As historians, we were gathering facts…we had to use the information we were given to find out how Rome grew from a normal city into an almighty empire! I wonder if your children can tell you more about why and how the Romans became such a powerful force?

Continuing our expedition knowledge about The Great Fire of London, the children loved the competitive quiz we did in our history lesson, using Samuel Pepys diaries to find the answers.
Well done to Oliver, Peyton and Alex who were our medalists 10crew coins! #LovePlover

Today the children have been working as historians to find out what caused the Great Fire of London to start.
1M learnt about the causes of the fire of London by fixing the puzzle. Then we discussed the time frames of when and how and who were caused the fire. #LovePlover
3GS had a great day when we visited the Danum Museum and Art Gallery.
The workshop was fantastic, with a really informative introduction that helped us to learn about the Celts that lived in Britain before the Romans came. Then we learnt about what the Romans did for Doncaster. We had the opportunity to try on Celtic and Roman costumes and then we were able to handle genuine Roman artefacts.
In the afternoon we had a look around the museum, particularly at the Roman artefacts on display. We saw the very important Roman shield and a skeleton of a North African woman from the Roman era, found in Doncaster. Then, we chose objects that interested us a made a sketch of them.
Well done everyone.
