History, Geography and RE

Our new topic this term is called "Roman around Ancient Britain" (get it?). We will be learning about what like was like for Ancient Britons before the Romans invaded, what it was like while they were here and how they changed Britain forever.

BBC Class Clips Here is a link to some great animations and clips on life in Roman Britain and the Roman Empire. Use them to help you learn and research.

Mosaics

We have learned a lot about life in Roman Britain by what has been left behind, including mosaics. Here is a presentation featuring some beautiful tiled artwork to inspire you. Once you have looked at the slides, you could have a go at your own - you could draw one or create a real mosaic using pieces of coloured paper; dried peas, beans and lentils; Lego bricks; beads or many other things. Take a picture of what you create and send it in to the year 4 email - we'd love to see them.
