This site is designed to be a flexible programme which can be used to supplement classwork on the Romans, or be used as differentiation material. It has been structured so that children can dip into it and try some of the Challenges and continue them at home if they have computers with internet connection. The main purpose is to have fun and learn at the same time! Below are the detailed aims of the site.
