UNIT 3:
In this Unit, we will know and understand identify similarities and differences between the ancient and modern Olympic Games.
THE OLYMPIC GAMES
The Olympic Games began over 2,700 years ago in Olympia, in southwest Greece. The Games were part of a religious festival. The Grames were part of a religious festival. The Greek Olympics, thought to have begun in 776 BC, inspired the modern Olympic Games (begun in 1896).  The Games were held in honour of Zeus, King of the gods, and were staged every four years at Olympia, a valley near a city called Elis. People from all over the Greek world came to watch and take part.
