About this word search

Olympic gold medals are mostly silver, with a coating of real gold on the outside. Kids tend to find that a little disappointing and very interesting at the same time.

Words in this fourteen-square grid can run across, down or on a diagonal, though never backwards. Gymnastics is the longest. Flag, Gold and Judo are the four-letter ones to save for last.

Los Angeles hosts the Summer Games in 2028, its third time after 1932 and 1984. A class can make a countdown wall with the words from this list and add one fact about each sport as the Games come closer.
