Chariot Racing in Gym

In gym our class has been working on the ancient Greek Olympics. We've done foot racing, arm and leg wrestling, standing long jump, discus, and chariot racing. For the chariot racing we used rugs and harnesses  that Mrs. Taylor got for an Iditarod reenactment and we had one rider and four or five "horses". We were in four city-state teams, Sparta, Athens, Corinth, and Argos.

 The winning team from the first race was the
Corinthians.

  1. I think we need to let adults do chariot rides - it would be a great fundraiser and we could go around the circle in the parking lot. Go 5/6!
