The Romans

-
We love learning about history in Room 8 and about the different kinds of people from long ago.

The last people we learned about were the Romans.

We learned about Roman children and about the weapons the Romans used. We even made our own Roman catapults!

We worked together in groups and thought of ideas for our own Roman mosaics, which we carefully planned and then made. It took a lot of work and we are very proud of them. 

Don't they look great?

Native Americans

We were super busy in Room 8 recently learning all about the Native Americans. Ms. Stewart broke us into groups and gave each group a different Native American tribe to do a project on. We worked well in class, in the library, and outside school to research all kinds of things to do with our tribe. Some topics we that we researched were food, clothes, homes, weapons, language, women, children and so much more. We enjoyed working in our groups and we gave a presentation to the class when we were finished. All of the projects were fantastic! W While we learned about Native Americans, we created our own Navajo clay pots. We carved symbols of the Navajo into the clay. We think they turned out pretty well!

It was a little difficult in the beginning, but once we got the hang of it we had loads of fun! It also helped us practice our mindfulness and to learn about complimentary colours. Here are some pictures of us hard at work!
