The Romans
About The Romans
Travel back in time to Roman Scotland with our Learning team to explore ancient Rome through the objects they left behind.
What will my pupils do in the session?
Pupils will:
- Learn about life as a Roman by comparing modern objects to their ancient equivalents
- Discuss whether the Romans were really that different from us
- Interact and ask questions during the session
About Digital Schools Sessions
Our Digital Schools Sessions bring the museum to your classroom. Our free sessions are led by our team of Enablers and are broadcast using Microsoft Teams.
It’s a fun, free, interactive way to learn more about varied history topics and for children to experience a museum visit without leaving the classroom.
