The first Olympics, which got started in ancient Greece, only allowed men to take part. These days, men and women from across the planet compete for Olympic gold. Athletic records have been set, heroes have been made, rivalries formed and even a few tragedies have occurred. Nations have gone at it every four years (with a few exceptions) in both team and individual events for more than a century now. Athletes compete for pride, fame and Olympic glory, and the desire to be the best. Here are a few stories surrounding the history of the Olympics.
Good morning Ashleigh!
ReplyDeleteI hope that your holiday is going well. I am so pleased that you are continuing with the Winter Learning Journey programme. I enjoyed reading your post above and am wondering if you might be able to tell me where you have posted the stories that you referred to in your blog. For some reason I can't find them and I would love to read them!
When you have a minute, could you please send me back a message to tell me where I can find the stories? I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks :)
