What happened in our world? May 1st, 2016 is a crossword based on last week's news events.

In this week's puzzle… a 12 year old girl is released from jail in Israel and a Louisiana man is released from jail after 41 years. A magazine editor was murdered in Bangladesh. 21 Pakistanis died when they ate sweets that were tainted with poison. India's drought has result in a ban on daytime cooking. The Duchess of Cambridge will appear on the cover of the UK edition of Vogue. And Pope Francis told teenagers that they won't find happiness by downloading an app or behaving like a movie star.

As a bonus, there's a crossword asking students to match cities with their countries.

These are simple crosswords aiming to encourage our students ask about what's happening in their world - what happened in the world? Why did it happen and where? And most importantly, who are the people affected?

Use the crosswords in your home-room class, in subject lessons, in substitution lessons, in lunchtime or after school clubs, in the time-out room, or even in the staffroom (or even in a staff meeting if you dare).

Keep the comments coming in - we love to hear how the crosswords are being used by you and your students.
