Family Learning Week

• We came for Doctor Who but found out about what
  Romans used to eat and tasted some real Roman
  bread.
• I found out about Tudor food and clothes and
  Roman food. Ships biscuits in Tudor times were
  very salty which meant they wouldnt go mouldy on
  a long voyage, but they didnt taste as nice as
  the Roman bread.

  use these to do their homework
