This week me and my inquiry group accepted a challenge from our teacher. The challenge was to work as a team to explore and research as many information there is we can find about the Ancient Olympic Games. (the Ancient Olympic Games were only for men because back in 776 BC women’s weren’t important, same thing with their school in 776 BC, womens were only allowed to cook and clean while the men athletes compete in the Ancient Olympic Games, held every 4 years from Zeus, father of all Gods. Women’s also had their own god to honour, Hera, Zeus’s wife, She also had her own games, which allowed running, clothing unlike Zeus’s games, making choice about the distance of the races) Me and my group also made a presentation about the Ancient Olympics Games to present infront of our class.
I found this challenge interesting because I have learnt about a sport I didn’t know to exist.
Fun Fact: Hera (Zeus’s wife) is Zeus’s sister.
