GMS 6th grade social studies students spent time role-playing what it was like to be in the Senate during Ancient Rome. They learned about and practiced "bribing" other senate members during their simulations in order to feed their poor citizens, made plans to invade Gaul and other new or disputed territories, and debated whether they should or would build new infrastructure like aqueducts or roads.
