Term 4 - Emperors and Empires

We are brave powerful warriors and will meet in battle. We will divide into two warring groups: the Celts and the Romans. In our battle games, who will be victorious?

Through historical enquiry, chronology and empathy children will explore the role of the Romans and the lasting impact that they had on Britain. Children will meet a Roman and gather information about where they came from, why they came and what evidence was left behind. Standing in the way of the Romans was Boudicca. Was she a hero or villain?

All of this will enable the children to reflect on Roman Britain life and how the Romans affected the course of England’s history.
