Olympics Colour Cards for EYFS and KS1

This resource is designed to engage young learners with the excitement of the Olympic Games. It includes a set of colour cards for each of the following Olympic sports: swimming, cycling, boxing, table tennis, football, rugby, hockey, water polo, golf, and volleyball.
Alongside each colour card, there is a corresponding black and white version for children to colour in.
Key Uses:
• Classroom Displays: Use the colour cards to create an Olympic-themed display that brings the spirit of the Games into your classroom. The displays can be updated with children’s coloured versions to showcase their work.
• Discussion: Introduce each sport by showing the colour cards, discussing the basic rules, and sharing interesting facts about the sport. Encourage children to talk about which sports they like and why.
• Writing Activities: Use the cards as prompts for writing exercises. Children can write about their favourite sports, describe the images, or imagine themselves as athletes in one of the sports.
• Learning about Diversity: Highlight how the Olympics bring together athletes from around the world, promoting values of respect, excellence, and friendship.
