Our week started with our trip to Verulamium Park and Museum. We really immersed ourselves in Roman life; we entered Verulamium via the gate and were wowed by the mosaic floor at the hypocaust. Once we were in the museum we explored the Roman exhibits, drawing artefacts and finding out fascinating facts. Finally, we dressed up as Roman people and were given a shopping list. We then worked in groups, handling artefacts at market stalls to choose the things we needed. Please see the photos below.
In the classroom we explored more Roman artefacts and thought about what objects might have been used for.
Our Roman theme continued in Maths, we learnt about Roman numerals and told the time using a clock face with Roman numerals. We also learnt this song to help us remember the number of days in each month of the year.

In other news we continued to write our gripping narrative about the dream giver and created fact files about Ramadan. In Art we continued to create our articulated animals.
We hope you have a lovely weekend,
Year 3 team.
