A lively introduction to the topic

This pack provides pupils with an essential grounding in the world of Ancient Greece. This forms a springboard for open-ended, less structured work within any scheme. The text is easy to read and understand, so that pupils can work independently. It highlights and explains new vocabulary and provides activities for assessment.

Versatile, well-presented material

The pack teaches pupils to use sources and to understand the concepts of change and continuity. Teacher's notes and curriculum references are provided.
