The children will first learn about the different periods of ancient Greece, and place the civilisation in time. They will explore how the different areas of Greece were governed, and compare the two city-states of Athens and Sparta.

In the final lesson, we will reflect on how the ancient Greek civilisation still influences modern life today.
