Romans VR Workshop

Our workshops are a great way of bringing the curriculum to life without the hassle of organising a school trip!

During our Roman Rule workshop, your children will learn all about:

- The Colosseum in Rome
- The gladiators that fought inside the Colosseum
- Roman tactics and strategies during battle
- The Roman Senate
- Roman Engineering

Following on from this workshop, your pupils can write a diary entry from the perspective of a gladiator fighting inside the Colosseum. Our literacy bundles include lesson plans, example texts and LKS2 and UKS2 writing checklists.

English

Following on from our workshops, teachers can use our follow up literacy based lesson plans to encourage creative writing. Our lesson plans use a variety of different texts including information, diary and persuasive.

Romans

Using VR headsets, we can transport your class to see the Colosseum of Rome (then and now), the Roman Senate, example of Roman architecture and a typical Roman city/home.

We cover the following topics using VR:

Rainforests, Space, Egyptians, Mayans, Volcanoes, Wonders of the World, Under the Sea, WW1, Polar Regions, Digestive System, Romans, Stone Age, Mountains, Americas, The Tudors, Vikings, Circulatory System, Africa, Animals, India & Beyond, Journey Across China, The Respiratory System and Around the World.

Over a full day, we can deliver a maximum of 8 workshops with up to 32 children in each (maximum of 256 children in a day). We bring in 16 VR headsets and we usually run our workshops with children sharing one headset between two. However, if you would prefer, we can split classes into two groups to allow children to have one headset each.

We deliver our workshops on the school-site. We require one classroom or hall for the day.

Yes. We've worked with a number of SEN schools and the response/feedback to VR has been fantastic.
