Gods and Mortals

Project overview

Develop children’s knowledge of the ancient Greeks with Gods and Mortals, our pre-planned and comprehensively resourced history project. Our high-quality teaching resources help Year 3 children learn how and when the ancient Greek civilisation flourished, and understand their culture, armies and heroes.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogyEngage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.
