Topic Term 4 and 5 - Through the Ages
This project teaches children about British prehistory from the Stone Age to the Iron Age, including changes to people and lifestyle caused by ingenuity, invention and technological advancement.
We will be learning about everyday life in the Stone Age; the tools they used; what Stone Age settlements and monuments looked like; who the Cheddar Man was; who the Beaker folk were; metalworking in prehistoric times; wealth and power; who the Amesbury Archer was; the farming boom, invention and ingenuity; Iron Age hoards; hillforts and homes; Celtic warriors and Celtic beliefs. Phew, we are covering A LOT!
