Literacy: non-fiction about the Romans

We looked again at the diary of Gaius Fulvius in the Literacy World non-fiction book. We answered some hard questions about the diary, and we tried writing the diary of Gaius Fulvius's friend, Marcus. Mr Hannay came to the classroom and told us some interesting history about Hadrian's Wall, which is on the line between England and Scotland. The Scottish soldiers were too tough for the Romans to beat in battle. They were Mr Hannay's ancestors.


Next week in literacy we will be looking at newspaper reports. If you can find a newspaper at home, ask your parents if you are allowed to bring a page of it to school, with a headline and other writing on it. Do not worry if you cannot find a newspaper. It is no problem.
