Do you have Olympic Games Teaching materials?
 

Hi,
I guess with the olympic games coming up in August, this is a perfect time to teach words and expressions related to olympic games and sports. My guess is that many summer schools are going to carry an olympic theme along. This is quite good because students are taught language that they will very soon have a chance to see and use. So I was wondering if you guys have teaching resources for Olympics. I did a search and found that englishclub.com has some great literature on olmpics.
However, I didn't find any handouts and so decided to create some which you can use. On ESLTower.com, we have just added some fantastic teaching resources for Olympic games - Flashcards, Game cards, puzzles and more. If you find some more resources or come up with great ideas for games and classroom activities, please share with us.

Great resources for beginners, Kisito. I've put together a few resources for higher-level ESL students for the Olympics, with more on the way soon.

• Skill Builders: Listening: The Ancient Olympics: The Ancient Olympics | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

• Skill Builders: Speaking: The Olympics: The Olympics | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

And here are a few lesson materials and plans that are related to sports, which could easily be tied into several units on the upcoming summer Olympics.

• Skill Builders: Listening: The History of Football: The History of Football | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

• Skill Builders: Speaking: Wide World of Sports: Wide World of Sports | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

• News Lesson: The Tallest Basketball Player Ever (Upper-Intermediate): Upper-Intermediate: The Tallest Basketball Player Ever | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

• News Lesson: The Tallest Basketball Player Ever (Advanced): Advanced: The Tallest Basketball Player Ever | Heads Up English | ESL Lessons

Hope everyone finds these resources useful!
