As you know we have been working on our sculptures over the past few weeks. This week we used gold, silver and copper metallic paint to paint them to make them look like they had been constructed out of different types of metal. Next week will be the final stage where we will add different interesting materials to them. What has been wonderful to see, is how some of the children in child led learning time have selected their own materials and made their own structures independently.

We are also continuing to learn about the Romans. This week we began to learn about Roman soldiers, the clothes they wore and the armour and weapons they used. We made our own swords and next week we will design and make our own shields. We are really looking forward to going to Vindolanda on Tuesday to find out more.
