Synopsis
This unit will introduce students to the AusVELS level 7 standards for the History, Civics and
Citizenship and ICT domains through the topic of Ancient Greece.
Students will engage in self-guided investigations of ancient Greece including:





How the landscape affected the type of societies that developed in ancient Greece.
The development of democracy and its legacy on the Australian political system.
The similarities and differences between ancient Greek societies and the role of key groups.
Students will use ICT to investigate and present their learnings.
Students will use a range of primary and secondary sources and will be introduced to
techniques that will enable them to think critically when evaluating the type of questions
specific types of sources can help answer.
Focus Questions
A framework for developing students’ historical knowledge, understanding and skills is provided
by inquiry questions through the use and interpretation of sources. The key inquiry questions at
level 7 are:




How do we know about the ancient past?
Why and where did the earliest societies develop?
What emerged as the defining characteristics of ancient societies?
What have been the legacies of ancient societies?
Inquiry Process
The Ancient Greece unit of work will offer students with the opportunity to actively engage in
student centred learning activities both individually and in groups. Students will participate in
identifying information needs, formulate questions to direct inquiry, plan their inquiry process,
research and evaluate relevant information and present their findings in various modes and media.
The inquiry process will assist the students develop critical thinking skills and enhance their research,
problem solving and communication skills through independent and collaborative learning
experiences to foster deeper learning.
Inclusive Curriculum
The Ancient Greece unit of study is developed with an understanding that the learning process
within a group of students is not homogenous but must cater for differences in learning styles and
[Type text]
Page 6
[Type text]
multiple intelligences. The unit includes a wide range of learning activities aimed to include all
students, such as verbal/linguistic intelligence (individually writing a persuasive text), interpersonal
intelligence (group work and discussions), visual/spatial intelligence (interpreting images and
creating graphic posters), naturalist intelligence (interpreting the Greek landscape’s impact on
development of city states) and bodily/kinaesthetic intelligence (acting, participating in reenactment of ancient Greek games).
Assessment
The Ancient Greece unit of study includes several methods of assessment designed to comprehend
student’s learning progress and understanding. During the unit student progress and engagement
will be informally assessed by checking work during class, engagement in groups and class discussion
and formally assessed with students engaged in essay writing, creating posters and completing
question/answer sheets. Whenever formal assessment techniques are involved a rubric will be
presented.

Activities
Activity 1: Introduction to Ancient Greece
Introduction to Ancient Greece
Think/Pair/Share – Brainstorm – Mindmap
Student are introduced to the unit Ancient Greece and advised that they will be investigating how
the physical features of Greece influenced the types of society that developed; the roles of key
groups in society (citizens, women, slaves); how beliefs, values and practises influenced everyday
life; the contacts and conflicts (trade, colonization, war); and the role of the significant individual.
Students will be divided into permanent groups of four for the duration of the unit. The following
activity will take place in a group setting.
Individually, students are asked to think about two to three things they already know about
Greece and write these on sticky notes before sharing with the group. The group is to
discuss any similarities or differences. As a way to assess the student’s prior knowledge, the
students will share their ideas by collating the sticky notes on a poster under the heading:
Greece.
Next, the students are handed images relating to ancient Greece and, as a group, asked to
brainstorm their understanding/interpretation of the images (on sticky notes). They must
also record questions that arise from discussing the images; what are the things that they
would like to know about ancient Greece?
The class will construct a mind map (http://www.xmind.com) and list the groups’
brainstorm ideas and questions under the following categories:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Physical features of Greece
Roles of key groups
Beliefs, values and practises
Contacts and conflicts
The significant individual
The mind map will inform the inquiry process for the reminder of the unit.
In addition, students are introduced to the topic of Ancient Greece by presenting them with a
chronological overview of the important features of the period from human migration out of Africa,
approximately 60.000 BCE, to the early Greek civilizations of the Minoans and Mycenaeans.
How did the landscape affect the type of societies that developed in ancient Greece? (Link to CrossCurriculum: Sustainability (past social and economic systems, and access to the Earth’s resources,
the emergence of farming and settled communities)

Activity 5: Greek City-States and Governments
Students will read chapter 6.4: Government in Athens and Sparta before embarking on an
investigation of the types of government that existed in ancient Greece. The investigation will
include a discussion of Athenian democracy and its legacy on the Australian political system.
A list of online sources and books will be suggested for the inquiry.
Students are to create a Venn diagram to illustrate the similarities and difficulties between the two
types of government that developed in Athens and Sparta. They can choose to create the Venn
diagram using Microsoft Word or online:
http://www.readwritethink.org/files/resources/interactives/venn_diagrams/
The Venn diagram should include references to geographical, political, educational, cultural,
economic, legislative and civic topics. Emphasise that students include and discuss the geographical
features of Greece, the rights of the key groups in society; i.e. which groups had the right to
participate in decision making process, can vote; and which groups were excluded.
Students are required to add references to sources (websites, text books and video)
Democracy in Australia
As part of the activity the class will compare their findings with the democratic system in Australia
today and how democratic rights (the right to vote) have changed for various groups in Australian
society over time. Discus who can vote and include comparisons with the history of voting rights in
Australia, particular women’s right to vote and indigenous citizens rights (Cross-Curriculum Priority:
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures)
In the process, students will ‘Pair & Share’ discussing the three questions below before engaging in a
whole class discussion:
1. When did women in Australia ‘get’ the vote?
2. What happened with the right to vote in 1946?
3. What happened with the right to vote in 1967?
This activity could be extended with role play. Divide the students into groups (citizen, women,
slaves) for a lesson, day or week to experience the exclusion created by removing their right to
participate in decision making process regarding the decisions of how to complete tasks.

Activity 5: Handout - Greek City-States and Governments
You are required to read chapter 6.4: ‘Government in Athens and Sparta’ before embarking on an
investigation of the types of government that existed in ancient Greece. A list of online sources and
books is suggested below.
In your groups, create a Venn diagram to illustrate the similarities and difficulties between the two
types of government that developed in Athens and Sparta. You can use the Venn Diagram feature in
Microsoft Word or http://www.readwritethink.org/files/resources/interactives/venn_diagrams/
The Venn diagram should include references to geographical, political, educational, cultural,
economic, legislative and civic topics.
Write a summary of the similarities and differences discovered when you created the Venn diagram
(400 words). Make sure you include and discuss the geographical features of Greece, the rights of
the key groups in society; i.e. which groups had the right to participate in decision making process,
can vote; and which groups were excluded.
You are required to references your sources (websites, text books and video).
