The Grade 6 ORT books continue from Grade 5 with the time runners training under Mortlock to go out on missions where Viran activity has been detected on the Time Web. They use a special weapon called a zap trap to capture the Virans. In the G6 books they travel to Rome – 44BCE and encounter Senators on their way to assassinate Julius Casear, Georgian England, Elizabethan London where they encounter Elizabeth II & Shakespeare, a British warship in 1805 during the Battle of Trafalgar and Bletchley Park, England – 1941 where the code of the famous German Enigma Machine was to be broken.
I love teaching these books as I also get to introduce a lot of interesting historical/cultural information and I enjoy the class discussions regarding issues such as technology and cultural change, development of western society, etc.
