America tookthe following ideas

from Greece

LawIt all started in Athens Greece Was it fair

Created by Beckie L

The Greeks didnrsquot want a king to rule their city so they created a different type of

government This government was called a democracy A democracy is where people

choose their own leaders

People that lived in Greece would vote for their favorite leader to represent them Athenians wanted their leader to listen to their ideas If

they felt like they werenrsquot being listened to they would not vote for that leader again

1

2

Only men could vote Women and slaves were not allowed to vote on a

leader

People in Athens Greece also used a lottery system A lottery is where people are randomly

selected Think about a bingo game The bingo numbers are chosen randomly which is how a

lottery works too Except they wouldnrsquot use the fancy bingo numbers

Athenians used a lottery when deciding on the jury A jury is a group of people who attend a

court case and decide if someone is guilty of a crime

Direct DemocracyGreece

Created by Beckie L

We have a different type of democracy in our country In a representative

democracy we are able to vote for a leader and then they make the big decisions for us Imagine everyone

trying to vote on a decision that would take a long time

United States

Representative Democracy

Greece wanted citizens to vote on ideas and issues Not everyone could vote

though Slaves and women were not allowed to vote

Many people had the opportunity to run for an office position but only a few amount of men could vote Even though Greece said they wanted everyone

to vote ultimately only some people were really

able to vote

Olympics

Have you ever watched the Olympic games The Olympics take place every four years Countries from all over the world gather together to compete in different type of events The Olympics hasnrsquot always been this way In fact when the Olympics first started around

2700 years ago they were very different

Then amp Now

When the Olympics first started in Greece only Greek men could compete During this time there were not many events The very first competition just included running events

but a few years later the Greeks decided to add some other events The Olympics continued to grow and more people enjoyed watching them

Today when you watch the Olympics you will notice that many people receive medals When the Olympics first started there was only one winner This winner would receive a crown of olive leaves This was similar to a medal or trophy that our athletes win today

There are many more events in the Olympics today Some popular summer Olympic events include swimming soccer running volleyball and wrestling Some popular winter events

include speed skating bob sledding and hockey

America tookthe following ideas

from Greece

LawIt all started in Athens Greece Was it fair

Created by Beckie L

The Greeks didnrsquot want a king to rule their city so they created a different type of

government This government was called a democracy A democracy is where people

choose their own leaders

People that lived in Greece would vote for their favorite leader to represent them Athenians wanted their leader to listen to their ideas If

they felt like they werenrsquot being listened to they would not vote for that leader again

1

2

Only men could vote Women and slaves were not allowed to vote on a

leader

People in Athens Greece also used a lottery system A lottery is where people are randomly

selected Think about a bingo game The bingo numbers are chosen randomly which is how a

lottery works too Except they wouldnrsquot use the fancy bingo numbers

Athenians used a lottery when deciding on the jury A jury is a group of people who attend a

court case and decide if someone is guilty of a crime

Direct DemocracyGreece

Created by Beckie L

We have a different type of democracy in our country In a representative

democracy we are able to vote for a leader and then they make the big decisions for us Imagine everyone

trying to vote on a decision that would take a long time

United States

Representative Democracy

Greece wanted citizens to vote on ideas and issues Not everyone could vote

though Slaves and women were not allowed to vote

Many people had the opportunity to run for an office position but only a few amount of men could vote Even though Greece said they wanted everyone

to vote ultimately only some people were really

able to vote

Olympics

Have you ever watched the Olympic games The Olympics take place every four years Countries from all over the world gather together to compete in different type of events The Olympics hasnrsquot always been this way In fact when the Olympics first started around

2700 years ago they were very different

Then amp Now

When the Olympics first started in Greece only Greek men could compete During this time there were not many events The very first competition just included running events

but a few years later the Greeks decided to add some other events The Olympics continued to grow and more people enjoyed watching them

Today when you watch the Olympics you will notice that many people receive medals When the Olympics first started there was only one winner This winner would receive a crown of olive leaves This was similar to a medal or trophy that our athletes win today

