v     You can change the sports according to your country’s popular sports. I based the table on our popular sports in Greece.

v     You give the sheet to each class to complete and pupils may add sports they do in the blank lists on the right.

v     You add up the total numbers and complete the other table with the final scores for each country (number of pupils who play that sport as well as the percentage – we can work on a bit of Maths there!!).

v     We can actually circulate the final paper so that each teacher completes it and we can publish it on the site complete.
