Champion Teachers can win Olympic Gold!
Get your best teaching resources to the starting blocks – it’s time to go for gold in our Olympic resource competition!
Upload your best Olympic-themed teaching resources to enter the Teachable Olympics 2012! Win the Gold, Silver or Bronze Teachable Award and your resource will be featured on our website and in all marketing leading up to and during this year’s event for other teachers to buy and download.
Launched prior to the world’s prestigious sporting event in London this summer, the Teachable Olympics gives you the opportunity to share your best Olympic-themed teaching resources for use in the classroom, for any subject and level.
All you have to do to enter is upload your favourite Olympic-themed resources to Teachable before the closing date of 9th April 2012. The resource could be a tried and tested favourite that you love using every 4 years or something brand new made for the 2012 games. Either way, now is the time to send it to us and share it with other teachers – and earn not only a prestigious Teachable award but 50% off all income from the sales.
Teachable Managing Director Edward Upton said: “Teachers from around the world contribute to Teachable every day, so the Olympic champion would have to be world-beating in their originality, quality, accuracy and usability. The winning entry will be heavily promoted and the winning teacher should earn over £500 in royalties from the work.”
A winning 5-star resource could include a starter, differentiated worksheets and homework activities. Click here for existing examples of Olympic resources.
