Elm were getting creative this week

Being creative was the driver behind our learning this week.

Elm class have been studying how crime and punishment has changed throughout varying periods of history. To coincide with the Roman Period, we created our very own Roman Curse tablets which were used on criminals who weren’t captured by the Urban Cohort. The message was often linked to a God, where the tablet would then be offered to a statue of the god in a temple. Using air-dry clay, and small wooden tools we etched our messages in.

Halloooweeeeennn!!

As an end of half-term treat, we used glass jars and tissue paper to create Halloween inspired candle holders. Designs varied from cats, to ghosts to even a pink witch!
