Social Studies Project details for grade 7



Imagine the Romans had newspapers like we have today. Write a series of headlines which might have appeared in the period 750BC to 270BC.
You should think about:

  • The name of the newspaper. For e.g., Roman Times, Roman Chronicle etc.
  • The events of a newspaper for Roman readers would choose to headline.
  • The type of newspaper you are writing for (for example, a more serious paper like The Times.
  • The length of your headline (usually only four words).
  • Your focus (for example, emphasizing the Roman victories or emphasizing the enemies’ defeats).
  • Whether you miss out any events on purpose.
  • You could include advertisements, classifieds etc.
  • Crimes and criminals page etc.
