The Romans

 

This half term we have been finding out about Why the Romans invaded.

 

We have found out what the Celts looked like and decided they looked quite fierce with their blue paint. We thought that it would be quite difficult to attack Hill Forts.

 

We had a lovely time making our Roman Shields and trying out different attack formations.

 

We have made some story boards about Boudicca. She was a very frightening looking queen.

We have been doing lots of work on ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch.’

 

 

We have been:

• Reading and writing the story
• Making our own models of lighthouses
• Looking at photographs of a real lighthouse
• Investigating different sandwiches
• In maths we have made a bar graph showing our favourite sandwiches
• We have tasted lots of different types of breads
• We had a super picnic in our lovely playground, eating our homemade sandwiches

        

  

          

 

  

                                              

On Monday 14th September we worked with Nicholas Moreton, who is the sculptor who has been commissioned to make the sculpture for St Michael’s Square. He wanted us to help him think of some words that he could incorporate into his work. We are looking forward to seeing the real thing!
