Lately, upsetting things have been happening in the world and our students are very much aware of them.

This resource is a 5th grade or 6th grade discussion based writing unit discussing who was the most influential figure from Ancient Greece: Aristotle, Socrates or Alexander the Great. The unit has been split into four separate lessons which will take students approximately 40-50 minutes each. The Google Slides activity is ideal for distance learning and perfect for students learning about World History or Ancient Civilisations.

The first lesson involves students retrieving facts from informational texts about Socrates, Aristotle and Alexander the Great, and typing these on to an included fact sheet. In the second lesson students need to use these facts to write three to four paragraphs about the individual people. In the third lesson students need to use prompt sheets to write up an introduction and a conclusion. In the final lesson students need to check their draft paragraphs for mistakes before typing up their work using the template provided.

NO PREP is needed!

This activity is an online resource, that uses Google Slides, and is linked to your Google Drive. It can be completed by students online using tablets or computers. If you are unsure how to allow the students to have their own individual copy take a look at the instructional video below:

The resource also comes in a PDF format, which can be printed.

Please ensure when you download this resource into Google Drive that you are logged in to the gmail account where you wish to store the activity. In the past teachers have downloaded resources into their school account in error. Thanks :)
