I am sending herewith an activity which includes a Powerpoint on various sports activities which took place in the recently concluded Paralympics. The Powerpoint presentation can be shown to the students and the following issues can be discussed.
1. Why Paralympics always follows the Olympics? What is the full form of Paralympics? When did the Paralympics movement start?
2. What are the different sports disciplines in which the athletes are participating?
3. What are the disabilities which the athletes are trying to overcome?
4. How is modern technology helping them to overcome the disabilities?
5. What is the most important factor in overcoming the disabilities?
6. Do any of the people known to them have any such disability?
7. How have they overcome them?
