Market Place Activity: Roman Society - Who was a typical Roman?

(0)
This fun and active learning lesson has been designed to help students investigate who was a typical Roman through a market place activity on Roman Society. This is followed up by a selection of optional activities including writing an essay on who was a typical Roman, a knowledge quiz or a heads and tails activity, depending upon the ability of your class. This lesson is designed to get your students out of their chairs, moving around and working together. The idea is to print off the information slides and post them around your classroom for your students to gather and share or print enough of them for group work. When you purchase this lesson, you will be able to download a 27 slide PowerPoint Presentation which includes information slides, historical sources, starters, plenaries, tasks, activities, templates, writing frames, model answers as well as links to relevant video clips. For stretch and challenge, I have also included an extension slide on a day in the life of a slave. This slide could be given as to a SEND student to work through with their TA. I have also uploaded a PDF version for people who may not have PowerPoint. I’ve also included two possible homework tasks, including designing a Roman Values Poster to contrast with the British Values provided at the start of the lesson. For more information, please see the preview. The topics covered are Emperors, Senators, Freemen, Freedmen and Freedwomen and finally Roman Slaves. The aims and objectives are: Theme: The Roman Empire Know: What was the structure of Roman Society? Understand: How was power and wealth shared out in Roman Society? Analyse: Who was a typical Roman? Skills: Source Analysis, Cause, Consequence & Collaboration WILF – What Am I Looking For? Can You Describe: What was the structure of Roman Society? Can You Explain: How was power and wealth shared out in Roman Society? Can You Evaluate: Who was a typical Roman?
