Olympics- then and now!
For our lesson on the Ancient Greek Olympics, we headed outside to bring some of the sports to life!
The year 5 children spent some time exploring the Ancient Greek Olympics (how and why it began, what the competitors wore and which sports were involved) before comparing it to the modern day Olympics we know today. We then headed outside to have a go at embodying some of the sports from the Ancient Greek Olympics, some from the modern Olympics and sports that are part of both.
