Year 3 Stone Age Day
Year 3 had a fabulous time on Tuesday when we welcomed Kit and Memma from 'Prehistoric Experiences' for a Stone Age day. The weather was not on our side but we were able to set up camp in the hall with multiple artefacts including animal skins, spears, axes and more!
We headed outside once the rain cleared to light our own campfire. Our special chanting helped it to work!
The children have been learning about the three different periods within the stone age and how they changed. They also learnt about how food was hunted, gathered and eaten which was beautifully demonstrated by Leo J. He played the part of a bison who was hunted and whose brain was eaten for protein and calories!
The children experienced different jobs and were able to handle many different artefacts which Kit and Memma had expertly crafted or collected. The children were incredibly enthusiastic and are absolutely brimming with Stone Age knowledge!
