What happened in our world? is a crossword based on last week's news events. It is a simple PDF so is quick to download and print for your class. (The solution is included.)

This activity sheet is suitable for middle and high school students. It will encourage students to learn about their world's current events. What happened in Europe? Who visited the US? What did the Dalai Lama say? Who did the Thai police arrest?

This crossword is ideal as a morning form-class activity, individually or in small groups, as a homework activity, even as a time-out activity. (Give them positive reason to use their smart-phones.)

Ideal for Geography and even Economics classes, this week's activity sheet includes a BONUS puzzle called 'What country?' asking what country is most associated with the clues' contents. Bagpipes = Scotland, but The Okavango Delta? Baklava? Tintin? This bonus puzzle can be used when substituting for another teacher.

Don't forget to come back on Sunday evening for next week's 'What happened in our world?' puzzle.
