Year 4 Ancient Greek Workshop from ‘That History Bloke.’

In History, the children in Year 4 are learning about the ‘Ancient Greeks’.

This week, they enjoyed a very interesting and informative visit from Richard, ‘That History Bloke’.

They explored:

  • Greek Gods
  • Spartan, Athenian, Corinthian and Ancient Greek people
  • Life in Ancient Greece
  • Greek artefacts
  • Greek instruments, games and toys
  • Greek words
  • Writing the Greek alphabet using ink and a stylus

Richard also serenaded the class with his lyre and panpipes and the children dressed up in the regalia of a Hoplite soldier.

It was a fantastic experience and Richard brought the topic to life with his amazing knowledge and enthusiasm.
