Looking Back to Look Forward - Ancient Greece

We have spent first two weeks of this term looking at what life was like for people in Ancient Greece. This has involved a lot of questioning and self-directed research. Many of us have made links between life in Ancient Greece and our own society in the present, as well as identifying some big differences in the way we live and the reasons why this is the case.

This week each of our literacy groups have had different projects to work on. They have all done a great job using the new knowledge they have learned from their guided group sessions, as well as their own independent research, to make interesting presentations to share. 

The goal for The Flashes group was to make a presentation using Explain Everything (which is an iPad app). They could choose a Greek invention to explain, or choose something else about Ancient Greece that interested them. Caleb and Connor wanted to explain the Battle of Troy. See how they did below.
