St Basil Cathedral Printable Project

What an amazing piece of architecture! It was built under the rule of Ivan "the terrible" and it is said that he blinded the architect after its creation, so that he might never build anything so beautiful again. It was almost destroyed under Stalin, but luckily the building was spared. Today I thought I would share a project I did with the children I work with. Some of you maybe aware that I am a licensed mental health therapist and board certified art therapist. I was actually super pleased because the kids really liked doing the project.

Originally, the ancient Olympic Games were held in Olympia, Greece, from the 8th century BC to the 5th century AD…. The celebration of the games encompasses many rituals and symbols, such as the Olympic flag and torch, as well as the opening and closing ceremonies…. The first, second, and third place finishers in each event receive gold, silver or bronze Olympic medals, respectively.

Olympics Theme Unit page 1. Jeux Olympiques de l’Antiquité Histoire Mythologie Athlète Sports. Faits de sang, de passion et d’exploits athlétiques hors du commun, les Jeux Olympiques ont été l’événement sportif, social et culturel le plus important du calendrier de la Grèce antique pendant près de douze siècles. « On ne soulignera jamais assez le rôle essentiel tenu par les Jeux à cette époque », explique Paul Christesen, professeur d’histoire de la Grèce antique au Darmouth College (États-Unis). « Le meilleur exemple remonte à l’été 480 [av.

J. -C.]. Quand les Perses ont envahi la Grèce, plusieurs cités-États se sont mises d’accord pour monter une armée. En temps de paix comme en temps de guerre, les Jeux ont eu lieu tous les quatre ans, de 776 av. Les Jeux étaient avant tout un festival religieux et de nombreux Grecs issus de tout le bassin méditerranéen prenaient prétexte de cet événement pour se rassembler autour d’un bon barbecue. Durant les 250 premières années, les compétitions ont eu lieu dans le sanctuaire d’Olympie, dans le nord-ouest du Péloponnèse.
