MAGICAL GREEK MUSEUM

Zeus, Perseus,Medusa all came to life in y3/4AF’s Ancient Greek class museum.


 Gods and goddesses gave commands, heroes and heroines told their stories and evil creatures  threatened menacingly.


 Each member of the class researched a mythical character from Ancient Greece. It has been a chance to hear and tell stories. A chance to act and perform


 Next, the class worked on a short script for their character. They learnt it at home with their parents.
 
We set the classroom up with lights and plinths and drapes. Classes and parents visited during the morning bringing the statues to life with a touch of a button.
 
The younger children were entranced as they moved around ,listening carefully to each of the characters.


 Some had a sad story to tell like Arachne. Others provided a sudden shock such as Perseus pulling the severed head of Medusa out of his bag. Evil characters such as Hades threatened terrible things.


 Many thanks to all parents for their support with costumes and learning lines.
