First of two well presented and active lessons introducing the Romans (buy the bundle, it works out 2 for 1).

  • Numeracy/Liteacy/Historical thinking settler (I use these as a standard settler - works a treat once they’re in a routine).
  • Context slide (I like to have a tiny bit of teacher talk - just to set the scene and link today;s learning to what they’ve already done)
  • Visual map activity - what do we already know? Think/Pair/Share
  • Writing comprehension task
  • Cartoon creation and story sort.
  • Group discussions of the advantages of Rome’s position + class feedback.
  • Paragraph writing task
  • Literacy support mat including in resources.
  • Map of Empire included in resources.

Hope it helps!
