Broad and Balanced...<br />

Y4<br />

Class 4 are coming to the end of their topic about Romans and we have enjoyed<br />

learning, specifically, about the great Punic wars. We have learnt that<br />

Rome had a mighty military army on land, but were less capable on the sea.<br />

However, the Cathaginians (from Africa) were a strong naval fleet. Both these<br />

powerful civilisations battled each other over decades, and we have created a<br />

story grid to show these events as well as recorded ourselves retelling these<br />

amazing events.<br />

To conclude our art for this term, we have designed some Roman shields and<br />

plan to create these before testing some Roman tactical formations whilst under<br />

attack - less arrows and more paper balls.<br />

“Year 4 have also been attending Forest school sessions which have been an<br />

amazing experience. We have gone on a bug hunt, built our own fires and<br />

worked in a large group to build a Roman aqueduct, UP HILL!!!
