Year 4 Debating

In the Autumn term Year 4 were learning about Ancient Greece. In their History lesson they talked about what democracy is and how it originated in Ancient Greece. The children sorted into categories those that were/were not allowed to vote at the time. Then they had their own class debate for/against lowering the voting age in the UK.
