How to use it Background resources include an ancient Greek timeline (from howsoonisnow), a map pupils can use to locate places associated with ancient Greece (vicky78) and information on the legacy of the ancient Greeks, such as contributions to philosophy, architecture, drama, science and democracy (NuffieldHistory).

Taking it further Material on myths and gods includes a lesson where children use stories as a starting point for historical research and discover that the past can be represented in different ways, and lessons on Theseus and the Minotaur to look at interpretations of history (both NuffieldHistory). Two resources on Perseus and Medusa are a version in rhyming couplets that can be used for a drama performance, and one that can be used for a wall display (both choo).
