Olympic Games


Winter Learning
Journey
A little Bit of Info

In 1894, a man by the name of Pierre de Coubertin said it was time to change the rules. He decided to reintroduce the Olympic games to the whole world so he started his own committee and named it the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The IOC had decided to hold the first ever modern day Olympic Games in the capital of Greece ( Yes, Athens ). Time went by and many modern day Olympic Games were followed after the first one.
The Countries that participated were: Paris, France, St. Louis, Missouri, United States of America. Also there is going to be another one soon ( YAYYYY ) and that will be held in Rio de Janeiro in the beautiful country of Brazil.

Activity 1
On Vinicius and Tom episode 3 it all started off when they were looking around then 3 girls turned up and the 3 girls were taking a photo of Vinicius and Tom. Vinicius and Tom were doing different types of poses but it wasn't good enough for the girls. They kept going back to get the perfect shot until they fell of the edge of the cliff. When they landed, they saw the 3 girls rowing so they got a rowing boat, hoped in and started to row until they reached land. A lady gave them something. Vinicius and Tom landed on a building and then started to dance with the 3 girls. It was getting darker and darker. Then they pulled out glow bugs and then let them free so they can light up the night. 

A little bit of Info
Rio de Janeiro will be hosting the 2016 Olympic Games. One of the most famous landmarks is the beautiful statue of Jesus the name of the statue is ( Christ the Redeemer ).

Bonus activity
So, this is the Design I have came up with. I chose this Design because like the original Olympic Games logo it has Red Green and Blue so I thought that it would just be a little bit Cool.

Colour - The colours I have gone with this design is just a simple red, green and blue and the background is just white.

Titles - I just have the words Olympic games, my name ( Cherise ) and 2020 Tokyo.

Wow, Cherise! I absolutely love the logo that you have created for the 2020 Olympic Games. The colours that you have chosen are perfect and I really like the image that you chose. It looks a bit like waves or rays of light. Awesome.

I also really liked reading your summary of the Tom and Vinicius episode. My favourite part of clip was when they released the glow bugs and they lit up the sky. I thought that it was beautiful! What was your favourite part?

Speaking of favourites, the beehive is one of my favourite landmarks in New Zealand as well. It is so unique and iconic. I have never had the chance to tour the beehive but I was able to go to Wellington a few months ago for a visit. The next time I am able to get to the city I will definitely visit the 'hive!

Keep up the great work with your blogging. You are doing so well!

Cheers, Rachel
