This term, our topic is 'Groovy Greeks!'. We will be learning about Greek food and use our geography skills to learn a little about modern Greece, this will help us to make links between the modern and ancient lives of the Greeks. We will learn where Greece is and about what the country looks like. We will find out about the Gods and Goddesses, learn about mythical creatures and, of course, Greek myths and legends. We will be learning about democracy, Athens and Sparta, and what made the Greeks such good fighters.  We will use our Design Technology skills to design our own 'Trojan Horse' machines, using wheels and axles.  We'll find out about Greek art and culture, making our own Grecian vases, and explore the birth of the Olympics.
