Stone Age in Year 3

 


On Tuesday 4th October, Year 3 will be immersed in a Stone Age workshop that will be visiting the school for the day.

The children will be exploring what life was like during the Stone Age, through the interactive workshop, which will take us through the timeline of mankind and the important developments that have made us who we are today.

The Stone Age workshop gives children the opportunity to discuss, play games, take part in activities and explore artifacts from the Stone Age.

On the day, the children can dress up as someone from the Stone Age or wear their school uniform. Please see below for ideas of what to wear.

Dressing as Celts

Spike up your hair. Paint spiral designs on your face and arms with blue face paint. Girls and boys can be warriors.

If you want to be a high status or rich Celt, make a gold TORC to wear around your neck. Rich Britons wore chain mail. This you can make from onion bags sprayed silver .These you can get from local supermarkets or greengrocers. Make a shield from a large piece of strong cardboard and paint with spiral designs or copy the designs here. Put a strip of strong card across the back of your shield to use as a handle. The shield should cover from you chest to your knees. Most Celts fought with spears. Only very rich Celts had swords. (Maximum sword length is 50cms.) Only use cardboard to make any weapons.
