In this lesson, students will learn how Athens was governed as a direct democracy. They will learn what the key words- oligarchy, monarchy and tyranny is and will understand how the direct democratic model worked in Athens.
They will also learn about the Athenian criminal court system and will then enact two different scenarios using drama to better understand the systems. They will be given two scenarios to write down their arguments either for/against and as a class will role play these.
This lesson is heavily guided with all of the information needed included. A video and a quiz also makes it engaging for all.
This lesson is intended for KS2 but can easily be modified to suit KS3.
