Which Olympic Games would I rather have taken part in?

I have been asked to consider whether I would rather have taken part in the Ancient or Modern Olympic Games. This text will explain my thinking.

Explain how the things you have read have led to your decision using reasoning. For example…

“The text says that the Ancient Pentathlon had wrestling in in and I don’t think I would be any good at that so the Modern Olympics would be more for me.”

“Although it says that there were only ten sports in the Ancient Olympics Ithink this would have made it easier to choose a sport to train for.

Reflect on your reasoning, summarising what your overall thoughts are.

You could draw pictures or diagrams to show your

ideas.

Olympic games I’d like to take part in

The Ancient Games was very simple and had few events whereas the Modern Games have many more events so more choice.

This is because, in Ancient times, they didn’thave the technology or training equipment we have today.
