Ancient Olympic Games: Events Brochure By: T. Campbell Introduction Task Process ... Conclusion Introduction In 776 B.C. the ancient Greeks began a tradition that lasted for over 1100 years. They stopped all wars and each city-state sent their best athletes to the plain at Olympia to compete for the honor of Zeus at the Olympic Games. Although the Olympics were one of the most important events in Greek life, they did not promote them the way we do today. You will be blending the events of the past with the advertising of the present. Introduction Task Process Resources ... Conclusion Task You will be creating an advertising brochure to be used by visitors to the ancient games. This brochure will describe three events that were part of the competitions and will help the visitors who use them to understand the rules of the event and some of its history. A successful brochure will be eye-catching, easy to understand, and contain an appropriate amount of useful information. More specific information about the brochure requirements can be found in the rubric Introduction Task Process ... Conclusion Process The team members should do some background research to familiarize themselves with the general history of the ancient Olympics. Following sources may be useful for this:

Host Cities of the Summer Olympic Games by Harvey Abrams, BS, MAT, Ph.d/abd. Created on Sunday, August 27, 2000 and updated July 14, 2005.

The next celebration of the modern Olympic Games will be hosted by Beijing (China) in 2008.
