This is a team sport in which players use their hands or arms to knock a ball over a net. Two teams, usually with six players each, compete in a game.
Matches are played to the best of five sets.

This sport is played on a table divided into two halves by a net in the middle, using an extremely lightweight ball and rackets or ‘paddles’ comprising a wooden blade coated with a rubber surface on both sides.

This sport involves moving a boat solely by harnessing the power of the wind.

Summary (100 words)

The 2024 Paris Olympics will take place from July 26th to August 11th. Around 10,500 athletes from over 200 countries will compete in 329 events. Traditional sports like swimming, cycling, and gymnastics will be featured alongside newer ones like skateboarding, surfing, and a new addition, breaking (acrobatic dance). Events will be held at iconic locations in Paris, such as beach volleyball near the Eiffel Tower, and at venues outside the city, like surfing in Tahiti. Fans should keep an eye on 14-year-old skateboarder Fay DeFazio Ebert and other athletes aiming for gold. Let the games begin!

Opinion ( 50 words)

The Paris 2024 Olympics will be an amazing event! It's exciting to see both traditional and modern sports come together, from swimming to skateboarding. Iconic locations like the Eiffel Tower and Versailles will make it unforgettable. With young talents like Fay DeFazio Ebert, it promises to inspire everyone

Opinion ( 50 words)

While the Paris 2024 Olympics sounds exciting, it can feel overwhelming with so many events happening at once. Some people might find it hard to keep up with 329 competitions. Plus, hosting events far from Paris, like surfing in Tahiti, might make it feel less connected to the main event.

De docent controleert in de slotfase van de les of de leerdoelen door alle leerlingen behaald zijn en plaatst de les in de context van de betreffende Unit. De docent evalueert samen met de leerlingen het leren en het gedrag op basis van het Learner Profile en de ATL-skills. Dit wordt vastgelegd in Toddle. Samen blikken docent en leerlingen vooruit aan de hand van de JdW-planner.
