About this worksheet
Year 5 pupils match Ancient Greek achievements to what they mean today, across three tasks. First they join Parthenon, amphora, theatre and masks to four pictures. Next they write letters to match six legacies, from democracy and oligarchy to the Olympics and the marathon, to their definitions. A third set pairs Hippocrates, Archimedes, Pythagoras, Herodotus, the Greek alphabet and trial by jury with their impact on the modern world. Question 7 asks how one legacy still affects life in Britain. The sheet follows the England National Curriculum for KS2 history, and the answer page lists every letter.
