Term 5 2024 - 'Groundbreaking Greeks'

GG

Our topic for this term is called 'Groundbreaking Greeks' and focuses on the ancient Greek civilisation, including key figures like Alexander the Great, Aristotle, and Socrates. We will learn about the city states of Athens and Sparta, comparing their way of ruling, learn about the Greek alphabet and some of the ways it is used today, as well as looking at how and with who the ancient Greeks traded. The children will learn about the ancient Olympics, comparing it to the modern games, make and decorate Greek vases and explore the stories about ancient Greek gods, goddesses, and monsters. We will retell famous stories, including the Trojan War and Theseus and the Minotaur.

Below, a copy of the knowledge organiser for our topics is available to download in the document list.
