Zeus Statue!!

This week in year five we learnt about one of the ancient wonders of the world, the temple of Zeus. We looked at a video about the temple and we wrote bullet point facts up into our morning books. Then we wrote it up into our foundation book in paragraphs and this is what we wrote.

In Ancient Greece everyone would take pride in the Olympics in the stadium. They built it for the Olympics and the statue of Zeus. A stone would be held every year, and on the statue he is holding a septa. There is a man called Phidius and he is the person that built the statue. Inside it was made of wood and on the outside it was made of gold, lots of jewels, ivory which was made of elephants trunks. I found this very cruel.