There are many more events in the Olympics today Some popular summer Olympic events include swimming soccer running volleyball and wrestling Some popular winter events

include speed skating bob sledding and hockey

LawIt all started in Athens Greece Was it fair

Created by Beckie L

The Greeks didnrsquot want a king to rule their city so they created a different type of

government This government was called a democracy A democracy is where people

choose their own leaders

People that lived in Greece would vote for their favorite leader to represent them Athenians wanted their leader to listen to their ideas If

they felt like they werenrsquot being listened to they would not vote for that leader again

1

2

Only men could vote Women and slaves were not allowed to vote on a

leader

People in Athens Greece also used a lottery system A lottery is where people are randomly

selected Think about a bingo game The bingo numbers are chosen randomly which is how a

lottery works too Except they wouldnrsquot use the fancy bingo numbers

Athenians used a lottery when deciding on the jury A jury is a group of people who attend a

court case and decide if someone is guilty of a crime

Direct DemocracyGreece

Created by Beckie L

We have a different type of democracy in our country In a representative

democracy we are able to vote for a leader and then they make the big decisions for us Imagine everyone

trying to vote on a decision that would take a long time

United States

Representative Democracy

Greece wanted citizens to vote on ideas and issues Not everyone could vote

though Slaves and women were not allowed to vote

Many people had the opportunity to run for an office position but only a few amount of men could vote Even though Greece said they wanted everyone

to vote ultimately only some people were really

able to vote

Olympics

Have you ever watched the Olympic games The Olympics take place every four years Countries from all over the world gather together to compete in different type of events The Olympics hasnrsquot always been this way In fact when the Olympics first started around

2700 years ago they were very different

Then amp Now

When the Olympics first started in Greece only Greek men could compete During this time there were not many events The very first competition just included running events

but a few years later the Greeks decided to add some other events The Olympics continued to grow and more people enjoyed watching them

Today when you watch the Olympics you will notice that many people receive medals When the Olympics first started there was only one winner This winner would receive a crown of olive leaves This was similar to a medal or trophy that our athletes win today

There are many more events in the Olympics today Some popular summer Olympic events include swimming soccer running volleyball and wrestling Some popular winter events

include speed skating bob sledding and hockey

Olympics

Have you ever watched the Olympic games The Olympics take place every four years Countries from all over the world gather together to compete in different type of events The Olympics hasnrsquot always been this way In fact when the Olympics first started around

2700 years ago they were very different

Then amp Now

When the Olympics first started in Greece only Greek men could compete During this time there were not many events The very first competition just included running events

but a few years later the Greeks decided to add some other events The Olympics continued to grow and more people enjoyed watching them

Today when you watch the Olympics you will notice that many people receive medals When the Olympics first started there was only one winner This winner would receive a crown of olive leaves This was similar to a medal or trophy that our athletes win today

There are many more events in the Olympics today Some popular summer Olympic events include swimming soccer running volleyball and wrestling Some popular winter events

include speed skating bob sledding and hockey

Courtney- I donrsquot know what that is

David- I donrsquot think anyone in this class does

David (raises his hand)- Mrs Jones what are we voting on

Mrs Jones- A direct democracy is wherepeople choose their own leaders and

vote on different ideas Today most of youare going to vote but back in ancient

Greece times women and slaves could not vote

Kayla- So how was that fair I want to vote

Mrs Jones- Good question Kayla It reallywasnrsquot fair The Greeks wanted the people

to decide but not many people reallygot to since women and slaves could not

vote

Mark- So we get to be Greek today

Mrs Jones- Sure We can pretend right

Mrs Jones- Irsquom going to pass out a paper that has 20 questions on it I need you to answer all

of the questions (Start passing out paper and pencils)

Mark- This is so cool We get to vote on all ofthis stuff I feel so important

Courtney- I canrsquot believe women and slaves werenrsquot allowed to vote That seems so unfair

(Everyone keeps writing on the paper while Kayla and Courtney look around)

Mrs Jones- Ok I think everyone is done voting During the next activity we will represent a

representative democracy A representative democracy is what the United States uses

Sam- Does that have anything to do with a president

Mrs Jones- Yes it does Sam A representative democracy is where people vote for someone to represent them Then that representative votes

on those ideas
