Next half-term we will be studying life in Ancient Greece. I am really interested to know all about what you already know. You can also make suggestions about what you would like me to include in our plans for lessons.
I can’t wait to hear your ideas!
Ancient Greeks lived in Greece and the countries we now call Bulgaria and Turkey.
Ancient Greece was split into many states and each state had its own rules.
Only the rich people in Ancient Greece went to war in Armour and riding horses.
Legend says Crete was the home of the Minotaur, a man eating half-human and half-bull monster.
I would like to learn more about the Minotaur and Diogenes the man who lived in a barrel.

The clothes that the Greeks wore were light, loose clothes as the weather was hot for most of the year. The main item of clothing for men was a tunic, called a chitin.
I have learnt that all the buliding in Greec are made out of the same desighn and there have lots of diffrence gods and when there do sports there run naked.At the theater there used to do playes about there Gods and Godess.when there nose or there throat srarted to hurt there put there finger in there throat and there nose then tased it.
The Topic which I am discussing about is Life After Death and what I know about that is that when they are dead they go in to the Afterlife and they face 2 Gods Hermes and Hades. They sit in a boat and they are being asked questions, if they reply the wrong answer they will face the 3 headed hound. Some people believe that when they died there spirits are returned back and will haunt the Greeks. There are 3 passages in which they will be in some will face a boring life(if they are both in between good and bad) the other people will face a bad life in Hell with Gods whipping the bad person. And last but not least the good people will face a happy and a enjoyable life. From Haleema Masood and Hafsah Ashraf.
I know that Ancient Greeks worshipped idols and wore different clothes.
Hi, I just wanted to tell you that you’re doing a great job and keep up the good work.

Hi Sidrah,
Do you mean that you have learnt about the Gods and Godesses?
I look forward to hearing about your research soon.

I would like to know about what they were famous for, if they have any famous buildings, their wars, greek gods, sports, theatres, schools, food, houses, clothes, rich and poor and daily life. Juwairiah 5 Cedar.
I KNOW THAT MODERN GREEKS (WHEN THEY HAVE WEDDINGS) THE COUPLE THAT ARE GETING MARRIED SMASH PLATES. THE GREEKS BELIEVE IN LOTS OF GODS LIKE THE SUN GOD . EVERY MONTH A PRIEST HAS TO GO INTO A FIRE AND REPLACES THE SUN GODS POSITION.
I think groovy Greeks is a good idea for our next topic because we have not learned much about them before.

Thanks for blogging. please look on the Internet then let me know what you want to learn about.
The Olympic games started over 2,700 years ago in Olympia,in southwest Greece. The games were held of the honour of Zeus the king of all the gods.
Which aspects of Greek life would you like your class to study?
i cant wait
Greeks worship idols.
In Ancient Greece at their Olympic Games the women where not allowed to be in the games or even watch. Only men went to train to be in the Olympics.
They gave us the Olympics by the way.
Oh yeah and the women who fought for ladies to vote was The Sufragetts

Can you find out a few facts whilst you are on holiday. I have put a web link on the Year 5 homework section.
WOW! I can’t wait until I am in yr 5 to learn about this magnificent subject.
You don’t have to wait. You could research now and then visit the Y 5 class to tell them about your research.
I know that they ate different food and they lived ten thousand years ago, they wore different clothes from us and they didn’t have electronics.
The Greek Gods are called Zeus,Persephone, Athena and Perseus.
I also know that the mythical lost city of Atlantis belonged to the Greeks and sank into the ocean.
