Introduction to the project and teaching resources
Within this folder you will find a series of documents about Ancient Greece with a focus on daily life and houses. All of these materials are designed for cross-curricula teaching and cover the English, History, Maths, Science, Geography, and Art subjects of the National Curriculum.

Please do not feel that you have to use all of these files and the associated activities, as they may not all be appropriate for your teaching or timetable. The materials include both background information to the subjects covered, and actual teaching materials, including various activities. These resources were conceived together with the intention of providing teachers with all of the information they would need to teach a topic on daily life in Ancient Greece. Thus some of the activities will require you, as the teacher, to have engaged with all of the background materials within your planning, even if you do not use them directly in your lessons. For example, presentation 20, which provides information and activities for the Science curriculum on Vision and Light, requires you to have read about Greek houses and the family, which is found in presentations 05, 07-10 and 14.

All of the teaching activities have been designed to support the students’ core knowledge and skills as outlined in the National Curriculum. For example, presentation 01 covers the topic of archaeology as a discipline, including what Classical archaeologists study, and where they undertake their excavations. Within this presentation (01) there are two specific activities on slides 3-6. The Kmz* file (02) (for use in Google Earth), and Presentations 03 and 04, extend this topic into Maths and Geography activities that can be done both in and outside the classroom. These activities may be followed by presentation 05, which focuses on the settlement (Olynthus) that provides the basis of many of the other presentations about specific issues regarding houses, daily life and the family in Ancient Greece. Presentation 06 is a LEGO Education activity that is linked to presentations 01 and 05, and develops students’ work in the English, Art and Design subjects of the National Curriculum.

Dr Matthew was able to Zoom into our class to deliver these sessions. I was beyond delighted with the outcomes: I have a mixed year 3 / 4 class of varying abilities and the fact that all of the children could access the information and more importantly, learnt a lot, was fantastic. A really different and innovative way to bring this topic to life for children.

Looking forward to using a few resources for our topic after half term. Ppts are useful and amazing activities for building and mosaics, will have to search the school for Lego though. Can you make lesson plans and LOs for pupils.

This helped me to support my son learn about Greece during lockdown. It is one of his topics this term. It was a really interesting way to bring history to life for an 8 year old boy. He prefers to play games and using Lego was a hit! We used mainly the resources for building houses and all of the maths activities. As a new parent-teacher I am using lego in all of our home school now. I am going to tell my son's school about this. Thank you.

Delighted with these valuable resources. My class became engaged and enthusiastic with the project. All colleagues in my year group are using them. We have recommended them to partner schools in our Academy Trust. Thank you.
