The dividing effects of sports

7décembre

Dear students,

Find attached the three documents which highlight the fact that sport can create divisions within the society instead of federating us - as it is supposedly meant to.

In class you had to write a synthesis explaining why these three documents showed the dividing effects of sports.

Document 1 deals with football hooliganism
Document 2 is a video which features racist abuse hurled against English football players in Bulgaria.
Document 3 gathered two graphs which enhanced the difference of pay and media coverage between male and female sportspeople.

Stoke Mandeville Games

7décembre

Dear pupils,

Find attached the press article which deals with the First Stoke Mandeville Games in 1948 - which happen to be the ancestor of today's Paralympic Games - and its corresponding worksheet
This document helped showing you the integrating effects of sport, casting light upon the fact that sport does not exclude or isolate - on the contrary, it helps federate the society and overcome any form of differences.

The Power of Sport

Dear students,

Please find below the video entitled The Power of Sport, which we worked on at the beginning of the unit, which constitutes a good introduction to work on the key issue "to what extent does sport federate, integrate but also separate?"
