About this word search
The Olympic flame is lit in Olympia, in Greece, using the sun's rays and a curved mirror, and then carried by torch to the host city. Flame, Torch and Rings are on this list, alongside the medals and the Podium.
Gymnastics and Marathon are long and stand out. Across, down and diagonally are the only ways these words lie, and every one reads forwards. Gold and Flag are short.
In class, the list can be paired with a world map. Each pupil picks a sport, finds out which country did well in it at the last Games and pins it on the map.
