Ancient Greek Artefacts - Embedded Clauses

Here at Hill Mead Historical Society, we've dug up some unusual Ancient Greek artifacts.  

Your job as good historians is to use embedded clauses to add extra detail to your sentences about each of the artifacts we have found. 

For example, These three heads, which are worn and fragile, show the God Of War Aries. 

Can you write sentences, which include embedded clauses, for each of these pictures and post your ideas in the comments below? 

Can you solve the Labyrinth?

In the Greek myth we have been studying, King Minos asked Daedalus to build him an unimaginable labyrinth.  A maze so complex, that no one ever escaped!

Can you solve King Minos' impossible maze?

Modal Verbs

Remember what 'mode' means in maths? It's how often something occurs. 

Modal verbs are the same. They tell you how often something happens or the likelihood of something happening. 

Can you play these modal verb activities and see how well you can do?

Can you find all the mythical characters from Ancient Greek mythology in this wordsearch?  How many did you find?

Mesmerising Measurements

At the beginning of the year we hopped over fractions, skipped over decimals and now we have jumped into measurement..  It all links with our Ancient Greek topic, as we are going to be learning a lot about the Olympics both in and out of the classroom. 

With that in mind, can you answer these questions about measurement from BBC Bitesize?  Post your score in the comments so we can see who can get the highest! 

Clauses and Phrases

We are learning about the different ways sentences are made up.  This week we have focused particularly on clauses and phrases.
