The Olympic movement

Divide the class into groups to research one these organisations; The Paralympics; The Deaflympics; The Youth Olympics and The Special Olympics. Ask them to research the history of their particular games, using the prompts on this activity sheet if they need support. These prompts point them to a few key facts but the children should widen their scope and use any other information you might want them to focus on.

Use alongside the ‘Sport for all’ lesson in Sport topic.
