Ancient Greek Democracy

Lesson: History

Class: Year 5/6: Aventurine Year: 2022 - 2023

The children acted out two different scenarios to support their learning about Greek democracy. One scenario was based on a criminal court and one based on the greek assembly. They passed a law that slaves should be paid and convicted a slave(Bella!!!) that had killed her slave owner because she treated her slave poorly(Faye). Niall was the logographer(professional speech writer), the group of boys were in the boule and the whole class voted democractically.
