Good morning Year 5!
Today, you will compare Ancient Greece with the modern world. What is similar? What is different? How does a day in your life compare with the day in the life of an Ancient Greek child?
These websites may help you get started, but feel free to search for your own information on other websites and books (those things with pages made from paper which can be found in libraries.)

Task 1
Create a comparison poster with the subheadings ‘Similarities’ and ‘Differences’. Under each heading, write facts which are similar and different between life today and life in Ancient Greece.
This can be bold and colourful, including pictures, maps and diagrams. Make sure it is neat and detailed, and it is written in your own words.
Task 2
Write a diary entry from the point of view of a child in Ancient Greece. Describe a typical day in your life, explaining what you do and who with using your research from task 1 to help you accurately describe events as if you were actually living during those times. For example, describing how you played PS4 with your best friend would be completely wrong and inaccurate for this!
