Year 5's Parthenon Adventure at the British Museum
On Thursday 12th June, Year 5 set of on an adventure to explore the past at the British Museum. Each class arrived at the entrance of the Ancient Greek exhibit and began a scavenger hunt that was set thousands of years ago. Using tablets to participate in the challenge via augmented reality, the children searched for ancient artefacts such as the chest of Poseidon, and uncovered the meaning of key vocabulary in the context of history. After that, the completed a more paper based scavenger hunt, completing a quiz using information in displays about ancient Greek childhood, medicine, industry and clothing. It was a fantastic day, and wouldn't have been possible without our wonderful parent helpers!
