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

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

On Tuesday, 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.

, We explored the lives of Anglo Saxon monks which is part of our History topic this term. Richard really brought the past to life as he shared many aspects of Anglo Saxon times with us.
