Big Idea

Following on our topic of ‘Back to the Future’ we are going to look at Ancient Greece

Your task today is a research one. Then on Monday I will ask you to publish your work. Today I work like you to research any aspect about Ancient Greece. Use this website it is brilliant Ancient Greece – KS2 History – BBC Bitesize

Please choose a topic to research from below:

  • Who were the Ancient Greeks?
  • How did the Olympic Games begin?
  • What was life like in an Ancient Greek family?
  • What do we know about Ancient Greek culture?
  • How did the Ancient Greeks change the world?

The website I have suggested is excellent if you choose to research other material then remember to be accurate with you searches (as we have discussed in class).

Today research your chosen topic and make notes (bullet points). Please keep these notes as you will need them for Monday.

 

Have a great weekend – stay safe and keep others safe by isolating.
