This is the PERFECT Maths warmup, investigation, revision or fast finisher task to complete during the 2024 Olympic Games. Your students will love solving each 'Who am I' while practising their maths skills and knowledge.

This pack is designed to use as:

  • Maths lessons/rotations
  • Maths warm-ups or
  • Fast finishing activities.

Each worksheet includes a range of number, measurement and geometry questions suitable for students in Years 5 & 6 to help them solve the ‘Who am I?’ athlete (most questions are revision for quick recall).

Each sheet includes a range of mathematical symbols and vocabulary to assist students in practicing their number skills and knowledge.

Differentiation:

This pack is designed to cater for a range of learners in the classroom. Some questions are more difficult than others (not every question needs to be answered to solve the “Who am I”).

How this pack works:

There are 10 ‘Who am I’ worksheets in the pack. Each sheet has 11 questions related to an Australian Athlete attending the 2024 Olympic Games. Students complete the worksheet and then match the information to the ‘Athlete Table’ in order to solve the ‘Who am I.’

A teacher answer guide has also been included.

No further teacher prep needed, simply print and have fun!

Inclusions:

  • 10 ‘Who am I’ worksheets containing a range of Math questions
  • Blank Who am I template (if students want to create their own)
  • Athlete information tables for students

My class were extremely engaged by this activity during the Olympic games. Not only did it develop their maths skills in a fun way, it introduced them to some of the athletes representing Australia in the Olympics! I used it both as a rotational activity and as a homework task for those eager and it then developed into a project around the athlete they were most interested in from these ones selected!

Thanks so much for a fabulous resource. Alicia Coutts is spelt incorrectly on the answer sheet. It's spelt Couttes and the children picked it up as they were looking for an athlete with 6 letters but the 'e' which is an error confused them.

Hi Kimberly, thank you for this note we shall address! Glad you still enjoyed it!

My class found these such a fun challenge and enjoying figuring out all the athlete facts. It even inspired some students to watch the commonwealth games who were not already and find out more facts about the athletes featured.

My students felt exactly the same sharing how they saw an athlete in the booklet win gold. We appreciate your feedback! Thank you. :)
