Olympics London 2012

This is my presentation about the London Olympics 2012.

Sarah Walker

Have you heard about Sarah Walker? She is a New Zealand BMX rider. She has won silver from coming second in BMX in the London Olympic games. I chose this athlete because she is very brave and accurate when she is riding her BMX bike.

Wow, did you know she has won seven races? She was a favourite to win the BMX women's event at the 2008 Beijing olympics. However, she had came fourth. Her birthday is on July the 6th, 1988. Sarah Walker came second in one race and Sarah Walker was ranked number one in the world by the UCI in 2008.

As well as competing in BMX events around the world. Walker has also been a sports Ambassador for beef + Lamb New Zealand since 2008. She is a sponsored rider for avanti bikes using their lines ABD BMX bikes when racing.

Do you know what to do in BMX? Well it is something which you ride on. Have you ridden one? Are you even scared of hearing about it? I am scared!

My Olympic Story

Do you know much about Tennis? Well I really enjoyed searching stuff and finding out all about.    

Do you know all the sports in Olympics? Well I didn't know until I searched it up. There are heaps of sports they do. The olympics are being held in  London this year.

Did you know that Tennis was invented in France ..... we all know what tennis balls look like today a green and fuzzy ball, but have you ever thought what the first tennis balls were made of? Well it was made of wool or hair wrapped up in leather.

Tennis is played on a rectangular flat surface or on grass, hardcorut and concrete. Two people play at once. We use a racket and a tennis ball to play. The clothes you wear are  probably t-shirts and maybe shorts and shoes.

Have you seen people in wheelchairs play tennis? Well you know that people in wheelchairs can also play. It got started in 1976.

Thank you for hearing my story about tennis. Hope you enjoy the london olympics.
