Representing roles in Ancient Greek and Traditional Maori Societies

 At the end of term 3 we explored how we could use shapes to demonstrate how societies were organised in Pre-European Maori society and in the different Polis of Ancient Greece.

Here are some of the representations the children made in their thinking partnerships.

We tried to show population with the area of the shape used in each section of society. We found lots of interesting similarities and differences in the societies we learnt about. We talked about what was fair, good or bad for different groups of people.

We also talked about how some things in our society today have been influenced by some of these ideas.
