charlotte's homework

In my home learning I learned about lots of information such as what kind of food Greeks eat and what the climates like, also the Greek gods and the Olympic games and the last thing was about the battle of troy;  I found it interesting because the Greeks built a wooden horse to hide in wile the other Greek slide away. Also I  liked how the Greeks eat because its a lot healthier than some other cultures; they eat olives and fish and and other different proteins. The Olympic games is really funny because men usually didn't wear any clothing in the Olympic games and that's why women were not allowed to watch. I also found out that the climate is EXTREMELY hot in the summer and mild in the winter.

On Friday the 6th of January 2012 class 5\6G of Robin Hood Primary School went to see the wonderful musical Annie at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in Leeds. But before seeing the Wonderful Musical we took part in a brilliant backstage tour where we saw the stage (which was shaped like an amphitheatre so everybody could see the play which was going on)before the actual play started,we also went to the dressing room and we visited the green room where the actors hang out before there big preformances!We also got to take part in a amazing workshop where we got to play very fun acting games and act out the Greek myth of Pandora's box where we all wore masks just like the actors of an amphitheatre did!
