When
studying Ancient Greece and the Romans children can become easily confused
as to which gods are gods of what. Do an activity like this one early
on in the topic. Talk about the various gods and goddesses and get the
children to design a shield for each of them that depicts what they
are a god or goddess over.
You
could create shields as a class that could be hung on the walls of your
classroom or each child could make their own shields. A shield sheet
