History:
The class will study classical relief sculptures that tell stories of great battles and heroic deeds. You will create your own of either a contemporary or historical event.
Discuss relief sculpture, with references to Greek and Roman classical sculpture. Discuss a significant event you are studying in history or a current event you would like to depict in a relief.
You should describe the entire event from the beginning to the end, and describe key characters and background information. Based on the story the students chose have them sketch out their ideas. Distribute cardboard cut outs.
Number each one in sequence. You can then attach paper cut outs and draw their depiction of the story on their board. Make sure the boards will line up and that all the pictures are coming together ok. After the work has been completed connect all the pieces with tape or tinfoil or staples.
After this you can create a narrative of the event below the relief to describe in detail this event in the context of other events in history.

History
Life in ancient
The ancient Greeks did not have one king or queen. They lived in city-states. Each city-state was a separate political unit. The ancient Greeks all spoke the same language. They believed in the same gods. They shared a common heritage. They perceived themselves as Greeks. The ancient Greeks referred to themselves, however, as citizens of their individual city-states. Each city-state (polis) had its own personality, goals, laws and customs. Ancient Greeks were very loyal to their city-state.
