Welcome to Year 3!

Our topic this term is called Disaster Strikes! We will be exploring the effect that the Romans had on the United Kingdom exploring the question: The Roman Empire didn't really have that much impact on Britain, did it?

After placing the Roman Empire on a world timeline, we will examine what an empire is and when Britain became part of the Roman Empire. We will then research what the Romans did that had an impact on Britain - including discussions about society, housing and beliefs. We will be talking about how we need to understand that primary sources need careful analysis and that they can contradict each other and identifying the impacts and limitations of the Roman Empire on Britain.

We will be using the following resources and texts to assist us while we analyse and debate the influence that the Romans had on the United Kingdom.
