Project Day part 2

Today in Honors Western Civilization we finished presenting our Ancient Greek projects. The group that presented today was the Olympics group. They made a video describing and acting out what would happen at the Ancient Greek's Olympic ceremonies. If the athletes were to win a competition they would win an olive branch. They would have the discus throw where they would throw frisbees that were way heavier than what they are today. The person that threw their disc the furthest won. They also had sprinting competitions where the fastest sprinter won. They also had wrestling matches. Finally, they had the chariot races where armored men would stand or sit in a light, wooden chariot pulled by horses. They would typically do seven laps around their track. The fastest racer would win. After the presentation we talked about Mr. Schick's awesome career in movies until the bell rang.
