Year 4’s exploration of the Shang Dynasty continues.

Over the past few weeks the children have looked at the definition of the word ‘hierarchy’ and how the social order of civilisation started thousands of years ago.

The children have now began to create a script based on different levels of the hierarchy:

Royal Family,
Warriors, Priests and Nobles,
Artisans,
Merchants,
Farmers,
Slaves.

Working in groups the children are now writing a play to re-enact to the class.
