Greek day.

In year 5 we had Greek day




We all came in with a cool Greek costume as part of our Greek topic. Firstly we did a Greek mythical creatures and God wordsearch, then we started to make warrior bracelets. We coloured the pictures on the bracelets, it took a very long time to finish them off. After we had to make our Greek sandals, and we made the sole out of foam, we used other materials to make the other parts of the sandals.




After playtime we watched a short video clip that was about Perseus killing Medusa.We also made Medusa`s head with coloured sugar paper.We had to fold the paper to spring shapes and stick them on.Then we drew a face on the snakes.
During the day we made a Greek salad in registration order. In the salad we had to put lettuce, tomatoes, olives and goat cheese. We also tasted the salad in little cups and 50/50 enjoyed it and disliked it.

After lunchtime we did a modern Greek olympics which included warm ups, relay races and hats and cups.As hats had more pupils than cups,they won 2 times, suprisingly cups won once in the end.

Thats what we did on Greek day. Year 5 really enjoyed our day.
