Good morning Y5!

One more day to practise! Have you decided what you are going to do? Can you find

someone to film you? Below is a clip of some fun suggestions that others have done. I

have also put a clip of an incident called ‘The Bristol Bus Boycott’ a demonstration

against racist practises in the 1960’s that happened in the UK.

Today we are going to look at 3D shape and revise their properties as well as linking

these to their ‘net’. In English we will be learning about the slave trader, Edward

Colston, and linking this to the recent events in Bristol. Is it a coincidence that both the

Bus Boycott and the tearing down of Edward Colston’s statue occurred in Bristol? We

are coming towards the end of our topic on Ancient Greece and are looking at why this

amazing civilisation came to an end. As well as looking at a character called

‘Alexander the Great’!

Read the following text or listen to it using the link to read or listen to a reading (scroll down the web page to find the sound link)

Ancient Greece was one of the dominant civilizations in the Mediterranean and

the world for hundreds of years. Like all civilizations, however, Ancient Greece

eventually fell into decline and was conquered by the Romans, a new and rising

world power.

Alexander the Great

Years of internal wars weakened the once powerful Greek city-states of Sparta,

Athens, Thebes, and Corinth. Philip II of Macedon (northern Greece) rose to

power and, in 338 BC, he rode south and conquered the cities of Thebes and

Athens, uniting most of Greece under his rule.

Upon Philip II's death, his son, Alexander the Great, took control. Alexander was

a great general. He proceeded to conquer all of the lands between Greece and

India including Egypt.

Greece Divided

When Alexander the Great died, there was a huge gap in power. Alexander's

empire was divided among his generals. These new divisions soon began

fighting. Although the Greek culture had spread throughout much of the world,

it was politically divided.

The Rise of Rome

While the Greeks were in decline, a new civilization in Italy (the Romans) rose

to power. As Rome grew more powerful, the Greeks started to see Rome as a

threat. In 215 BC, parts of Greece allied with Carthage against Rome. Rome

declared war on Macedonia (northern Greece). They defeated Macedonia at

the Battle of Cynoscephalae in 197 BC and then again at the Battle of Pydna in

168 BC.

Battle of Corinth

Rome continued its conquest of Greece. The Greeks were finally defeated at

the Battle of Corinth in 146 BC. Rome completely destroyed and plundered the

city of Corinth as an example to other Greek cities. From this point on Greece

was ruled by Rome. Despite being ruled by Rome, much of the Greek culture

remained the same and had a heavy influence on Roman culture.

Main Causes of decline:

There were many factors that went into the decline and fall of Ancient Greece.

Here are some of the primary causes:

• Greece was divided into city-states. Constant warring between the city states

weakened Greece and made it difficult to unite against a common enemy like

Rome.

• The poorer classes in Greece began to rebel against the aristocracy and the

wealthy.

• The city-states of Ancient Greece had different governments and were

constantly changing alliances.

• Greek colonies had a similar culture, but were not strong allies to Greece or

any of the Greek city-states.

• Rome rose to power and became stronger than the individual city-states of

Greece.How many City States

can you see?

Look at this clip to find

out more about these.

Interesting Facts About the Decline and Fall of Ancient GreeceThe Romans used a new type of fighting formation called the "maniple."

It was more flexible than the Greek military formation called the

"phalanx.“ Watch the clips to find out how they were different.

Activities:Take a ten question quiz about the

decline and fall of

Ancient Greece based on what you

have just read.

Find out more about Alexander the Great, take

the quiz and make a fact file or character

profile for him using one of the templates (or

create your own).

Although the Romans conquered the Greek peninsula in 146 BC, they did not

take control of Egypt until 31 BC. Some historians consider this to be the end

of the Hellenistic Period.

The Greek language continued to be the main language used in the eastern

part of the Roman Empire for hundreds of years.

Life in Greece continued much the same under Roman rule.

weaknesses of Ancient Greece?
