Today we used the VR headsets to further our learning and understanding of the Holocaust. We visited the Holocaust memorial in Berlin and afterwards recorded our questions. We then researched our questions and discussed our findings with the class. The technology was a helpful way of exploring our Topic in more detail.

Comparing food in Ancient Rome and Modern Scotland
We used historical evidence to compare daily life in Ancient Rome with our daily lives. We discovered that some things are the same and some things are very different. We would be very surprised to find stuffed dormouse on the school lunch menu.
Ancient Roman mosaics
We used our ICT skills to research our Social Studies topic and found out that the Romans decorated their villas with mosaics. These are a great source of Primary Evidence about the Roman way of life. We recreated them in our Art using coloured paper tiles. It took a lot of time and effort, but as you can see, it was worth it!
