Year 3 and the Ancient Greeks

During the spring term we have been learning lots about the Ancient Greeks. We have been reading and writing our own Greek myths. We decided to publish them and they are fantastic- you can find them in the school library.

One of our favourite myths was Perseus and Medusa. During our 'instructions' unit in literacy we worked in teams to create these brilliant masks and shields.....be careful you don't look too hard as Medusa may turn you to stone!!

We have also been studying Greek art and finding out the meanings behind the picures and patterns. We made some designs on the computer and then used clay to make our ddesigns become real. We carefully painted our pots and are taking them home as lovely Mother's Day gifts....we hope you like them!

We have just started reading the story of the Trojan War. Keep looking out for new updates of what we have been up to!
