Giant A3 Ancient Rome Crossword Puzzle

This is a giant A3 sized crossword puzzle that I use to review our Ancient Rome unit at the end of term.

I usually let children work in pairs if they want to. Also, initially I won’t let them consult any resources or ask questions, just to see how far they get first.

There are more than 20 questions in total! Here are some of them to give you an idea of the level required.

1. A common person or person not of the patrician class.
2. The main unit of the Roman army. It generally had around 5400 soldiers and was divided up into groups of men called cohorts and centuries.
3. A group of prestigious men who advised the consuls.
4. A large oval shaped stadium used for chariot races.
5. A manmade channel used for delivering water to Roman towns.

This puzzle is would be suitable for upper KS2 and KS3.
