Today is the 120th anniversary of the first Modern Olympic Games, which started in Athens, Greece in 1896. Officially called the Games of the I Olympiad, the events took place inside the Panathenaic Stadium.
The doodle – four versions designed by Olivia Huynh, each featuring a different event from the Games – honours the 1896 Games of the I Olympiad in Athens, which involved nine sports and 43 events in the Panathenaic Stadium. Most noteworthy was the marathon — it had the greatest number of international athletes ever.
Nothing better to honor the Intl Day of Sport for Development & Peace celebrated every 6 April since 2014. 2016 theme is: Let’s play for Sustainable Development Goals.
Education:
Include this event into your curriculum at school and let your students participate in all sport activities as possible.
Discuss the values of sharing, mutual respect and self-improvement that embody the spirit of sport.
