Primary Dance KS1: Let's Move. Life in the rainforest. The first dance session the contrasting movements of sloths and leopards are explored.

Cat Sandion has the first of three sessions exploring life in the rainforest. Today she focuses on the sloth and the leopard, exploring how the sloth loves to curl up asleep, then wake up and hang upside down in the trees. We also explore how the sloth reaches up into the trees to eat fruit. Down below, on the forest floor, the leopards practise their fast running, then prowl around the sloth's tree, looking up hungrily.

Time and Tune: Romans!: 4. Oh, the strata of society

4. Oh, the strata of society

Primary Music KS2: Romans - BBC Teachaudioaudioaudioaudioaudioaudioaudioaudioaudioaudiodocument

Exploring the layers of Roman society...from Emperor down to slave.

Oh, the strata
Of society,
Down from Emperor to slave, 
Oh, they tell you
What you ought to do
And just how you should behave 
And the manners
That you have to show
When superiors you pass... 
Roman people,
Neatly organized,
Into layers, class by class.

From the toga
With a purple stripe,
To the sack-cloth down below, 
Know your status
In society,
What you wear and who you know, 
Status symbols?
Own a villa
And a garden and a horse...
Make your slaves do
What you want them to,
When you want them to, of course.

At the bathhouse
Are you pampered?
At the theatre, where’s your seat? 
Are you wealthy?
Are you healthy?
Are you part of the elite?
Yes, the senator
And the citizen,
Seeking privilege, no doubt... 
Seeking power, seeking influence, 
Are they ‘in’, or are they ‘out’?

Oh, the strata
Of society,
Down from Emperor to slave, 
Oh, they tell you
What you ought to do
And just how you should behave 
And the manners
That you have to show
When superiors you pass... 
Roman people,
Neatly organized,
Into layers, class by class.
