We will be learning all about Italy in the middle room for the next few weeks. We are currently learning about life in Italy. We have found that there are many differences and similarities between life in Ireland and life in Italy.

We are using books, maps, pictures and the internet to learn about the geography of Italy, life in Italy and of course the history of the great Roman Empire!

Here are some good websites you can use to do some research at home!
