Winter Olympics 2014

The 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia has begun, bringing many opportunities for reading practice at many levels! Here is a link to the Library’s Olympic Webpage, where you’ll find a wealth of reading material in one place.


Here are a few literacy tasks to try on the Olympics Webpage:

· On the main page, have your student read the weather report for Sochi and track the number of metals won by each country  (beginning students)

· Click the red MEDIA tab and read the viewing guide to find favorite events (beginning and intermediate students)

· Click the red MEDIA tab to find sports news (intermediate and advanced students)

· On the main page, read stories about the ancient Olympics (advanced literacy students)

Enjoy!
