In yesterday’s expedition lesson, we had a treasure hunt to discover facts about the Romans and complete the missing words on the sheet. This active lesson was really fun and it was incredible to see everybody being so supportive of each other and be able to retrieve and recite the facts they had found. I can’t wait to explore the Romans more with you all throughout this term.

Today was our first session in times tables olympics. The focus on this activity was incredible and the times table skills are very clear. Keep working hard and having this type of resilience in maths and you will be times tables rockstars in no time 3VT.

What a fantastic start to year 3 and the beginning of our Roman expedition. We had an epic day at Murton Park, from seeing the Roman villages to becoming Roman soldiers. Our adventures included learning how to hold a shield and spear, how to fight and use a sword, how to throw and use a javelin, how to write in Latin and lastly how to make an oil lamp out of clay. It was incredible to immerse ourselves into Roman life and have this experience!
