From Past to Present 



Above I have placed a link for all of you to watch, and hope you enjoy it as much as I did. In the video you will clearly see the similarities and differences between the ancient and modern Olympics. You will be able to visually see the changes that have come across during the years. After all we have we read, and watched you now might have a different perspective about the origin of the Olympics. Most importantly you will have developed an appreciation for ancient traditions, and how they are still celebrated today. What this in mind remember:
  Don't take anything you do for granted, because you do not know how valuable it can be in the future.

Testing our Knowledge

We have spent some time reading, and watching videos on the Ancient Greek Olympics. Now, I would like us to see how much we have really learned from all the new information we have been exposed too. I have included a link below, which will lead you to a QUIZ on the Ancient Olympics. Don't worry about your grade only you will know what you scored. The purpose of this is for you to see how much you know, and discover something you did not know. 
This is another way of having fun while learning! 
 Feel free to share with your classmates anything new you got from taking the quiz. Finally, I would like each of you to come up with your own Quiz (a minimum of five questions) and share with your classmates so you can each learn from one another. 
Have fun being the teacher, and challenge your "students"
