Homework!
This term, the year 4 teachers are setting a project for the whole term.
We would like pupils to imagine they live in Roman times and we are asking them what types of leisure activities the Romans took part in. We would like pupils to produce a piece of work that reflects this which will be showcased before the half-term holidays. The work could be a model, or a piece of art, it could be a story written from the perspective of someone alive during the time or a fact file. If pupils choose to create a piece of art we are asking that they write a few lines to explain what it is and how it was used by Romans. For example: a 3D model of an amphitheatre complete with facts, a game that the Romans may have played complete with a set of instructions, or it could be some research into how Romans maintained personal hygiene!
