Toga Times Task 8

 

 

What did the Romans leave us?

 

     
 
   
 

Starter Task:

Writing an Obituary

 
   
An obituary is a piece of writing about a person who has died. It tells us who the person was, what they did, how important they were and how other people's lives were changed by that person.
     
 

You are going to write an obituary for the

Roman Empire.

  
         
 
Your teacher will put you in groups of 3. Each group will write a section of the Obituary. These sections will be put together as one completed obituary.
 
         
 
     
 
         
 
Your Task
 
         
 
Even though the Roman Empire collapsed around 1,600 years ago, things that the Romans did still affect us every day, even though we don't always realise it. Take a look at the box below.
