TOKYO 2020 - Olympics Reading Comprehension package. Updated for 2021!

The Tokyo Olympics will bring the world together for a festival of sport in 2021.

Please note: Some of this material is featured in another product from my store.

In these reading comprehensions, your students will get to find out about some of the stories about the Olympics.

Find out about:

THE OLYMPICS IN TOKYO with a focus on Japan

THE OLYMPICS IN ANCIENT GREECE

THE HISTORY OF THE MODERN OLYMPICS

USAIN BOLT and the treble treble!

Questions and answers are provided, with an indication of how many marks are on offer at the end of each question. This is particularly helpful for children preparing for reading tests and exams, encouraging them to give fuller answers where required.

As with all of my reading exercises, I try to write content that is interesting and engaging - stories that may not be on the curriculum, but are important for children to know.

Your students will develop reading comprehension skills through a range of retrieval and inference questions, using skills to skim and scan the text. There are also word meaning and text summary questions in the activities.

Just print and go…no prep needed!

Please note - one of the comprehensions here is available as an individual activity. Check my store if you just want one comprehension!***
