California and the USA. Thank you in advance for your support! ~Ella Avery, Brady Berg, Sophie Schulte, Forest Southerland, Dylan Tochterman & Slater Todd.
