As part of our Romans topic, we have been working in groups to research different aspects of Roman life. The “mini topics” that we were looking into were food and drink, clothes, houses, school, buildings, leisure, Gods and Goddesses and inventions.
We used our non-fiction reading skills to look in books to find interesting facts and then practiced note-taking by writing down the information we found. Then we used these notes to make our own non-fiction posters, leaflets and booklets to share the information with everyone else. We then presented our information to our classmates – we were the teachers!
We really enjoyed being responsible for our own learning and sharing what we discovered with everyone. This was a super way to finish our topic on Romans.
