Activity 3:
During the ancient Olympic Games, men were allowed to compete in the events but women were not. In fact, women were often forbidden from even watching the games. In your opinion, is this a fair rule? Why or why not? On your blog please tell us what you think about this interesting rule.
My opinion:
I think this is not a fair rule because boys shouldn't be the only one competing. If this rule hasn't changed then we couldn't have really great female Olympic athletes. My other problem with this rule is that boys are not the only ones with talent. Everybody has a great skill in their own way. I think girls should've had an opportunity to be able to watch or compete in the Olympics.
What do you think about this rule?
Thank you for reading this blog post.

I agree with you Venice.Everybody is good at something.They might not be AS good as someone,but they ARE great at something.
ReplyDeleteI think there are still some countries today,were only men can do certain things that women can't.(I will make that my goal for me today, and see if I can find what it is)
Well done on using your chrome book during the holidays and I look forward to more of your super work.
Take care and have a great week.
Hello Mrs Cassidy,
DeleteIf there are still countries that only allow men to do something that girls cant, I think it's unfair. I am hoping to find out what country stills do it and hopefully I understand why they do it.Again thank you for commenting. Bye.
Hi Venice. I hope you are doing well in lockdown, was good to see you at the Hangout today.
ReplyDeleteI certainly agree with you that women should be allowed to compete in the Olympic Games, I love watching the Women's Gymnastics at the Olympics and would be very sad if that wasn't possible. Claire
Good morning Venice.
ReplyDeleteI am commenting on everyone's blog in room 10 today,so I will leave you a message as well.
This long distance learning is a great idea.I got to see and talk to some of the staff and children via the computer this morning.It's not as good as seeing them in person.
I hope to see some more of your work soon.
Take care.
Wow Venice - isn't it crazy that women were not allowed to do things like be in the Olympics!? I love how you said that boys aren't the only ones with talent, this is absolutely right!
ReplyDeleteWhat is something you think YOU are talented at? I bet there are lots ... :)

Hi Venice. How are you?
ReplyDeleteVery well said! I totally agree with you -women should be allowed to participate in sports... and other things, I believe! What men can do, we can do also! Girl power! ;)
