Y3 – Roman Play in a Day

Wr had an amazing day this week when Ben from the Tree House Theatre came to teach the children all about how Romans invaded Britain in the form of a play.
Children were given a part (or two) in the play to act out and say lines.  We had elephants, wolves, Emperors, a Roman army, a Scottish Army and slaves to name but a few.  Children learnt a plethora of history, which we will explore in more detail.
Never in one performance did we see so many children perform spectacular deaths!  The grizzly bear was particularly good!! Children were also amused about what a sponge on a stick was used for!
It was a fantastic hook to our topic this term and no doubt children will go home with even more interesting facts to tell at home!!
